[Trombone-l] Help! Fat lip and 2 gigs today (Canada Day)

[Patrick & Lisa Bates]

Two gigs today,bass bone with a big band (parade float) and then a small
horn later with a nine piece. Stepped on a big broom in the shop (stupid!!!)
about 20 minutes ago and got it right in the face. Definite fat lip. Cold
water immediately, icing it now. Took some ibuprofen in an attemp to keep
the swelling down. Any other suggestions? there's no subs available.........
