I've been having a problem lately where I get the hiccups during performances. I'm currently working at Hersheypark in Penn. which consists of 5 strolling sets (my quintet plays songs while walking around the park). It's been over a month now, and there hasn't been a set that's gone by when I haven't gotten the hiccups at least once. It's really bothersome because I play constantly during the sets. I don't have this problem during marching band, or in a large ensemble situation when I'm sitting down. Does anyone else have this problem? If so, how can I get rid of it, or keep it from happening so often? I know it sounds strange, but trust me, it's the truth. Reply here, or email me if you want. Thanks in advance.
