That could only be the plumbers cleavage the audience might see as I lean 
in and have my head stuck just above the strings so's I can hear the false 
beats over the din and through my earplugs.

When the tech rider requires it or I am in attendence.

See above, but guest artists, mostly. I gave up going to most faculty 
recitals years ago. Something about trying to have a life, I think...

The most fun was a number of years ago when I had to touch up a 
harpsichord, portativ organ and piano between performances of the Christmas 
program while the first audience of 1600 was leaving and the next was 
coming in.  I insist on a comp aisle seat ticket fairly close to stage so's 
I can zip up and check the situation w/o "going up the down staircase".  I 
always joke with the box office manager by saying "no tickee, no tunee" 
when I'm getting my comp tickets... ;-}
