It's raining right here, right now, and I'm not playing. Won't be doing that until later in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Drinkwater Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Concertinas and the weather.For some odd reason every time I play/practice my concertina it rains! Does this happen to you? I presume that you are playing indoors, so you aren't exactly getting wet. What about the poor people who busk for a living? Do they need to employ an assistant to hold an umbrella over them, to stop them getting wet? Mind you, in this sort of weather, they'd hardly have much of an audience anyway. The only living things enjoying this sort of weather at the moment, are the plants in my garden and ducks! Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Of course it does! It's a well known fact that I just made up that Charles Wheatstone was working on a weather machine when he accidentally created the Concertina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimLucas Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 For some odd reason every time I play/practice my concertina it rains! So does it stop raining when you stop playing, or is it just that it rains all the time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
