By all means. It's an interesting trade off between the barn and the dance
tent in terms of stagnant and circulating air. Some nights in the barn the
stagnant air from the dumpster/burger fryer joint/people smoking was making
it hard for me to breathe, hate to think of what the wind instrument
players were going through.
One big problem we had in the tent was the downpour night, and wetness was
creeping in on us. I think we dropped the panels near the musicians than
night, if it's going to make life easier on the musicians it could be a
standard procedure to leave that corner of the tent down at night. Thanks
again to Filip who did some jurry-rigging of the flaps.
To be fair, the barn leaks too (remember 2nd Friday of last year?) but
we've got a bit more buffer in the barn from the outside.
