I’ll spare you the picture. I took a foul tip to the mouth at my daughter’s softball game this morning. Split my lip pretty good. it’ll be fine when it heals. My question is about the when. I am scheduled to play in a concert band a week from tomorrow. it’s set up sort of like a clinic band. we’ll rehearse twice and then play the concert all on one day. The doctor who said I didn’t need stitches was dubious of me playing the gig, but she also didn’t have any experience playing brass instruments. It’s a pretty casual gig and the part will still have two players if I can’t go, so it’s just for my own benefit at this point; and I don’t need to get a sub.

Any hope of getting through that without splitting my face back open?
