re: [Harp-L] If you can't stand the heat...

If you have power you can have fans. Try to put them on a separate 
circuit if you can. Big (like 20 inch) fans on stands can be purchased 
for under $20.00 and one per player aimed well ( to the side and a 
little low and forward, facing each player) can make a huge difference. 
Even at medium speed they push a lot of air. And they really aren't 
noisy enough to get in the way of even a reasonably low amplified band.
