All good advice.  The only thing I will add is: figure out what harps 
you're going to be using on the session, and make sure you have a backup 
harp for every piece in case your primary fails.  It's not fun to get 
halfway through the piece, have your harp fail, and then have to finish 
the piece with a harp played in a different position--especially if the 
band liked what you were playing up to that point.
