So... I hadn't played my horn over the weekend.
Today, as I was about to warm up, I check for water; naturally,(since the practice room is cold) there is water.
I pull my slide out to empty and
a huge roach pops out.
I hope it wasn't carrying eggs...I will get a chem clean asap. (I'm trading this horn)

It was alive.
I think this will forever affect my playing career (that I don't have)...

Heck, it may have pushed your next chem clean back by a week or so.... who knows, it may have been in there quite a while and saved you some serious bucks.
Sounds like a great business opportunity to me- kind of the 'Green' alternative to putting all those noxious chemicals through your horn...
