Gad, yes, although I wasn't following it, we were standing right in the front. I would always blow the stuff away from me as much as I could. And being this was a choir of hired soloists, we all were blowing away like mad!!! I also have no qualms about waving my hands to try to wave it away. If they don't like it, they have never said anything.
