Viola Fail!

I had my Spoleto audition today and my shoulder rest fell off three times.  During excerpts.  WTF.  I haven't had this problem in months, and I just bought a new shoulder rest which has been securely affixed to my viola as of late.  Anyway, I played ok, but was slightly put off by the circumstances, since I kept having to stop and start mid-excerpt.  Aargh.  Oh well!  Didn't want to go anyway.  (Although I think the universe picked a strange time to have my shoulder rest start falling off.)  This is sort of like what happened.
