I am a blues vocalist - have voice, will travel.

Cool - I read someone saying they carry a rain jacket when it is cold - I am starting April 1 ( to honor the Cosmic Fool ) and am totally enamored with my Marmont windshirt - so I think if I decide...

I know there has been a lot of discussion and I have read a bunch of it but I am considering a Packa and wondered of those who use them - how many take a rain jacket like a Precip as well? Do you...
