I'm sure you'll be used to where you should break off to last the show as you rehearse it till you are sick of it.

So concentrate on your body and the lips will come, also don't overplay the stand tunes in the first half.

Yes. The biggest thing: don't blow yourself out until what matters is past.

Tell you band director this, keep everything relaxed in the first half, then go out and play your show. Now in the second half go out there and have fun... just be careful.
Hope this helps!

I'm sure you'll do great. Pacing is important, but figure out the pacing after the first 150 times of rehearsal and you'll get a better idea of what to do to play effectively.
