Re: Mystery Solved
Hmmm... Is it possible that you worked up a decent-but-not-obvious sweat while playing? On rare occasion, I've found that the local temperture & humidity combination can bring on a surprising amount of, uhmm, physiological response, for me showing up as short-term clouded finish. Thinking about it now, I realize that that's mostly in summertime, either outdoors or in w/out A/C.
FWIW, I've softened more than one thick leather strap by recalling that the same leather was used on harnesses, so left 'em outdoors in storm & sun, soaked in a bucket, few days in the freezer, etc. No damage done. If yours has excess oil seeping into the shirt, that might be a solution.

Our mistakes weren't quite so easy to undo
But by all those roads, my friend, we've travelled down
I'm a better man for just the knowin' of you."
