Hiand welcome,

I'm new here too, and have been pleased to see quite a few female saxophonists. I keep trying to get my 12 year old daughter to have a blow but she says it's a boys instrument, she's learning the flute.

Maybe I'll start a thread on saxy ladies...

Whoops, just noticed the 'lady saxophonist' thread, and very interesting it is too.

 

[Tenor Sax]

Thanks, everyone, for the welcome.

Chris - my biggest little boy used to walk under my sax and bang his head on it, so it almost knocked my teeth out. I don't practice with him in the room any more.

Know what ya mean. I have broken more reeds than I care to think about due to prying hands.

However I let her have a blow a few days back. 3 Star MP Jazz 3 reed, Me holding the keys and two excellent notes blown. A star in the making. Too much spit to clean off after

:x

I don't know how I manage to fit it all in either - my little girl ha ha is now 26 with her own 8-year-old, they are round nearly every day, the rest of Doreen's family lives in Welwyn, my mum lives 10 minutes away, and I am the family taxi-driver, decorator, electrician and general handyman. Good job I love 'em all, really, and you know what they say - if you want something doing, ask a busy man....


Thank goodness I do a job that allows me to practise during the day!

Cheers, Bob

As you say ask a Busy man.

I'm 46 but closer to 47. With a Lad of Fourteen (who thinks he's 21 ) two girls of 4 and 8. A full time job, a wife who works 4 night as a Nurse. And just too fill in the gaps, I spend around 10 Hours a week working on the In-laws Garden and general repairs.

In my spare Time :laugh: I try to fit in Practise sessions and White Water kayaking.
