[QUOTE="thomsax, post: 485927, member: 17"] That goes for me to. I'll soon turn 66. I started to play saxophone just before Christmas 1968. I wanted to play the music that I heard on the radio. It was rock and blues. I have done a lot things over the years. Different jobs, educations, sport (football and ice-hockey on diffent levels) ... but my goal with the saxophone has been almost the same over the years: To be able to play (easy) blues and rock songs with others. I also wanted to know more about the music and what I was playing. I can't see anything wrong with that? I'm still playing and "working" with easy songs. I play tenor and bari and try to do some singing as well. And I also like to run projects. Some guys can't read music and get so nervous when they see sheet music ... some guys can't play without the sheet music in front of them ... some guys says the know the song but they are playing something else ... some guys are vegetarians/vegans ... some guys prefer té to coffee ... some guys wants cheese on thier burgers ... some guys can eat 7 cinnamon bun ...... . Here is a sample of an easy song. I like to sings so I learn the lyrics as well . My own notes when I was the only hornplayer. When I played something that I liked, I wrote it down. Lead sheet and 3-horn parts ..... . I know it's nerdy ... . "Högklackat" (hi-heel ...) not me singing or the group I played with that is playing.
