New to Sax

[Pegwill]

Hi all
I've always wanted to play the alto saxophone and have now just got around to buying one, although it hasn't arrived yet. Seems there is so much to learn and so little time. I look forward to meeting you all as time goes on.

Regards
Bill

Good Morning and welcome William. We are very formal around here.
You've bought a member of the finest instrument family in the World, pipe organs excepted. Enjoy the roller coaster ride.

Hi Bill, welcome. Yes, it's addictive, there are lots of us and there sems to be no cure.
Perhaps next time Mr Thomas thinks about renaming the forum he could consider Saxophonists Anonymous.

Hi Bill, welcome to the cafe, still waiting for the arrival? I bet your postman thinks your a little strange, peering through the curtains every time he approaches, seeing you lurking behind the front door, waiting to pounce! )) There's no cure mate, its a downward spiral from now on. When it does arrive, it'll be worse, every time you go out, you'll wish you were back at home, stroking it, touching it, cleaning it, dare I say it....playing it ))
Enjoy it, you'll wish you took it up years ago.

Yes I think we all wish that (or nearly all) .... same as most of us wish we'd had the time/discipline to practise more/better!!

Welcome, Bill
