Love the video Mikester, very entertaining and you sound fine.

My advice is to play the soprano sax less like a clarinet - e.g. increase the angle so the instrument is playing more out in front of you...and not with the bell pointing towards the ground / floor...this will also open up your throat for playing...good luck...

Yes, yes, yes - it's the secret of good tone!

Brilliant Mike.
Great video, loved it, mistakes and all.
That, my friend, was an honest show of playing. It sounded damned fine to me for a first attempt after 25 years and it can only get better.
It's good that you have a sense of humour and don't take it too seriously; it's about having fun and you can see that's what you are doing.
If I ever made a video, it would be similar but with a lot more swearing involved...
Keep it up. I look forward to seeing your next video, sir.

When I try to video myself it always seems like something that's going to end up in "Auntie's Bloomers" or "You've been Framed". For me, not bursting out laughing is a major feat. I agree with ac30Kev, you sound pretty alright after 25 years and can only get even better.

No un-boxing video from me. I'm waaaay too ugly and I can't stand to hear myself talking on a video.

I think I've seen those on the internet, have you got any of you playing the sax?
