Artinum Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 Ick. I loathe saxophone music. Even the solo in "Baker Street"? What happens when you play Final Fantasy VII with everyone called Cloud? It gets quite confusing... https://ff7crowdofclouds.wordpress.com/ Link to comment
Silo Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 Even the solo in "Baker Street"? Yes. The fifes in fife and drum music are pretty much the only woodwinds I like. My family did this stuff when I was a kid so I like it but all of the other woodwinds are too reedy and whispery for me. 2016 goals: Hit goal weight. Build muscle.2015 goals: Get stronger, stop loathing squats and get better at them - DONE!!!2014 goal: Lose 52.5 lbs. - DONE!!! 12/13/14 MFP Link to comment

My personal favorite is the alto. I played alto and tenor for several years. I would still, but I don't know where I'd fit time to play into my schedule or money for a decent sax into my budget.

You looked so skinny and fit back then.Instructor: Looked?Girl: Uh--I mean-- at the time you were young, right? You looked your age, that's all.Instructor: WERE YOUNG?
