Always wanted to play one most of my life, but I WILL do it someday!
I went to see Lionel Richie in concert a month ago and the lad on the Sax was BRILLIANT!!!! He did a solo tune for a few minutes and did great additions to Lionel's songs. That made the concert IMO.
When we're getting married in Aug, we chose our band because of 2 things. They are fantastic at playing traditional Scottish Ceilidh music (a must for a wedding!!!!) and the lead singer plays the Sax and does geat reditions of popular songs. He's gonna play it for our first dance too - Richard Marxx - Right here waiting.
Oh yeh, the price is scary for a new one, but don't really fancy buying a second hand one after all someone has been blowing thier bodily fluids down it! Yuk!
