        Hi Saxo, he’s got a Handel on water music and I thought I was surfer-ing!

        That’s the wave to play the sax – LOL

        He’ll have no problem keeping his reed wet!

          If you are going to try out the didgerjerrydoo exercise at home by dipping your sax bell in the toilet bowl, makes sure you flush first.

            Thanx @sxpoet i might try burbling the local billabong instead, you beaut ‘eh cobber. The toilet bowl has funny antipode circulation. No bullfrog blues either. Hey there, to build the lungs, and to have some power, whatta y’know this particular saxophonist (love him or hate him ‘eh @Jeff) has an underwater saxophone, and, well, now, anyway so he reckons at 2:00 on the vid, check it out –

              Saxo, I don’t hate the man! I just don’t like what he did. His stoopid acting out has consequences which affects other street musicians in a negative way. That’s not the way to behave in public.

                No worries mate! I like the Careless Whisper tune in any event. Pretty catchy! “Let he who has won the palm wear it” lol 🙂

                    Thanks @Johnny !! Classic gold.
                    King Curtis or Jole Blon didn’t use much tounge rolling in that one?

                    i remember a few of us were talking about tounge rolling earlier on site …

                    hey found this link

                      flutter tongue is rolling it….like rolling your R’s
                      some people can’t do it….kinda like not being able to pronounce a word in a different language.
                      it’s a cool technique and I use it occassionaly….not nearly as much as the growl tho.
