Give up the sax ?? Nooooo !! Strange my pop was an Artist. Went to the Royal academy of art London 50\6. I guess that’s how I got the gene; his love of jazz was immense. Good luck with the painting, but don’t give up on your horn. Sounds like you have a real bad sling if it has happened more than once. Be a shame to see you go sxpoet, but if you only have so much time ? Waiting to hear on a trade right now….fingers crossed !!
Have a great day…jak
