Sax Player
"Saxophonists" have music degrees and listen to jazz, and I could care less about either.
That makes me a joe schmoe punk "Sax Player" who plays easy church songs (lol) and dreams up backup lines to rock songs.
What is a saxophone, you ask?
My Style
Generally, I listen to everything, but limit most of my playing to rock, alternative, blues,
and funk harmony/accompaniment. Think David Sanborn meets Leroi Moore.
My Gear
Professional musicians take it for granted that they'll have professional-quality gear to perform with.
That being said, I list my items here only for curiosity and to help me keep track.
