Yellow… Gold, what’s the difference?!
We don’t have a whole lot of yellow at out place… so I thought I’d show you some GOLD!
The neighbours have had to listen this baby blasting through the trees for the last week or so!
I learnt the saxaphone from year 3 to year 7, but if I think about it, that was just over a decade ago! Luke has always pretty keen for me to play msuic with him, even though I don’t know an instrument, so I finally sucummed tore-learning the saxaphone. My brother Amon has been playing it, which is good, because it’s all in working order etc.
Luke and I jammed a little bit over the weekend, and basically, I suck! I can never remember what notes come next in the little jammy things we do. I seriously just need to read the music (and remember where all the fingering is)!
One thing that’s really interesting though is how quickly it all comes back to you. I did a bit of a refresher on the weekend and I remembered pretty easily the fingering for the different notes. Don’t tell Luke, but I am reasonably excited about playing this instrument again. For me (it’s always been like this) practicing is my weakness, but maybe with Luke it will be different?
Do you have anything yellow at your place so that you can play along?
Do you play an instrument? Tell me your story!

That’s yellow enough for me. Good luck with the jamming I’ve always wanted to be in with the musos but sadly I have no talent

Jealousy! Wish I could play the sax. Well I wish I could play anything. My partner is a muso and for Christmas 2008 he got me a keyboard (I played the organ as a child). Do you think I have spent more than maybe an hour on it? Nope. Good luck I hope you are more dedicated than me!!

@Sarah
That’s how I feel about many a thing!! At least we all have our talents and things that we’re good at. 
@Kristie You just need a REASON to play! That’s what I’m finding!! Mind you, since that post I have not picked up the sax AT ALL!!
Bad T’lia!!
