Playing a woodwid does not put pressure on your lips the same way that a brass instrament does.

BTY the saxaphone is gay.

In addition, quit marching Band now.

Play a sport instead. There is nothing good about marching band.

Umm braces arent for your lips buddy, they are for your teeth. And a sax mouthpiece does push up on your top teeth.

also, the sax is not gay. It is much deeper and then you think. Just non-sax plyaers dont know many things about it. They think its a Jazz instrument that shouldnt be in a band, and that it is loud and abnoxious. (it CAN be).

They dont know ANYTHING about the classical saxaphone.

Let me think about who I had in band last year...

There were two flutes that were decent, 6 sucked. ALL clarinets sucked balls. The saxes were decent, but I spanked the other two guys. The Tenor sax was really good, he was a new student. I have a good friend that plays trumpet, I'd say the first 3 chairs for the trumpets were good. The rest blew. We had a good drummer or two, 6 total.

And the trombone, truly a gay device. This asshat who played it had to have a keeper with him all the time because his parents were rich ****s who wanted someone watching him all day. And he didn't play, and he was gay. He kept coming behind people in the hall, grabbing some people's (girls and guys) asses. Then out of nowhere he'd pop up behind you and try to give you a neck massage.

He put my friend in a headlock in the lockeroom once. My friend got out, punched him, and got caught as he was about to punch him again. But my gym teacher was cool and shrugged it off. He then gave us a lecture about how you will make enemies if you piss people off. He used the fight as an example and said my friend wouldn't be punished by him because Norman had started the fight. But then my friend got in trouble because Norman's dad works for 501 and he can bully the teachers into doing just about anything.


Don't get me started on the other people I hate.

The braces on your teeth are right behind your lips. The brass player is pushing their lips into the braces.

The saxaphonist is not putting pressing on his lips into his braces.

Do you know the history of the saxaphone? It was designed to imitate the sound of horns. In it's design, it is nothing more than wanabe brass instrament.

You also do realize that 99% of all professional orchestras travel and play with any saxaphones. They usually only have a few on call for the few pieces that require them. The saxaphonists are not full time employees of the orchestras. The Saxaphone is just not a member of the modern orchestra nor has it ever been.


Kenny G plays the saxaphone, therefore the saxaphone is gay.


What is the difference between a saxaphone and a trampoline?

You take off your shoes to jump on a trampoline.

Right, instead of it hurting your lips, at least your upper one, it hurts your teeth like hell if you play too long. The wooden reed messes with your bottom lip.


The Sax is for jazz bands, not orchestra.
