I dreamed of one day being allowed to play the triangle at school. I was only given the Claves (which, to be honest, isn't an instrument at all, it's just two sticks).

If we'd had sticks in music class when I was at school, I'd have been banned from them as well...

So er, they didn't give you the drum kit to go with it?

Once they did. And once was enough times for them to realize that was a bad idea.

Hey, cheers Fredrik - I didn't know they were called claves, but I am after a pair. This knowledge will stop me having to go into Dawson's & ask for a pair of sticks to bang together!

Knowledge is power!
In this case, the power of not having to ask for sticks to bang together, and isn't that the sort of power we all seek?

That sax line was the first "other instrument" solo I learned to play on the guitar. It had a huge impact on my playing style. I will hoist a drink in his honour.

He would have definitely have joined you in a drink Pete - as would Gerry.

My brother learnt to play the sax a bit. Like many (wind) instruments its easy to pick up the basics, but making it sound great like Raphael Ravenscroft could is the clever bit.

Racing to be childish - sounds like geezers to me ... and, damn, you beat me to it (but Griff has a 5 hour advantage on me).

My grand father played the sax and clarinet and I can remember as a young boy listening to him practice for a gig. He played in a lot of big bands of the era, 30s-50s.

If it's a work laptop you should get the one with the best support and guaranties.
And definitely a docking station, real keyboards and proper monitors are necessary for working.

Except that a desktop isn't (as) portable.
But otherwise right.
