5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

I have been on and off for the past 7 years due to moving overseas, but up until then, I'd been playing instruments since I was 8 (so over 20 years). Starred on clarinet, then flute, alto/tenor/baritone sax, some piano. Started to learn trombone, but I graduated so no longer had access.
I've always loved playing jazz and just general big band music. Pink Panther has always been a fun one to play. One of my friends here is in a band (vocals, drums, guitar, bass) and keeps hassling me to get a saxophone so I can guest gig and play "Careless Whisper." lol.
Since moving, I've missed my saxophone dearly, but it's expensive to ship and expensive to buy. I currently have a kalimba and low Irish whistle. They've been in the box for a few months due to moving houses. Seeing all of these posts make me want to break them out again.
