Re: practising in a car

If you've seen Woody Allen's movie "Wild Man Blues" it has a scene of him practicing in a car. An adult student of mine recently purchased a curved soprano sax for this exact purpose--and it's helping.

The Leon Lester anecdote really hits home. When my sleep apnea was untreated, I once found myself boxed in by fire and EMS vehicles in front of my building. A neighbor had seen me sleeping, knocked on the car window, and assumed that I was dead when I failed to respond. Even more scary was that fact that I was in a corner parking space, and the fire truck almost crunched my car trying to make the turn.

It might be smart to sway back and forth while playing <g>.
