If you wanna know the hard stuff we are playing for jazz band search for Gordon Goodwin's Cut 'n' Run. Or look at this vid on Youtube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcOo4iu8Y0oNote: The sound quality isnt the greates b/c the acoustics where they are playing are horrible. Its an all Asian girl jazz band I know, but Its the closest thing for the song I could find. We play faster than that. The song is crazy fast.

I cant wait ;D Is anyone else in a band ? xXx|DANNY|xXx Only in a school band, I play the alto sax in concert band and then the tenor sax in jazz band. Im not in a rock band or anything, but Im in a very good marching band. Im also in jazz band. I guess Im a band f*g... who knew? I play the trumpet. Me too! Cool. My school jazz band doesn't really play anything like that. But, we did play The Pink Panther.

Michael, you should play somethin and record and post it on the forum! Lol. I'm not that good, lol. Hmm, I don't really think anything in jazz band has been really that difficult. I just listened to the other sax players and quickly got the hang of the music. But, in concert band, there is this one piece, To The Summit: Strive for the Highest. Here's a link, you can listen to a little sample: ClickYou might need to turn it up quite a lot. (don't mind the occasional screeching noise, that's not supposed to be there ) That's the easy part of the song, I'm resting at that part , and luckily I don't have the solo. The song qets quite fast and then need middle, there's a whole page of sixteenth notes with awkward fingerings, I guess that's the trickest/toughest part of a song I've ever played. Oh yeah, I tried the trumpet one day...wow, is it tough. I couldn't get a concert b flat. Well, I don't know, my friend was singing the note and I think she might have been going up the octave. Either way, I won't be touching the trumpet fo rquite some time.

Did you guys ever think about writing music? Any type of music. I tried to teach myself, but there is so much involved in writing it. Like chords, scales, its crazy!

I cant even read music. Everything I know is self taught except scales which I read from tabs.
