Object D’Art — 50 ft Saxophone

SaxOfVolkswagnes Jay Easton send a pointer to this monstrosity located in, where else, Texas. His message is simple and one I can relate to, "I want one…" :o)

SaxOfVolkswagons The Roadside America site sez the sculpture is made from cars. How cool is it that Houston has two of these Objects D’Art for their citizens to enjoy.

I’ve got some friends coming over tonight to jam from the Real books. Suzy just finished the two benches in the music studio for the audience. We also have a drink cooler in the wet bar now. Next we need to hang some cabinets and tile the wet bar which currently has a rubber top. Maybe tonight I pull out the Eppelsheim bass sax and scare the neighbors.

Tomorrow is all about doing quartets with Ray and JB joining us to sight read some new charts that Jeff Miller arranged for us. Just having returned from the Seattle Symphony Rodgers, Hammerstein, and Berlin concert, this is turning out to be a great weekend for music.

    I haven’t been to symphony in a long time. In Baton Rouge, we went regularly, but, since the move to the mountains, we have not been. Sometimes in the symphony, I’d get distracted -there is certain music that makes me feel to irritated….but, there is others that I quite enjoyed.

    Kathryn, the concert wasn’t one of the best. We usually like two of every three we go to. Sometimes we think about moving away from the city. But that’s where are bands, friends, and activities are. Still, visiting the mountains is very enjoyable.
