In highschool I played alto sax and wasn't terrible. But we played a swing version of "down by the riverside." That was the one song that I got to pick up the Bari and have fun with. The school we went to had only one Bari and I had to share it with another older student. The night of the concert the other guy managed to smack a handrail hard enough to bust off the guard for the low C pad. I found out that losing a guard means that the key is usess unless you attach it to your finger and/or remove the spring. Cue us going up on stage while have the fuckedr rubber banded to my finger. Topped by the fact that the 4 or 5 of the sax section got up front and stood on the other side of our director. I missed so many cues just because I was thinking so hard about how to play the loving thing. Afterward my mom said "you guys looked pretty good" and my response was "I was loving terrible because some rear end in a top hat broke the godamn sax."
