I played tenor. The one I had in HS was donated by an alumni's family and was super nice. It was a pretty obscure French brand so it took a lot of effort to figure out just what it was. Anyway a few years back I see someone in the US selling the exact model on ebay! I knew it so well, as soon as I saw it I knew it was the one. Now it lives in my storage locker. One day I'll live somewhere that I can practice it without annoying my neighbors, ie not a flat or apartment.

My sax in HS was called gator, but I didn't name it that, that was what everyone called it. It had a faux(?) alligator skin case. My gator is in a modern travel case, but it's still gator.

One of my fave songs on sax was I Remember Clifford, which is a trumpet song mainly, but the backing horns are lovely and in our band I had a solo following the trumpet solo. Also it's easy to play the lead on tenor too, because they're both b-flat instruments. Also it's just a beautiful song.

And very much different to that, we did an instrumental arrangement of Vehicle by the Ides of March which was absolutely awesome. Had an alto and tenor solo in it.
