Working the Big Horn into the act

I was kidding around with Javier the other day and it dawned on me that we might be able to use the bass saxophone as a regular part of the act. We already have a bari sax in the band. I used to play it when I was feeling less feisty, but now Chris Kapral does the duties, and very well. The bass sax is huge, low and unweildy. When it came down to loading the van we had more people than I had planned so the bass had to go.

What I'm thinking of doing is playing the Isley Bros' It's Yo' Thing, before the vocal comes in, and have a little fun doing an open vamp on the famous bass line.

Well, maybe next time.
