I played first chair tenor sax in highschool and I can tell you this, I've heard toon play and all I ever heard was a few whole notes, maybe a couple of half notes. He never bent a note and I can tell he plays with a number two beginners reed. Lets just for argument sake leave the saxophone and his intellect separate. In fact, I believe that I could teach an average person who has never held a sax how to play what I've heard him play in a month if they would pratice some every day. Not trying to jump your case or anything, it's just that when that turd got elected and I saw him play the sax, I though it was such a shame that a beautiful instrument like the sax would always be associated with this psyco. And the applause over a few simple notes... Blah :(

I agree that one would not think much of Clinton's saxophone playing from his appearance on Arsenio. But I once heard an interview with a someone who practiced with him in high school. It sounded like he was extremely devoted to practicing his saxophone at that time. Also when Clinton visited the Czech Republic he went out for a night on the town with Vaclav Havel. Apparently, at one jazz club, Clinton got up on stage and played saxophone. It seems like he would not have taken the risk of humiliating himself in front of Havel if he had absolutely no talent.
