Chop Pains

Hi guys, sorry i haven't been posting lately...

My chops have been feeling like crap lately. Last Sunday I had a long day and just completely wore out my chops, plus band and play practice for the pit band isn't helping me heal... plus this new jazz band thing and plus i'm trying to record this cd is just so much... My chops literally hurt from playing so much.. Plus i have this thing on the tip of my toungue that just bugs me... My Caruso studies are doing good... I do have really high range now, I just don't play it because i'm having some teeth problem.. whenever i play high my back tooth starts to hurt me.. i'll have to go to a dentist or something to get that fixed.. the few times that I do attemp to play high i get up to double G or double A.... pertty good huh?!? go get caruso!!!! my tone is great and my improv. is maturing a lot..

I've been doing a lot of reading about Miles Davis and doing a lot of listening and I really like Miles Davis now... and John Coltrane to me is just a saxophone god... wow... well i gotta get to sleep ttyl peace.
