HW: Careful use of the saxophone

[Denis Regenbrecht]

Hi,

>I think he's great. Just to be contrary, I think he plays far more

Totally ACK!

>Don't know if he plays flute but he certainly plays clarinet on Hassan.

He definitely does. He played a nice (improvised?) part during Free Fall at
the Astoria gig.

>As for his 'look'- does it matter??

Nope.
HW isn't a shitty boyband. Look is totally irrelevant, only the music is of
importance!

>Personally I hope he'll be in the live HW line-up for some time to come.

I hope that, too.
I also hope that the current line-up (are Simon & Alan back for good, or
"just" permanent guests?), which is fabulous and the best in years, will
start recording a studio album. If they put as much energy and effort into
it as they put into the last gigs, it will be real masterpiece.
