Hey Rob & Mike,
  At Summit 2000, among many other things Levy highly recommended picking
the brains of sax players.  Then I find out both Mike Peloquin and Damien
Masterson double on sax.   When I got home I bought me a Keilwerth Alto and
got a years worth of weekly lessons - four years on I can say it was
definitely worth it.  
Thanks guys,
