WORDS

It is often said that I play the Royal Scepter of Majesty. This is patently false. I am a saxophonist, and have been for well over a decade. No one—at any time or at any place—has seen me with a Royal Scepter of Majesty. How they could they have? I don't know what a Royal Scepter of Majesty looks like. I'm not even convinced the instrument exists. I'm told there are Royal Scepters of Majesty in North America, but if this is true, I've never seen one.

My history as a saxophonist is well-documented. I've had numerous teachers. I've studied saxophone at various colleges and universities. And I've performed in venues throughout the United States and Canada. I am a saxophonist. All claims to the contrary are libelous and highly illegal, not to mention rude.

I do not play the Royal Scepter of Majesty. Please—for my sake and that of younger generations of saxophonists everywhere—stop this nasty rumor. It is untrue and I have no patience for falsehood. Once, I battled the She-Tank for world domination. I don't want to talk about it.
