[@Saxologic]

The ending almost killed me LMAO I was driving my car when I saw this and almost crashed

[@DavePollack]

Eyes on the road!!

[@grayfox3057]

Man, how much effort are you putting into this December thing? It’s incredible!

[@DavePollack]

A LOT, hahah. Thanks so much!

[@grayfox3057]

Dave Pollack by the way, the dude with the awesome sweater is covering The Chosen One’s motto in this video, I hope that was an unwanted mistake

[@DavePollack]

He’s not invited on my channel ever again

[@sorenfuhrer401]

Still pure GOLD!

[@internetperson3919]

Man the pianist really had to vibe him like that

[@DavePollack]

Listen these saxophonists need to be put in their place

[@thejazzcartel2542]

Dave Pollack yes I agree, saxophonists always snooping on others

[@nams2571]

You are such an amazing player

[@DavePollack]

Thank you!

[@alexmarquez9333]

1:42 is a quote from the Pennies from Heaven melody

[@DavePollack]

Yup!

[@thejazzcartel2542]

That pianist has really good tone haha

[@blackitachi6935]

Dave is trying to trick us. I happen to know that this was recorded at once and that Dave secretly has a twin. How do you think he can play all those instruments? Talent? Ha! No there's 2 of them! Maybe more!

[@DavePollack]

Shhhhhh don't ruin the secret!!

[@1dotele]

that tone amazing

[@lucasavarino7520]

I might have to change my vote for the best CTOTD, this is really funny and sounds super awesome. Great job on this series!

[@DavePollack]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate that.

[@janymikeptz1156]

Nice video, clearly sweater envy...poor guy, lol.

[@DavePollack]

Hahaha, yup!

[@ilikecranes1576]

I love you senpai ❤️

[@saxguytony]

Big LOLs at the end! Yeah, I could hear what you were trying to do there...

[@paultasker6114]

Lovely tone! Scary sweater though. Happy Christmas Dave!

[@DavePollack]

Same to you!

[@natemoore9826]

If you come to Portland I have a bunch of high school friends that would love to watch!

[@DavePollack]

Awesome!! Well hopefully I'll get out there sooner rather than later to play

[@twofiveone7456]

Dave Pollack heh what about Portland but it’s Maine.

[@andrew4282]

Cameron Anderson more like Nashville TN music city

[@sixzerothreee]

On Christmas, you should play a Christmas tune with a bari sax

[@abnelhidalgo1784]

Piano Dave was literally me during jazz combo class last semester when the piano player didn’t know shit about jazz but still managed to get into the class, hahaha ironic

[@DavePollack]

Hahahahaaaaa

[@greenflare3125]

I love this so much!!!

[@alanhirayama4592]

Dave playing with himself, LOL! Seriously, very tasty playing, Merry Christmas!

[@karencummins8820]

Hey Mr. Pollack, I hate to break it to you...but you are a TENOR player! Certainly no disrespect to your alto playing, which is lovely, your sound on tenor is SO special...warms my heart!

[@DavePollack]

Wow- thanks so much! I still don’t consider myself a tenor player at all, but I found a setup that is working dor me!

[@noahtruth6554]

Man you make that Conn sing. Someday...

[@DavePollack]

Thank you!

[@patrickdacquel656]

Dave Pollack what conn is that? Underslung neck? Later model 10M?

[@melvinbridgewater6402]

Hi Dave, love your voice. The Conn really sings. Are you using a Custom Neck. What Model Neck is it? Thanks!

[@stilo2703]

Almost "This I Dig of You"

[@sequoyahcisneros8719]

Yeah same cool intro

[@delta-w8h]

Wow this is really cool.

[@DavePollack]

Glad you dig it!

[@Edspillanemusic]

Reminds me of Mintzer

[@DavePollack]

That’s a big compliment!

[@nams2571]

I sure love your playing, young man:) Keep it up.

[@DavePollack]

Thanks, and will do!

[@giovanniroviglione9307]

Great solo❤❤ very nice sound!I transcribed it!I have a question, at 3.56’ on the chords in Cmaj, you are playing out, what are you thinking of?I cannot understand which scale, phrasing does that noted come from!thanks!

[@delta-w8h]

Mr. Pollack you should join a full band!

[@DavePollack]

What?

[@chrispotter3190]

Alex Yedidia pretty sure he’s in several bands

[@ilikecranes1576]

Dang I really wanted to scroll through the early comments while listening but there ain’t none

[@bassAsax]

Industrial Light & Magic aside, this is still my fave so far. Loved your playing!!! A 10M is next on my radar, what mpc are you using?

[@DavePollack]

10mfan Classic in Ultem material, size 7**

[@jeffpf38]

Great sound! What is the setup you used on this?

[@DavePollack]

Horn is a Conn 10m, mouthpiece is a 10mfan Classic (generation 2) in Ultem material, size 7**, D'Addario Select Jazz 3M filed reeds, standard Rovner ligature

[@andrew4282]

Lmao great skit!! Sounded amazing! Plus I have a question. I’m an alto player and I double on bassoon and I’m thinking about getting a tenor. I have enough to get a used student model at a shop near me or should wait it out and save up for a pro level horn like a Yamaha 62

[@DavePollack]

Hmm...really depends on what you want to do with it. A student model tenor setup correctly with a solid mouthpiece/reed/lig will aound just fine. If you’re looking for somwthing long-term that you might gig/record on, maybe wait for the 62. You can do a lot with a student model horn though!!

[@kardiac8572]

Oh yeah I was right on guessing the special guest

[@DavePollack]

Nailed it!

[@patrickdacquel656]

What kind of conn is that? Later model 10M?

[@DavePollack]

I know it’s a 10M but have no idea on the year

[@patrickdacquel656]

Dave Pollack rolled tone holes?

[@DavePollack]

...I don’t even know what that is!

[@patrickdacquel656]

Dave Pollack hahaha

[@DavePollack]

@@patrickdacquel656 I'm not making a joke - I don't actually know what rolled tone holes are. I don't know a lot about gear - I just play what I have and that's it, hah. Let me know what to look for and I'll let you know if it is or not

[@gecl698]

Whats your sax neck

[@DavePollack]

The horn is a Conn 10m...I think it's the stock neck from that

[@stilo2703]

Stock 10m neck

[@RobertMonroePlays]

That saxophonist is good but no where near as good looking as the piano player

[@DavePollack]

I agree

[@martinrivas3119]

always be rude to your sax player ALWAYS!!
