During my three-day "Megaplex" experience, I'd encountered 'fursuiters' with a variety of talents...
On Day One, this raccoon demonstrated his musical abilities by playing the saxophone (performing Christmas tunes, naturally, in conjunction with the con's holiday theme). The person inside the costume was not only able to read the music through the raccoon's eyes, but have the mouthpiece of the saxophone reach his own mouth from within the raccoon's muzzle! And although said performance wasn't flawless, it was still quite an attention-getter!

If you truly like to see fursuiters in the UK, PW, go to YouTube and check out excerpts from "Trigger Happy TV" with Dom Joly. I remember seeing this British practical joke series (a few years ago), when it was imported to America's Comedy Central (Cable TV channel). Many of this show's segments involved human beings in animal suits doing the most unexpected things imaginable...
To this day, the one image I will never get out of my head was an opening sequence from one episode, in which a man walks down a long alleyway to deliver a package... and when he gets to the end of the alley, he turns and runs back the way he came - followed by a menagerie of dozens of 'fursuiters'! You have to see it to believe it!

Yay musical coon!! Hehe, I know only one man who plays saxophone, and I hate it T_T but I'd pay to see a raccoon play Christmie tunes on the saxophone. Play "Silent Night" and I'll give yah all the trash you can carry!!! Hehe. What an extraordinary talent, to be able to play while in the suit itself. Must be roomy in there or he/she would never be able to reach the mouthpiece.
