A lot of these definitions talk about how Palo Alto is rich, and how it's filled with ex-hippies turned Republican, and all that is true. What none of them mention, and what might be the very worst thing about the town, is its banality. Everything - from the style of the buildings, to the cars people drive, to the the clothes they wear, to the food they eat, and even the ideals they hold - is overpriced and bland, more show than substance. There's no art scene, nor even any venues for live music. Both Palo Alto and its sister institution, Stanford, have long made their bread by whoring themselves out to the federal government, doing R&D for defense and intelligence agencies. That's why all the hippies worth their salt left even before they got priced out of the place, and that is what people mean when they say, "Shallow Alto."
At least the CIA turned Ken Kesey onto acid while he was at Stanford, but I don't think Palo Alto can take the credit for that.

A town where rich "moreopenmindedthanthou" hippies/yuppies inhabit starbucks and raise drug-addicted materialistic wiccan teenager girls who assault their mothers and don't go to jail because they're rich.
This town sucks.

A good instrument to play, not to big, not to small either. The neck strap can become somewhat annoying at points. Overall it's a good saxophone to play and it makes a great tone. When played with others it can have a great melody and harmony, overall it is a good instrument for a band and people think their instruments are better than you but it's all lies. The Alto Saxophone will always be the best instrument!! :)

A town located in northern California about 2 hours away from San Francisco. It is stereotyped as a rich white neighborhood- because Jame Franco and other famous people were born there. Its two high schools are Paly (northern) and Gunn(southern). Do not be fooled by what people say, there are many ratty parts and homeless people wandering University ave. Watch out!

The worst saxophone in the saxophone family.
Over-played and over-popular. More people need to play Tenor Sax, or hey, even bari!
