I have always tried to keep clear of the strings whilst I'm tuning them. They can fucking hurt.
I've always had bad experiences with the sax. I always bite into my lower lip when I'm playing, and for a long time, keeping my thumb stretched over the octave key was incredibly painful. That's not so bad any more, though. It's still a beautiful instrument.
