Found these videos on the tf2 wiki. Hold hat for me, but thought it would be a good resource for those new to the game. Basically these videos just go over how to play each class functionally and what they were intended for.

I made this post on my other clan/group site (Sanctu Maleficus -> [SM]) earlier, but I'll link it for this thread too -- might be somewhat redundant to a degree.

These video guides are designed for new players to Team Fortress 2 to pickup the basics of each class. Even as an experienced FPS gamer and one who has played TF2 (and it's predecessors) since release, these videos are incredibly useful and give a very detailed explanation of weapons, class tactics, class matchups, and some good tips / suggestions for beginners to learn and expand upon during their time playing Team Fortress 2. I give these my wholehearted seal of approval.
Note: I did not create the aforementioned videos, and thus I cannot take credit for making the videos or being apart of their development. Gotta give credit where credit is due. http://www.sanctu.com/forums/tren_z/icons/icon14.gif

To play demoman: Shoot stickies all over floors at choke points constantly don't actually bother trying to hide them. Never stop shooting grenades even if the badguys have left and stopped going that way for a while. Then you can claim you're good.

Didn't seem to shabby too me. I tend to use the sticky nade launcher 90% of the time (offensively & defensively), but he covers the basics. Though I never spam CPs anymore, and he left out the artform of dealing with ubers: predict where they will be in 10 seconds, get out of their sight, and set a sticky trap for the second the uber wears off (or block their escape route, or try to blow the medic away with a crit).
