I thought if I let on how much I love the music, nature would cause him to hate it out of generational rebellion. He's turning 15 in a few days and has found his own way as a rocker (phew) Loves Ozzy and Sabbath, Slash and G 'n R, Avenged Sevenfold, Santana, Clapton, etc. and since age 12 has owned a Les Paul and plays quite well. The good thing about the pop culture dark age in which we live is that, while most of the material on the charts (and piped into the malls) is vapid, kids can freely explore their own tastes online. My son and his friends have found some brilliant, organic, young rock artists thru youtube. <br />Spikiespikerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10710437100092211275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3574227753294266442.post-14373422225354127322011-04-07T18:47:18.863-07:002011-04-07T18:47:18.863-07:00cool
