Who says parents don’t like electric guitar practice?
Brad and I were talking about how funny it is that we don’t mind listening to Dallen and Jed’s electric guitar lessons or their practicing. Right now I’m listening to Dallen and Brick Williams (his teacher) playing Pink Floyd’s “Time” from the Dark Side of the Moon album. One of my all-time favorite songs. I love “Tears in Heaven” by Eric Clapton, and I am just becoming a fan of Muse. Okay, so AC/DC is not a band I would personally listen to, but I can handle their music. I’m familiar with it.
I think that our generation of parents are more tolerant of guitar and drum and other “rock” instrument playing by our children because we know a lot of the music and already like it. We grew up with it. In a similar situation, my Dad would have come into the room with hands over ears, body rocking back and forth and moaning sounds coming from his mouth. Times have certainly changed.
