Given my sons current endeavors as a drummer I’m ready to start the OFH campaign. So whats for dinner when I occupy FLU’s house?[/quote]
I know this is partly a joke….but I have to share my experience with having a teenage musician. My son decided he wanted to play guitar when he was about 12. By a year later he had a band. We had the most ridiculous addition that had been made to our house, a room above the back yard, about 12 feet by almost the entire length of the house, probably close to 40 feet. Entrance was through a sliding glass door from the master bedroom. Upstairs. That became the music room. And for 5 years, at least 2 or 3 times a week, there were 2-6 kids in there making noise. Always had a drum kit set up. The old hammond organ. Two or three guitars, amps, wires. And kids.
It was annoying sometimes. The music sucked. Punk. Had to clear them out sometimes at night. Hard to take a nap on the weekends. They ate and ate and ate. But my son was always home. I always knew where he was.
I don’t know how old your son is. But there is an upside to being the cool parent who lets the band practice at their house. Well worth the annoyances.
