In a lot of ways, I think I am all the above. when I was younger, I would look at album, cassette, or CD cases from front to back to find out who played what instruments and wrote the songs. if I am listening to music, one of my pet peeves is for somebody to talk to me where I can’t hear. In most cases, I prefer live music or live recordings to studio albums. And totally despise most of the newer music because that id overproduced taking away from true musicianship

Bob seger. he still is one of my favorites.

I have three boys ages 13, 15, and 18 who play music and in fact, have a band and play gigs weekly. I on the other hand, could not carry a tune in a bucket. I told my wife when the oldest was six years old that my biggest regret was not learning an instrument and I wanted to at least give our sons a chance. She started him with piano and guitar and he took it from there, he later inspired the others. We always have music playing around our house and I have explained to them the difference in not just listening, but actually hearing music. We have always encouraged them, but never have been too pushy or try to enforce our will.

This exactly!!! My situation is almost the same but with 4 boys. 5 to 18 yrs old. All are very active, including sports, but it is only for fun. No travel ball. 13,15,and 18 yr old Earn anywhere from $300-$700 a week playing music and working part time.. I make decent money but probably not what a lot make but our family focus is on spending time together whether that’s at work, hunting, etc….. not saying at times that the financial situation does not get tight, but it can definitely be done. My wife has 2 degrees but chooses to stay home ,cut hair on the side and teach our children.

It is really amazing how talented a lot of the “southern rock” musicians were! You can go to YouTube and watch their live performances and it is amazing. Allman Brothers, Marshall Tucker Band, Molly hatchet, Elvin Bishop…. Etc..

1970s rock ‘n’ roll specifically southern rock
