My 9 year old played at a small fundraiser Saturday. He plays drums and guitar. As usual I posted some videos to the Instagram we made to share him videos and for whatever reason 1 of them took off and currently has over 350K views (really over 365K but can’t pass up the 350). Just came here to brag for a minute. Take a look at his page and give a follow! Instagram @sticks_and_strings_kid I will also put the YouTube links if don’t have IG.

re: Most user friendly online guitar learning platform for 9 year old beginner?

Curious as to where you are located? My 9 year old has been playing about a year and a half and also drums for about 4 years and getting a good base at that age with in person lessons has been huge. He is now to the point where he knows enough to that he can go on Ultimate Guitar and teach himself songs.

My 9 year old put a note, Christmas card and stickers in the mail a few minutes ago so Louisiana is on the board.

Maybe so. We went there first and were close to the front by the time ride opened, just our experience. My 9 year old couldn’t do single rider so that slowed us down a lot. I know the wait was 3.5 + hours later but not sure about that late in day.
If going soon I would say you can get the app and check wait times at various times during day before you go.

If you stay on property use the extra hour and get in line at Ministry of Magic. Single rider lines are the way to go if kids are old enough. It was kind of pointless to do mobile ordering then get to restaurant and have to wait in long line for table then can’t submit your order until have a table number. Yoshi ride and dragon racer’s alley not worth the wait.

Everything we had in park taste like 1993 hospital cafeteria food

We are at Epic now. We weren’t paying $1200 for 4 express passes but it is honestly not worth the trip without it at this time of year. Yes we knew the lines would suck but it’s been 120 -150 minutes on ALL of the premier rides. Park is awesome though, but the park food sucks.
re: Anyone going to the Louisiana HS State Swim Meet this week? Sulphur Parks & Rec Questions…
Posted by killinme_smalls on 11/19/25 at 7:05 am to meeple
The facility sucks and is stuffy as hell. It definitely feels like you are doing something wrong when you walk in the way the security is, but we have always brought in fruit and other snack foods for the swimmers with no issue.
The Natatorium is a dump but would be a better location. As far as LSU not being willing to give pool time I’m not so sure about that, it seems like lack of effort on LHSAA since LSU is at a meet in Athens all this week.

The L-00 is 24.75” which is considered full scale, correct?

Posted by killinme_smalls on 10/22/25 at 12:08 pm
Looking for a full scale smaller body acoustic electric with solid wood top. Prefer to stay $1500 or less but could go higher if the right piece. Thanks in advance.

War Eagle Pete, absolutely will reach out next time we are up that way! He ended up on stage in Nashville a few times just by the band seeing him going along in the crowd. I need to upload those to YouTube as well. Then we were in Blue Ridge GA this summer and he did an open mic night then got invited to join the host the following night at a little restaurant he was playing at. It has definitely become an adventure

Oh he is into electric already. Drums as well and is better at drums.
Thanks everyone for all of the encouraging comments. He truly loves playing music and being on stage. He will be playing next weekend at Federales Fest and we are looking forward to that opportunity!

UPDATE 2/1/26
Yesterday my 9 year old played at a small fundraiser to raise funds for a special wheelchair. With the help of a few other musicians they more than accomplished the goal all while freezing their fingers off. As usual I posted a few videos to Instagram and this one in particular took off and has over 130,000 views. He fought the frozen fingers and guitar tuning and we never expected something like this but give it a look!

My son had the chance to play a few songs at Live After 5 this past Friday. He is 9 and has been playing guitar since last summer as well as drums for about 4 years. It was an awesome experience for him and I just wanted to share and brag. I know CSB

My 9 year old son likes to wear his cowboy hat with only boots and boxer briefs. He plays both drums and guitar well and his favorites are KISS, Elvis, Johnny Cash, AC/DC and the Highwaymen. He has a record player and sports a faux-hawk mullet like Duke Reilly when he was at LSU.

Thanks everyone. Glad to hear it is a good event. My 9 year old son is going to play a few songs at the fest and we didn’t know what to expect. Hoping it is a great event and opportunity for him!
