Leading off the newscast was a still pic and there's Dad, second from the left, sweaty armpits, sandwiched between tortured amps and screaming girls. I look it up every fathers Day, smile and say hello.
My Dad would have been in full agreement with yours, he was not a fan of the Beatles or rock at all. I on the other hand am a huge fan of most all classic rock and am fortunate enough to have passed it on to my only child, my son. I can't imagine not having had music in common, very lucky indeed. Good, bad or otherwise your story gives me a smile too, tx.
