My father forbid piano music from being played in the home, let alone the possession of a piano. When I was 17 I traded my oboe straight across for an RS505 and never looked back.

As soon as I left the house, of course, my mother brought home some raggedy-ass YMCA upright. Nobody knew how to play it. When she left my dad 10 years later she and her new husband bought a Kimball, just to entice people over to their house to play quartets.

Me? I've got an A-80 and a K2500XS so y'all can bite me. ;-)

He hates piano. At least, this is what my mother said. I've never asked him about it. I grew up avoiding, rather than questioning, my parents.

I've tried questioning my parents for the longest time. Hopeless. Now I just learn from their mistakes as much as my own and hopefully turn out okay :D
