I am the bah-bah-black sheep of the family... I think gifts like this are now expected.

I am looking at various places in their area for lessons. I think I'm going with a simple setup and some lessons. I think if he just gets something to play he won't pursue it farther.

True, its only so fun for so long to just tool around on it. Its more fun if you actually learn and can create.

I'd hate you too if you gave my kid drums. You'd have to adopt the fucking child until he can at least lay down an even backbeat, or I'd hunt you down too.
