   deadmandeadman says I could have written this post. Except my dad had NO USE for rock n roll in any way. But he loved music, and he liked it loud. And just like you, my friend, I have discovered that "his" music can be as satisfying as mine, sometimes more so. So I salute you, satisfied mind, in your new found wisdom.

   AnonymousAmy says My dad doesn't speak to me......but growing up, there was always music playing. Fleetwood Mac, Supertramp, the Stones, John Lennon.......and I am so grateful that he loved music so much and he shared that passion with me. great post blair.

   SteveAllen says This is sweet, Blair...your comments and the song. You've talked about your family, but I didn't know your dad was gone. So since I'm his generation, and started out on Elvis myself, and since it's Fathers' Day, I just want to give you the support that I think he might give you. This is it: You're young; you're single; you were unhappy with your work and with where you're living...so GO FOR IT! Move to California; see what kind of work you can find in music; meet people; explore; see what happens! Like someone said a while back, your family is concerned and afraid because they love you, and they're afraid you're making a mistake. But also remember: a mistake isn't the end of the world anyway, especially at your age. You're supposed to be making mistakes. It's how you learn and find things out. So come on out to California (and if you don't like SoCal, try the Bay Area)! At the least, it will be a great adventure.

   leftoverking says my third father's day, and i am fully taking advantge of the right to do fuck all (absolutely nothing) with my day. my dad was all about johnny cash, marty robbins, and eddie albert. for not being able to hardly carry a tune, my old man raised five musical kids. we all play at least one instrument.

   Lizziegreeneyes says Hey b: I am sending you an electronic hug !!! This is a beautiful post. D'ya get it yet. The older I get, the more of my Da I see in me & my habits... seem much more like my Mum, but he & I share so much sometimes it's scary. Love of music (though not always in agreement on the band/artist) that's probably one of the best gifts I've ever received - guess he knows me pretty well :) NOTHER HUG comin, don't duck :)
