[Kevin B]

Emily, I grew up listening to 'classic rock,' particularly of the 'Southern rock' genre (Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Marshall Tucker Band, et al). My 16 year-old son also enjoys that music, along with Led Zeppelin, Yes, Jimi Hendrix, and other bands of that era. In fact, he and I are traveling this weekend to see the Allman Brothers and Lynyrd Skynyrd in concert. I see among our friends strained relationships between parents and their teenagers. But for my son and I, music, especially 'classic rock,' provides us an opportunity to open up lines of communication that might otherwise be closed off. He is also a musician (guitar) and with my keyboarding we sometimes have the opportunity to play together (contemporary Christian music in the praise band at our church). Similarly, there is some new music that he shares with me, and, quite frankly, much of that does not appeal to me. But because we share an enjoyment for 'classic rock,' we can share our opinions of other music as well.
