The following comes from a mission statement that appeared in the inaugural issue of SPIN. It means as much to this current staff as it did to the original writers and editors.
A confession: SPIN is imperfect. It’s rough-edged, restless, insatiably curious. A little aggressive, a little cocky. Youthfully uncompromising, but maturely flexible. Romantic - definitely! Irreverent - sure! Unpredictable - yes. Very alive.

My father really liked having his coffee and listening to me play bass over the radio in the mornings. I wasn't very good but he didn't care. I grew up and we grew apart then he passed away. I started playing again with those memories as inspiration. But no matter how good I play, or what I'm playing, I play alone now. That's a super important moment kid.

[@Hammondish]

Condolences for your loss. Sounds like you meant a lot to each other. Glad you have this fond memory of him.

[@pikin2]

What a cool morming routine

[@theRevVA32]

Can relate. My dad had just gotten older n lost interest in music mostly, and jaded by 22 years of playing. I'm 32 now so there isn't anything I'm able to impress him with. If it is i haven't found it yet. Been looking for some of the more challenging things from 60s and 70s rock. This solo actually might be a good idea n shouldn't take too long to get down.

[@Mi_ro_dri]

This exactly.

I've had this same moment with my parents and they wept like somebody died. (I cried as well while playing) Seeing them so proud of me was probably the highest point in my entire life.

If only the horrible spam clickbait channel that we're watching actually credited the guy that made the video. Unfortunately all the kind words in the comments (for both the son and the father) will never go to them.... because this clickbait spam channel just stole the guys video. Not only that, we can't even go to the original to pass on our comments.... because they didn't credit, link, or even acknowledge it. 😥😥

Proud dad right there. My parents are in their mid 60s and they come to pretty much every gig I play, once, twice a week and they have such a rich social life from it.

[@bartoszkolacz]

My dad turned 50 in January 2009. I played my first gig 3,5 years later. Then my band broke up, and I’ve been playing again only since 2021, which, still for now, means a rehearsal after a rehearsal, and I have no idea when we would be ready to play on stage so my beloved dad could see me playing for him again. He’s 64, and all fine. But he hasn’t been disappointed and crushed because of me for only about 4 years now.

[@TheGamefreakr]
