2. My son wants a baby grand so badly. |
|
I don't have room for one, though. He's taking piano lessons and is learning to play on a grand.
I'm freakin' jealous of you!

9. My son has a Yamaha keyboard. |
|
That's what he practices on. He loves it. But he's begging for a baby grand. I'd have to add a room onto the house if I were to buy one.
I'm happy for you. Nothing is as beautiful as the sound of a piano. I love it.

I'm restricted for the time being to playing guitar or a crappy little casio keyboard (except at gigs, where I occasionally get a real keyboard). I miss my piano!
