Your dad played obscure musical instruments before you did and there’s a sultry flute ballad about your mom to prove it. Everyone plays guitar, it’s the English of instruments that frat dogs pick up to woo women with unoriginality. Your dad was a true musician, a virtuoso of cylindrical steel and The Pied Piper of panty dropping. His fingers could craft high notes that rang tree tops with euphoria, and sometimes he didn’t even need his flute to do it.

So hipsters, next time you’re red eyed at an Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros concert and feeling mystically inspired to start playing the accordion or viola, remember this…

Your dad could give you obscure music lessons if he wasn’t busy working to pay for your liberal arts degree.

Big thank you to Erin for today’s photo.
