Piano Man?

We traveled to Los Angeles for a friend's baby shower (who, by the time of this post has already delivered her 7lb, 12oz baby girl). We also were able to see Jen's family while we were there (since we were staying with them. We tried to just hide out in their place and not be seen, but Mason's squeals of excitement gave us away. Babies. Sheesh!).

While on our visit, Uncle Chris broke out his keyboard, and after serenading the family with a saucy rendition of "The Final Countdown," he allowed Mason to have a go at the ivories (or in this case, the molded plastics).


My good friend, Ian would be proud of the intensity with which Mason attacked the little Casio. Look out, Chopin!



Towards the end of Mason's performance, he noticed that one key was just not up to par with the rest of them. So he removed it. Who needs C# anyway. The key of D major is highly overrated. Besides, I think we all prefer mixolydian modes! Am I right?



And though Mason was excited about the piano, his final verdict was one that so many of us realize in the end...


Guitar is so much cooler!
