Thanks, Carl -

Yeah, the second house was a big selling point for us, as we have a ton of equipment, as not only are we both musicians, but both our dads were professional jazz musicians - my dad on piano, and his dad on trumpet, guitar and voice.

My mom was a professionally trained pianist as well, and trained to be a classical concert pianist, but she developed ganglions on both wrists in her late teens, so there went her dreams of a concert career. She still played beautifully, though, and I remember a lot of times sitting with her on the piano bench and watching her hands as she played.

I did that with my dad as well. I've always watched musicians' hands while they play as a result.

Great memories.
