My parents owned a music store, so I was tinkering with instruments since I was big enough to reach them. Sometimes to the dismay of my parents, when I'd get into stuff at the store.
"Put that guitar back where you got it! No wait, hand it to me .. gently" <grin>

I had to take piano first of course (at around 5 yrs old or so), along with theory soon after, then when I got old enough to go to school I started on trumpet.
The rest just got picked up along my journey .. anyway, you asked how we all got started; wasn't much of a choice for me.


I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome
