Andy Lee

For example, my little guy.

I still remember bringing Sonny to the radio show one day years ago and we had my electronic drum kit set up outside.

He couldn't even get on the drum stool.

And now, just this week, I sat in the audience at his school and I watched him play solo in front of assembly and crush war pigs by Black Sabbath on drums.

My little guy.

It was sick.

Couldn't believe how good he was, just how grown up it all seemed and...

Afterwards, with teary eyes, I mentioned this grappling I was having with how incredible he was.

I mentioned it to his drum teacher, Nick, who agreed that he's come so far.

And then Nick actually said something that really, really stuck with me.

Nick said...

He needs a good electronic drum kit to practice with at home and I want my drum kit back, Jack.

I want it back.

It's time.

I let you lease it from me six years ago and now you've got to pay the piper.

You are leasing it at $1 a week.

I'll waive it for a year.

After that, we go to a weekly.

You're no money changes hands ever.

I'll bring it back when you need it.
