"You don't like christian rock, I don't like your pasta."
I have a similar issue;
. Take for instance "stairway to heaven" by Led Zeppelin - My dad yells at me every time i play the intro to that, or any part of the song for that matter. They dont understand that we like the music ONLY for the music, not for its satanic origins.
This is STUPID!
I've been a performing musician now for two years, two as a bassist and for the last 2months, a drummer.
My problem- my family are non-musicians and seem militant in their disgust for my music.
What makes it worse is that I'm a Christian Rock drummer, and my family (for the majority) are strict atheists.
So this is causing a lot of tension and stress, mostly for me. Up until now, only my (Christian) grandparents have been to hear me play anything, at a small university event. I can't talk about playing music with them, and I can't even really play drums in the house.
Anyone got any idea what I could do to help sort this out? I've tried explaining to them how much it means but nothing has got through.
