“As a kid, I was always listening to music. I would just go in to my room and put on an album, read the lyrics, and just spend hours and hours in there. Plus, my sister Laurie played piano (in fact she taught me my first few notes) so music was always around one way or another.” WayFirstsFactsKidsHoursRoomsTaughtListeningNotesAlbumsOne WayPianoPlusMy SisterListening To Music Author:Andrew Hollander
“I would go into my three different sisters' rooms in the early-mid '70s and they had very specific different tastes in music. I specifically remember lying on my different sisters' bedroom floors and listening to their record collections. And "Starship Trooper" was one of my sister Nancy's favorite songs and favorite album. Music is so defining for me. In the late '70s and early '80s, I worked in radio. When I was in high school, I worked at two different radio stations.” DifferentSchoolRememberLyingSongListeningMusic IsHigh SchoolMy SisterBedroomFavorite Song Author:Thomas Haden Church
