Beyond the lights of most “Rock Stars” is a parent sitting way in the upper seats. The parent who paid for their years of training whether professional or in the garage with $$’s and/or late night jams….very late. A parent who kept the money flowing as their son or daughter was still a rock waiting to climb the steps to a star. The parent who got the stares from other parents who’s child was in a more respectful position lawyer, doctor, engineer. This parent will never get the accolades of the fans or play on the big stage. So the next time you see that star not only thank them for their awesome performance but for the parents who got them on the stage in the 1st place.
