Actually if it wasn't for the accordion, his parents would have given him guitar lessons and we would still have Al but he probably would be a little less weird.

Not true. Accordions are a lot older than 100 -- Wikipedia says 1822.

It's not the accordion, it's just that family has been in the business for 100 years.
Talking about music is like fishing about architecture- FZ
