Jim, I agree with you wholeheartedly! The problem with "nana" is not so much her "advice" but her knowing it all and condescending attitude. I am soooooo happy that people are waking up and putting her in her place. I do not understand how so many different people try to tell her about her attitude but I guess denial is denial.
On a more positive note, I joined this forum because I wanted to be around people who have a band. Sometimes friends and family members can't understand us or offer advice because they don't have band experience. That's why this forum is so great. I am trying to see the positive side of everything, and with that being said and I can't believe I'm doing this, but I think that Nana was giving good advice.
