Hi Ed,

I'm livin' in Europe and here's my honest answer:
I didn't have to learn accordian.Instead I played home organ as a kid .
Actually, I don't know any kid that plays accordian nowadays and I have 3 kids
myself (and they have a lot of friends too).
If the parents can afford it they let their children learn piano. Maybe in the
deep woods of Bavaria, Poland and Transsylvania they can be heard some
accordians tortured by kids. ;-)

Really? Me too...which did you played? My family used to have a WERSI
Galaxy...(and IIRC we started with a Hammond). And later my father
exchanged it by a Yamaha Clavinova and a Technics PSR.
I later stopped playing and just started playing around again with
synthesizer when i moved into my own flat, when i became 18.

Your parents must have made you play the digeridoo as a kid... :)
