The first band their drummer was ever in was mine.
I heard him play a half song and told him he was in if his parents said it was ok! He was only 15 and was already becoming a monster player. His brother was a well-known drummer in the Illinois club scene so his parents were on board.
If we played somewhere that served alcohol, one of his parents always came. Very supportive.
