I've never been much into physical discipline as a father

But dammit I will not put up with our one son. Trash talking Dad’s preferences for amp tubes. Dad is a 6v6 type of guy not El 84’s. Dad likes headroom I’m a clean player at times. Who doesn’t like when you push a amp to break up but dammit ,I will not put up with this kind of talk in my house at breakfast.

If you don't, youre switching guitars to get to the right amp. If you ain't got a MC Glamrock who can work the crowd, ya got dead air. That's a fucking cardinal sin. And true frobtmen are hard to find. That kinda ego is 1 in 100,000. And you hsfta deal with it even when ya don't need it. Explain in those terms.
