Most of my musical influence came from my piano teacher I had as a child, and then subsequently from my friends/ own tastes. And music forums!
A Day In The Life of Lateralus:

"Hey mom and dad, you've got to check out this album I just got. It's by a band called Tool, and they're awesome!"

Dad: "Scapel?"

"No, no, Dad it's music, y'know like recorded sounds? Let me just put it on for you guys and you'll see...

(puts on 10,000 Days)

Dad: "WHAT THE? MOM WE'RE GONNA NEED 40CC'S OF NUTELLA STAT!!!!!!!!"
