My question concerns my son, who was born 5weeks premature, some 18 yrs ago. At the age of 4 i bought a pinball machine that played old rock and roll songs, he homed in on one particular tune on this machine, he would appear at my side when it was playing, and disappear when it stopped. Anyway at age of 9 he asked for a guitar for his Xmas, thinking it would be a 5 minute wonder, we bought him a cheap £20 guitar. This then lead onto him really getting into guitar and we bought him a better electric guitar, with the help of lessons he rapidly became very adept at playing guitar. He prefers playing old rock and roll stuff on it, we thought nothing off it, just strange he doesn't seem to like more modern music.
I was on Internet, just surfing about a particular artiste who played a song he was trying to master on guitar, when date of his death jumped out at me, it was same date as son was born. I thought ok coincidences happen, bit more digging turned up more coincidences. This person was killed in car crash in England, almost 50 yrs ago, though he was American, when my son sings, he has an American accent, he strongly denies he puts it on, it just happens he says. I went to a psychic to try and dispel my scepticism in reincarnation, but she said my suspicions were correct and that my son had "chosen" me as father. Why me, I went back to Internet, to try and find reason, and discovered his best friend (also a rock and roll singer) who was in car crash with him, shared same birthday as me, though not same year obvisually. Too many coincidences were mounting up, having checked film of this singer, i noticed he walked same as my son. I took him too area in England where crash happened, exact spot as there is marker there, he felt nothing, great I thought all nonsense then.
We then went to the theatre where he last performed before leaving in car that he died in, as was a Sunday morning it was closed, we had a look then i said right lets go, he said not yet got to check out Stage door. I said there isnt one, he was adamant though, and in spite of pouring rain, he set off round corner, ha i thought houses there, now admittedly the houses were newish and wouldnt have been there in 1960, undaunted we went back to front of theatre, and he spotted a side street at other end, we walked up there and sure enough there was a Stage door, looks as if it is same for last 50yrs. One night he was sitting idly strumming guitar, i was out, his mother was watching TV, she heard him say "**** I cant remember how i used to play that" it was a less well known song by this singer. He also was passing a charity shop, when he spotted a guitar, that was just being placed in window, he marched straight in and bought it for £15, his mother was with him, and she said he came out with it he couldn't remember walking in shop! We took guitar to repair man, who checked it out and said it was ok to use, and that it was made around 1959.
My son is now at college learning Sound Engineering, which this singer was very interested in before he died. Now 50th anniversary of this singers death is on my sons next birthday, his mother and I are worried whether this will have any implications for him, or, indeed us! Please if anyone can refute this or confirm my suspicions I would be delighted, as I can't talk about this to just anyone, think I'm a nutjob. :laugh:
