The only music I can play in my living room these days is the odd lot of contemplative classical guitar, as anything else would wake up the family at night... :)

I'm guessing that they weren't talking about your positive attributes.
Well ... there is nothing better than turning criticism into music. That's some beautiful piano playing.
