On the 10th Day of Christmas: Rock Out

Yesterday we gave the gift of martial arts, but if you know someone who prefers a more serene approach at finding peace of mind, why not give the gift of music? Buy the aspiring musician a new or used guitar, keyboard, drums or whatever instrument suits their style, and even follow up with lessons if you really want to inspire.

Here are a few spots in Levittown where you can buy instruments, sign up for lessons and even equip a DJ:

Monster Music Co.

Location: 3068 Hempstead Tpke. 

Phone: 516-735-3594

Monster sells and rents all types of instruments and teaches 500 private lessons a week. Four weeks of lessons (once per week) costs $85, and for $240 you can save on 12 weeks of lessons. Gift cards are also available for the more unpredictable musician.
