My neighbor didn't know I played the 'pipes (we had just moved in) and saw me in my kilt. He jokingly asked, "Where's your bagpipes?" I told him they were inside in their box, and asked would he like me to play them for him some time. He said he would, and I agreed to play them the next day. Since I was leaving early that day, I asked him what time he got out of bed. He told me, and the next morning I was outside his bedroom window 10 minutes earlier than the time he had said. He loved it, although I think his wife would have preferred a recital a little later in the day.

He wants to come back, but is concerned my neighbor will be a problem. I said I would invite the neighbor to come over for a concert,...the young man turned pale. 
Sounds like you have a neighbor with a good sense of humor. My wife says this neighbor is apropos, since I spent over 30 years being the one who was called in to fix the problems nobody else could or would handle. Unfortunately, I can't argue with her logic.
