Hey Brad,
The last time my parents saw me onstage was about six years ago, and then five years before that. They've only come down when I've done major shows (both of these were with the Oregon Symphony). I've given up on friends and family seeing my shows. I won't press, I just let them know what's happening, and that I'd like them to come. I never expect them to. That way, they're not pressured and I'm not disappointed. And it's a pleasant surprise when they show up!
