15 year old boys are always hungry. I think chocolates, or better yet, donuts! would be appreciated!

I guess the performance has been long gone.

Or maybe, now that he is old enough to appreciate flowers, you can send him a belated bouquet? I don't think flower-giving for men after performances is the norm here in the U.S., as much as in other places. I do remember the banana split my parents treated me to, after my first recital...

Laura, my family always took me to a restaurant for a late dinner in order to celebrate the event, discuss the performance, meet with interesting people we invited to the concert and replenish the energy. It's a wonderful thing to do, sometimes it means much more than any other material gift. When I'm performing in other European countries I usually receive flowers and sometimes a cocktail party in order to meet with the guests of the organizer. Perhaps you could combine some of the interesting suggestions by the others and add something yourself.

Okay, what is he, 17 now? No more rifle, it's time for a 45 or 9 millimeter.
