perhaps you could compromise. spend time with your grandfather later, for his 80th birthday is certainly an important event for him and his family that he and his family probably want to share with you. however, if you have already made important commitments, you can't avoid them. explain the situation, tell him / your parents you would like to celebrate the special event with him, but unfortunately can't this weekend. set up a time to see him later this summer, maybe. you made commitments. you need to stick to them.

if i was in that position i know i would be really upset about missing the chance to have the house to myself / do sweet music things. but at the same time, your grandpa is turning 80 and that is a pretty big deal, and you would probably feel guilty for not going. but your grandfather and parents probably understand that you are basically almost an adult, and part of growing up is sticking to the things you are responsible for, even if it means disappoitning others. i mean i guess the real question would be why you are staying home, i think if it is to have fun, you should go to your grandfathers bday thing, but if it is cause you dont wantto let others down cause you have a responibsilty to live up to, you should stay home.
ummm.. .yeah... haha that is like my 2023723 embaressingly long comment of the night.
Personally, I'd go to see your Grandad, but that's probably just because I'm jealous because all my grandparents died when I was 6
So, thinking of your grandad as my uncle instead...
I would stay home, get him a good present, or a nice card... have your family members take lots of pictures, and decide on a time to go spend time with him this summer
