Maybe tomorrow I will.

Just got notified my daughter (15) wants to go to an early all-ages show at my fave local venue (same place I played last week). So we're both going to a rock show together.

THIS should be interesting!

Ciao!

Awesome, that sounds great BK. AOK

Here is the flyer for the show:

This is the club:

As you can see, it's called 1982. I have yet to hear a good explanation why. It's street address is 919, so I know that ain't it.

This is the band Captain Fresh that played. They were our favorite band last night. In the pic they are playing onstage at 1982, but this is from some other show:

This is what the stage looks like. But the gear is from my side band when we played last week. The stage still looks the same. :wink:

I took a pic of me and La Krashpadita with my cell phone and will put it here, when she tells me how I can do that.

:wink: I'm sorta technologically "challenged."

Very cool...I hope when my kids get to that age that I'm still cool enough to take them to shows...did people at the club recognize you?

Just Jen (the bartender) and Dave, the soundman (ex-bandmate from the '90's). I introduced Hannah Beth to them first thing. Dave actually had seen her when she was a toddler or baby when we did the occasional band practice at my house back in the day. There were literally maybe 6 adults in the whole place (besides staff, which was Jen and Dave and a couple people on door) that stayed for any length of time. A group of another 7 or 8 people came in but I think they found it kind of awkward with all the high schoolers, so they stayed less than an hour. The rest of the adults besides me were a couple band members' parents and a couple regulars who are there a lot (apparently).

Actually, it's funny, Hannah's younger brother Jack is just 11 (she's 15), but he went to an outdoor show with me last year. It was a weekend-long festival, and the Hotheads played the second night, so he and I went out Friday night, camped in the tent overnight, and I brought him back home Saturday morning. This is Jack with my old leather (which I've since told him is his, much to his delight and his mother's dismay) and a laminate at that show:

Jack still talks about the drunken chili lady who kept trying to feed us (bands got fed and beered all weekend in lieu of payment)!

Those are going to be great memories for your kids....very cool stuff.... AOK

I hope so. I have a ton of memories with Jack over the last 5 years via Scouts, first Cubs and now Boy Scouts. Jack has been in Boy Scouts less than a year and has already earned his tenderfoot and second class ranks, and 2 weeks ago we spent a day canoeing in the Okeefenokee Swamp up in Georgia. With Hannah there's not as many organized activities for us to share, so I'm hoping that I can take her to a few shows a year at least.

Now back to screen names! Sorry 'bout the thread hijack.
 
No thread here stays unhijacked...its just how we do things biggrin

I had a pretty miserable childhood....I hope to build some good memories with my kids... smi
 
I remember making the ex grumpy once cause when i returned them to her they were all walking around singing "Highway to Hell". lol.

But hey, bouncing around the house playing air guitar to AC/DC, thats some good times with kids right there. hahahaha.
