Girl at the Rock Show!

Last night Rob and I had the pleasure of taking Edie (and ourselves) to her first Rock Concert!

It was only fitting that for her first show she got to hear one of her Daddy's all time favorite bands: BLINK 182!!!

IT WAS AWESOME!!!

Fall Out Boy opened for them and played a lot of our favorites not to mention the AWESOMEST cover of Journey's Don't Stop Believin'! A-mazing!

Blink - of course - put on a fantastic show! It was so fun to see Rob's face light up when they started playing! I think he really enjoyed it! And of course all of their usual gross boy jokes still make him laugh. Timeless- he calls them. :)

Now the encore - in typical encore style - was quite amazing!

- side story here... the last time Rob and I saw a show together at the Pavilion was back in high school, or just after, and it was also a Blink show! - At that show, Travis (the drummer) had this awesome drum solo Tommy Lee style with the elevated flipping platform.

This time - the elevated platform swug from side to side, tilted forward and rotated in a circle... the pic of this didnt turn out so well... but he's the white circle infront of the other white circles...


All in All it was a fantastic show and we really had a great time! We had some good friends there, the rain held off, the weather was delightful and as old and out of practice as we are - we were able to make it through the entire show! Edie wiggled through a lot of it - so hopefully that means she liked it too :)


Note to ourselves - as cool as we think converse are - they suck for old people having to stand for three hours at a concert and then hiking back to the car... man, are we really that old?!
