      the soccer team, man. I gotta assume you've seen VH.

      Funny thing is...I never even played soccer growing up, but I sort of rescued the team last season after the old coach bailed (typical overbearing parent bullshit). The poor kids hadn't even won a game before the tourney; I got 'em to win a few games and got drafted for this year.

      I'd think about skipping the game, but I just gave the kid the old lecture about honoring your commitments, etc, etc. Gotta set that example. But also gotta get in a VH roadtrip, so that's why I bought my Louisville ticket today.

      Shit, enough about parenting and soccer and other shit that reminds me that i'm old. Back to the Greensboro topic, change me to a definite maybe.

        Don't even get me started on this...

        I had a long-ass debate with my wife about why both of my kids should be going to this show with me (they are all of 7 and 9). She says no way...and I say it may be the last time they get a chance, knowing this band.

        The kids and I sat around yesterday afternoon watching tattoo and some other videos...

        Ahhh...to create classic VH fans...

          You can up me down as a maaaaybe for either Greensboro or Charlotte since I'll be traversing Florida the week before, but I sure would love to catch up with you all again!

                    Well, he won't admit it, especially around his friends, but he had a great time in the 6th row at UVA....

                    But I just think while he had a good time, it's gonna be a one-time (actually twice, in NJ also) shot....

                    He'll probably be playing ball that day anyway....

                            Take 'em, pojo. I took the son to the Atlanta show in 08, when he was 7. He had a blast. Actually, the best one was a Roth show in Orlando, when the kid was only 5. All the people near us were astonished that this kid knew all the words. Shit, I'm already starting to lose him; he's getting up to that age where his Dad's music isn't cool anymore.

                              No, she's the one that got away... It's been almost 3 years now. Sad, really... it became long distance when she went to get her PhD and I couldn't sell/rent/give away my condo and it fell apart - what can ya do? Now I'm bored and old...

                              But thanks for bringing it up, jackass!
