    This lady is telling me bringing my family to west palm beach where my whole family lives mom bro exct, and going to a show with a boardmeber from here is sick and selfish.
    But her taking a 9 year old to a motley crue show is normal.
    And my kids are going to grow up with emotional problems becasue I am too strict.
    Am I still on plannet Earth, or did something goe really wrong on my street tonight.
    why are you arguing with ignorance?

    Hey! you'll be there one day.

    I'm 51 and am buying tickets for my 24 yr old son. He and my 18 yr old son don't have a problem with it.

    that seems like such an ignorant thing to say

    we're in a different era my friend. people in their 50's started partying in the late 60's and 70's , when the Who, Rolling Stones, Dead, plus a hundred other great rock bands were playing. if someone enjoys a good rock band, why would they stop going to shows? not everyone's values change to match society's norms.

    plus, not all "older" adults have extra expenses - they don't all have children or house payments or expensive cars. if a 20 yr old can afford a $65 ticket when they are making $10 an hour at McDonald's why wouldn't a 50 yr old who makes a hell of a lot more ?


    thank you.

    ahhh... 40, 50 doesn't feel a whole lot different than 24, 32, 17... well, ok, there are SOME differences, but mostly for the better. I wouldn't want to go back. And the "relevance" of music is just as strong now as it ever was.

    Your sig is a violation of the the First Commandment but my keeping you from doing it would violate your First Ammendment Rights. I took my kid to Motley Crue. You are worshiping a band who glorifies a convicted murderer. Yet you stand in judgment who is acceptable and who is unacceptable for other peoples kids. You are a narcissist and a marxist. People can and should be able to decide for themselves.

    Looking back at this response I must have been temporarily insane to even consider debating parenthood with you.
    You should alert the national securites bureau, let them know there is a guy running around like me in here.
    I am starting my own cult too.
    I love it thank you for giving my wife and I something to laugh at.

    Well, I do need to take Advil after the shows for my aching bones. I never needed to do that in my earlier years. But the loud music doesn't bother me anymore since my hearing is shot anyhow!

    Your family sounds like a cult. The two of you, Damian Echols and Charles Manson.

    I don't care that there are those that "slam" me. There have been many people in prison - let alone Death Row - whom are in fact - innocent. I personally will follow the facts - and disregard those whom don't. Based on the facts...I will draw my conclusions.

    WTF???? I know you meant no dis-respect. But seriously. When I was in my 20's - I thought those in their 40's were old. (and creepy!) However - now that I'm in my 40's (now I'm "lowering myself to remind you how old EV is) - I think you kinda suck for your remark. Thanks for reminding us we are no longer "your" age. Been there. Done that. No repeats....thank you. I go forward....not backwards. You'll be here....where I am.....sooner than you think. Don't picture us over 40 in a "Home" with Hospice workers. You will in fact appreciate what I stating right now....when YOU in FACT get HERE. Sit next to me at Tampa - why don't ya. I''ll try my best not to out-race you with my Hover-round! Are you Frikon serious????!!! Hello!!!????

    Stop drinking out of the toilet, it makes you say carazy shit.
    You made your point.
    I am a bad parent for not letting my 9 year old go to motley crue, and I am a narcicist for inviting my family to west palm beach so my wife and daughters can soak up the sun for 3 days, while I go to a concert that is prob 4 hours.
    I will seek counselling.

    Don't listen to "spoon fed" crap via this message board. I hope that you don't take these "half-assed" remarks to beg with you and think these repies make up whom you are as a person. This is exactly where your sense of humor needs to "kick-in!" Seriously. Come at me as well - you little Anti Christs - I am a Jain anyway! Jokes on you! Little rodents! Live and let live!
