Tonight, Collin got some one-on-one time with Mom and Dad... we took him to see the Blue Man Group perform live in concert at the Honda Center. Since he was a toddler, Collin has always enjoyed banging on drums (what kid doesn't). When we went to Vegas last August, he was introduced to the Blue Man group via the Venetians in-house tv channel and totally loved watching the "drum guys" whenever we were in our room. Charles and I had already been to a few other BMG concerts so when we found out they were coming back to Anaheim, we decided to get tickets and this time, we decided to bring the little "drum guy" fan to his first real rock concert.
He loved it. He rocked out and was totally having fun and smiling when we helped him do the rock concert movements during the show. And when we got home, which was after 11pm, he went upstairs to get his little toy drum and asked to watch the Blue Man DVD we have and drummed along like he was a blue man himself. Knowing that he really really had fun makes the ticket price worth it since when he's older, I'm certain he won't remember going to this concert. I guess that is what photos are for! (And I didn't get many because I forgot to charge my little camera's battery and of course it died on me.)
Isn't it the best to see your child get into something? So happy to hear Collin had a good time. And, ditto on 'Rock Band.' I don't play but my two big "boys" do and they have so much fun together.

That's cool! I haven't even seen the BMG. Having a child of my own, I now know what parents mean when they say, "when you see your kids having fun, you have fun!"

how cool!!
I think you should go to Tina's to play Rock Band. Mike and I thought for weeks about whether or not we should buy one...it's pretty fun.

Collin is a megastar. Even I haven't had the chance to see the BMG yet! I am so glad he had a great time. When our kids have fun, we have fun!

Super cute, I think my girls would be scared of the Blue Men! I'm glad Collin enjoyed the concert and was a good boy throughout ... that's not easy!
