my son wants to go see Elvis Costello with us!

[tigereye]

I am so proud. He is nine and for him to want to go to see someone I admire so much just makes me feel so good! I haven't been able to see Costello when he has been here and I can't wait! Also he has Emily Lou Harris with him. Cool.

(cripe I'm sniffling..) :)

1. Kid's got good taste.

You have reason to be proud.

[tigereye]

3. he likes to sing along with the greatest hits

we both like What's So Funny About Peace Love and Understanding. ( although that is a Nick Lowe song)

6. That's awesome...

You've taught him well, tigereye!!! Congrats, you officially raised a cool kid!

Maybe EC will play something offa Trust. That's my fav album. Have fun!

8. oh that's nice Paul! great pic.

we try to expose him to all types of music. He doesn't like really loud music, though, I have to turn down the pop punk and hardcore or blast it when I'm driving by myself!

:hi:

11. I also love that song.

I know it's intended to be ironic, but I read it straight anyway.

2. Nice

Your kid is officially cooler than every other kid you know.

5. hey that's what I think, too!

he also likes Capt. Beefheart, but that happens with alt. music obsessed parents! All of our freind's kids seem to go through an Ice Cream for Crow stage.

Unfortunately we can't go see Capt. Beefheart, though.

4. Heck, I want to see Elvis Costello w/ you!

[tigereye]

7. wish you could

I know he's on tour. I think he is the most amazing and productive songwriter. I don't know how he does it!

9. I have always loved his music.

My five year old sings along whenever I play his songs.

10. That's very cool!

He's on his way to having great taste in music.

Hi tigereye! :hi: It's been awhile - how are you?

[tigereye]

12. hey Prophetess

what's going on? How are the wedding plans coming along? :hi:

What's new?

We are going to SF in about a week and I am highly psyched!

my son has heard a lot of cool music, but this is the first time he expressed a desire to see a concert!
