Awesome! Tuesday or Wednesday show? (I am assuming Red Rocks, right?). I am doing the Wednesday show with my friend. I actually had a good time waiting in line because I had a good group around me, but it sucked to get there at 6 A.M. The new stuff takes some getting used to, but I like most of the new EPs.

Hope to hear how everyone liked it. How old are the kids? Fist-f*** isn't in my 5th grader's lexicon yet, but he'd probably dig it. Mom might freak a little.

Tuesday night. It was the hours and hours in line that sucked.

My girls are 11 and 13, but music is music. They have been hearing questionable lyrics their whole lives. On of my oldest daughters favorite songs when she was a toddler was "Stay Fly" by Three 6 Mafia. I'm just happy that they like good music unlike most other kids their age.

Exactly. The more you make something taboo the more weight and intrigue it carries. I'm not taking my son (school night and all) but the rule in our house is that colorful language is OK in context (movies, music, you hurt yourself REALLY bad, etc.) but don't drop it into casual conversation. I was exposed to alcohol early on in moderation, like wine at holidays or nice parties and a little beer on camping trips when I was older, and when the time came to drink I never overdid it. Well, a few times I did on purpose, but it wasn't because I didn't know what to expect!

I do! It's mostly me typing, reading it back, crying, and deleting everything though.

Night 2 of NIN at Red Rocks was awesome. I have seen them 8 times now and I heard stuff that I thought I would never hear live (or don't remember hearing live anyway). Like their newer albums, the show was stripped down and raw with just fog machines and lights but it the band came out like a shotgun and never let up.
