I know I listen to some pretty corporate music, and my classical, and my 'indie stuff' too.... but being loyal to one genre of music just sets you into a group of assfaces that can't see who is behind the curtain.

Wizo's song Raum der Zeit comes to mind for some reason.

My crew of girls were excited for Paramore. I'm proudest of my own 13-year-old daughter, who did NOT want to see them. She wanted to see Tiger Army. I sat on the breaker rocks of the Lake Michigan shoreline reading an advance of the Alan Bennett novella The Uncommon Reader (which is quite sweet).

Which is to really say: What the hell do we punk/indie parents do when the kids listen to crapola? I'm too old and have paid too much for my knees to climb into the middle of the scrum and get banged around. I refused to go to the Parent Tent- which in MKE was Zoobaz Valhalla. What to do? Can't they have the geriatric punk area in some of these venues? A place for the old-timers to go and wax nostalgia about when they saw PIL in '86?

Then whack, ouch...

Someone shouted "Dodge Cougar!" and I turned around looking for a classic American muscle car -- on the streets of Manhattan ?!? Then smoosh, mmmph, hey lady, mmmph...

P.S. I almost wanted to check out Paramore on tour. But I realized that doing so as an older-than-35-year-old male -- unaccompanied by a same-age and/or daughter-age female -- would be just a creepy step away from attending a girls' swim meet or a cheerleading competition.

Which is, of course, the only exception.

Don't be That Guy.

You know, Long Island girls."

Sigh.

And yes, the show was great. Hayley Williams has an incredible stage presence, and the band sounded pretty great.

She even bought me a shirt. But she wouldn't let me get the one that said "Stupid Dumbshit Goddamn Motherfucker" on the back. I'm still bitter about that, Mom.

The show was fantastic.

Also, props to the girl for saying "fuck the coat check" and rocking the t-shirt in freezing weather.

You won't catch me buying the record though...
