What concerts have your kids dragged you to?


My son just turned 13 and is going to see his current favorite band " System of a Down "at a local arena that holds about 12k people.
Theres no way hes going without a parent so I get the honor of taking him as well as one of his freinds in two weeks.
He is already trying to get me to take him to a "Foo Fighters/Weezer" concert also.
So what bands have your kids talked you into going to see with them that you most likely would not have seen otherwise?

I don't beleive the music itself is going to bother me as Systym of a Down definitely has a unique sound...like metal meets an opera voice or something.

My dragged comment was more about mosh pits and left handed smokes ect....and trying to keep them away from both.
I am in tune with most of the younger generations music...and my boy just got a Gibson SG and a Marshall amp for his 13th birthday....same guitar that....you guessed it Systym of a down uses.
I can remember being a Black Sabbath ect fan when I was his age and my parents put up with it and much more.
Just wish I would have got a Gibson electric instead of a crappy used Yamaha classical guitar....lol
I see that some of you have endured much worse as far as being dragged to something you most likely would not have gone to....amusing responses for sure.
As much as I hate to admit this....I actually enjoyed myself at this concert and Systym of a Down is a talented high energy band.......very high energy.

Never thought I would actually like this concert....but the decibels were a bit much.
The first two bands were not that great though.
Apparently...they were filming several songs for there new upcoming Systym of a Down release videos also.

One thing that took me by suprise is that they did an entire Dire Straits song...which was there only cover out of 28 songs.
Never thought I would here Dire Straights being played by a hardcore metal group.

To any of you youner or high spirited middle aged people who are already fans....don't miss this band if it comes your way imo.
