Oh man, you guys should be worried sick! Remember what YOU did at rock concerts when you were 17?? Well, you can bet THEY'll be doing same thing! Just substitute the acid with extacy, and the angel dust with crack, and you'll have it. Also you gotta worry about the Hells Angels, I heard they're going to be there. They want to recruit some underage girls to run weapons into town, and Adam...man, a rockker like that should be able to get a FEW girls in the back seat at once! Oh yeah, the T is bad too, strychnine.<br>Sounds like a fun show(:<br>

dont worry about it xqya...you raised yer kid well, and now its up to him to make good decisions.  sure hes going to party and have a good time with his friends at these festivals/concerts, you just got to let him go and trust he won't get too crazy.  they are actually good learning experiences for a young chap.  if bonnaroo wasnt too far away/expensive/etc i would go in a second.  my festival this summer is going to be phish's final blow-out up in vt.  i cant promise good decisions will be made up there....

I was prepared for this to be a bad day.  I am "celebrating" various things that have happened in my past today.  I happened while looking for my birth certificate for my new job to run accross the marriage cert and the divorce decreee from my ex.  The divorce having happened only a couple of days from when we would have celebrated our anniversary  (June 16). in '89.  I didn't remember it until today and then everything falls into place.  That and several other things destined this day to be sad and depressing.  But it has ended up being better than I thought it would.  Because I am here.  I do some of my chores and then come back here and talk and everything is okay, discussing Zappa and anything else and reading your posts about sense and nonsense....  Thanks guys!  Have a good evening!  You are crazy in the way I am crazy!  8)
