Upcoming Shows

So, the last concert I went to was Tom Jones, and boy was that ever a sight. Haven't gone to anything since, which is a sad statement on both my own life and the types of entertainment available in the 413.

BUT! We're straying deep into 203 & 860 territory with the kids:
First, Josh and I will be accompanying his future wife and my BFF to see Nick JR Live! at the Oakdale (I don't think it's called that anymore...maybe I should make an effort to find out the venue name before I try driving there. Moose, Zee, Dora the (gag) Explorer, The Backyardigans (we don't care about them), Ni Hao Kai Lan, and the Wonder Pets (what's gonna work, BEADWORK!!) await in this fun-filled assault on our senses. Have I mentioned that Josh can hang a spoon from his nose? That's actually YoGabbaGabba-inspired. Those tickets are WAY too much money and they don't come within 300 miles of 413, the shiny, happy bastards.

Next: Thank God Junior is finally old enough to go have meaningful "cultural" experiences with me - we're going to see David Sedaris at The Warner in April. She recently talked her book club out of reading Twilight in favor of Sedaris's Naked, which is at least a partial validation of the appalling amount of money we spend on her schooling (apparently she had complete support of the staff on striking Twilight from the running, which is another validation). This will be my third time seeing Sedaris, and I'm a little concerned that I might be turning into a groupie.
