Last Saturday night, my partner Alex and I ventured out to catch a performance by Swell Season, the band featured in the film Once. While it’s not typically our go-to genre, they’ve got undeniable talent—after all, we like to think we can be a little adventurous once in a while.
Here are my candid thoughts from our rare night out:
First off, being carded after having three kids is downright laughable. I almost considered revealing my stretch marks just to skip the hassle of proving my age.
Opening acts can be a real downer. The crowd often seems indifferent, just waiting for the main event to begin. The poor performer last night even got booed off stage! It was a rather disheartening sight, especially since he bore a striking resemblance to a serial killer.
At standing-room-only shows, personal space becomes a forgotten concept. This was particularly unfortunate for someone like me who cherishes a bit of breathing room. And let me tell you, discreetly passing gas isn’t the key to gaining more space. It only leads to your partner loudly exclaiming, “Did someone just fart?!”
Standing for two hours straight felt significantly less enjoyable than it did a decade ago. Who knew age would catch up so quickly?
If you happen to ask your 13-year-old neighbor if she’s been to an over-21 venue, you can bet the answer will likely be “no.” If she says “yes,” it might be time to reconsider having her babysit your children.
While live music does have its charm, nothing quite compares to a cozy Saturday night on the couch with my laptop. I guess I’m a total loser for that!

In summary, while a night out at a concert can be fun, it often pales in comparison to the comfort of home. As parents, we navigate a lot, and sometimes, staying in feels like the best adventure of all.
