Some teenagers would kill to go to a Lamb of God show – never mind the luxury of VIP access and such, since we’re friends of the band members, in particular, vocalist Randy Blythe (as discussed recently) and guitarist Mark Morton (whom my husband has known since the seventies, and I’ve known since 1990). Here’s my girl at her first (and thus far, only) such show:
Now, contrast that with the same teenager’s reaction to a Jonas Brothers’ show? No contest!
The funny thing? At the very event where the latter show occurred (Virginia’s State Fair, 2007) we also hung out for awhile with Randy, who gave our daughter some good-natured grief for her lack of enthusiasm for the metal genre.
Well, no one can say we’re not exposing the kids to a… variety of cultural experiences.
