You’d better get a bigger gun, I’m not dead yet!

Back in the late 80’s, my sisters, my friends & I would go to see this local band, The Bad Examples, whenever they were playing at any bars near us.

One night, after a show, we were sitting and drunkenly talking to the band. We talked them into saying they’d meet us at this dance club, since the bar was closing up for the night.

On the way to the dance club, I got my first and only DUI. :( We never got to the dance club, so I have no idea if the band actually went there or not.

The singer from that band has gone on to do children’s music (although, I think the ‘grown-up’ band is still performing, too). The other night, I took the kids to Border’s to watch him perform some of the stuff from his new children’s CD.

I’m not sure which of his audiences was more intelligent & coherent… Our drunken group from 1988 - or - the mass of 3,4,5 & 6 year olds from earlier this week. :D

  1. That must have been an interesting feeling.. to see a guy from a band that you were a young adult seeing now singing to your children! Did they enjoy it?

  2. I think they did :D We bought his DVD so they could watch him at home, too. I suppose I’ll have to get some of the CD’s before too long, too
