unless you have also promised your Junior who is in love with Joe Jonas, of the hugely popular Jonas Brothers, or as the Junior calls them “JoBro,” tickets, not ONE but TWO tickets, one for her and one for a good friend, for her 17th birthday (which will come a little less than a month after the actual concert where her head explodes and I am left with a mangled headed almost 17-year-old daughter).
Now, the coolest thing ever is that…the Junior and I have finagled a way for the Sub to take the Junior and her to-be-named-after friend to the concert. THAT MEANS NOT ME. That means I will NOT be in the audience of 12,500 squealing adolescents.
By the way, that doesn’t make me Bad Mommy, since last summer I took the not yet a Junior to the John Mayer concert when he came through Dallas. Bottom line…I can do John Mayer (literally…no, not like that), but I cannot do the Jonas Brothers. That, I’m afraid, is for someone much younger than me…which is why we have recruited the Sub to haul the Junior and the to-be-named-later friend to the Jonas Brothers concert.
Now, I have promised that, to the best of my ability, I will be crazy mad trying to buy 3 tickets come Saturday morning, 10 a.m. We should really hope, big time, that I will SCORE tickets and the Junior will be at the concert come summer, along with her to-be-named-later friend.
I think, after watching her at the Mayer concert last summer, that she is ready to go to a concert at smirnoff superpages.com arena. I feel even better that the Sub will be ‘there’ for them.
I will be sitting in the backyard, probably tending a fire, waiting to hear how the concert was and praying the Sub doesn’t call me for directions to the venue…
Because while I am indeed the World’s Best Mother (because I got Jonas Brothers tickets for the Junior), I am the world’s suckiest direction giver when it comes to Dallas and I will route the girls through the greatest pits of hell before they go hear the angels Jonas Brothers sing.
On other concert news…Counting Crows have chosen the day to be in Dallas…September 6…aka my son’s 10th birthday. My best guess is that the day will be consumed with birthday type activities and not me standing in a mass of 10,000 plus singing Counting Crows songs.
What we do for our children.
Is it really called the superpages.com arena now? Sheesh. I was just getting used to not calling it the Coca-Cola Starplex.
Giver her a googled map or something; it’s really easy to get to. Haven’t been in years but I’m sure it hasn’t moved.
yep. superpages.com. stupidest name for a place EVER. She should be fine, since that’s the only place we ever go to concerts at and we go every summer at least once…but she has a way of surprising me sometimes LOL.
I need to question your declaration of superpages.com as the stupidest name for a place ever.
here in Phoenix we have Jobing.com arena and right next door we have the University of Phoenix stadium. It’s only stupid if you know that UofP is a night, business school that has no sports teams and that it is the professional football team that plays there. Wait, that team is the cardinals so maybe it is appropriate ….
oh MR, you make me laugh so.
I don’t blame you…what a Mom wants is to be heroic without being a masochist. So getting the tickets and not having to actually go is brilliant!
I am a 43 year old mother of 2 teens and I adore the Jonas Brothers! They are so wholesome and really nice boys. I am thrilled that my daughter is obsessed with them, there are so many not good choices out there. This is something we can bond over. She and I spent over an hour on Tuesday this week trying to buy tickets for the Sacramento concert this summer (we live in Boise and that’s about as close as they are coming to us). I also flew with her in February to see them in Salt Lake. We have the fan club
membership so we were able to get presale tickets. We ended up in the 10th row. All I’m saying is, give JB a chance, they are awesome!
Hi Amanda! Thanks for stopping in and saying hi. Thankfully, me and my girls like a lot of the same music and the JoBros are just as cute as they can be. I just think they are darling, but I’m just not sure I could do a whole concert. I think it will be fun for the Sub (the Junior’s older sister) and the Junior to do some sisterly bonding on this one.
I’m hoping that I can get these tickets Saturday. Crossing fingers here!
