Cool. Maybe it won't be that bad. Last time I saw them was at Oak Mt around 97 or 98 and the drunk high schoolers were out of control and were annoying.

First time I saw them was 99. I was a senior in HS and then again that summer after graduation. Saw them off an on for years throughout college and a couple of times after before my daughter was born. Then they came back to Pelham two years ago when my wife was pregnant again, and again last year. Her cousin, who just turned 40, is a big fan as well and he came to that show with us. We were all laughing and saying that the crowd has aged as well. There were folks in their mid 40s who were there with their HS aged kids. Definitely not the drunk HS and frat boy crowd from 10 years ago.

We're still up in the air about getting tickets. Especially since it is a weeknight and we have to drive to Tuscaloosa for it. Someone has to watch the kids for us, and getting back so late probably means them spending the night. Last year was a Friday night, and I think the year before was on a Saturday. I remember going to eat wings before with my wife and the semifinals of the NCAA tournament was on.
