    Would love to!! But can you imagine the tears from my daughter!!
    If she does go...it'll be her first big gig...one which I'm sure she'll remember for years!!

    Do many other kids go...or would she be the only one?

    She'd have a great time and be the envy of all her friends :D
    I've seen the killers twice live and they are brilliant. Also, when I go to Glastonbury festival there are always heaps of kids there having the time of their life. It was the same at Live 8 at Hyde park. I think it'd be a great experience for her.....and what an amazing first gig!!! :j

    Ooo, you're a whole year older than me then :D

    It's nice to be able to go along to gigs with the kids. I remember being with my daughter a few rows back from Busted on stage, her face was a picture :) She couldn't believe it was them so close in front of her :)

    I once took both the kids backstage to meet Neil Hannon of The Divine Comedy, Uncle Neil as they used to call him ;) And my daughter and I met Alex Parks in the girls loos at the DC Royal Albert Hall gig !!

    Loads of kids at the Wembley gigs - to be honest they don't say anything racy or unsuitable for kids ears, in fact whilst they are a great act, they don't say much at all!!!!!

    I was relieved that I didn't take the kids to see the Scissors at Wembley though ! Wouldn't have like to explained the 'act with the microhone whilst being on all fours' !!!!!!! Lol

    The memories stay with you too. I remember at the age of 5 or so in the 70's going to my first gig.... Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel... He's a relative of mine, and I remember piling on a coach with a load of other relatives and going off to Wembly I think, mostly remebering the light show more than anything, but clearly remembering my Mum worrying for my life when I proclaimed in the loos that I had 'Uncle Steves' autographed concert program in my hands, lol !!
