Dads with young daughters...
My 9-year old is obsessed with Taylor Swift. It's my fault, I have encouraged her to play the guitar (yes, she's the one I started the thread about a while back).
Last year, I took my oldest daughter to a Chiefs game for her birthday. I spent around $250 for 3 tickets. It was my time to make it right, so I spent an almost IDENTICAL amount per ticket as I spent on the game and bought 3 tickets to Taylor Swift in concert. I am almost certain that I will have to go. ABSOLUTELY not my type of music. But I can't wait to tell her! |

Hell, i'd go too! lol Plus im sure there will be alot of eye candy going to that concert cant be half bad. |
RIP.
Mods, please mark as a prayer thread. |
Its all good brah…We all have to make sacrifices for our kids. At least its not One Direction.
|
The music sucks, but I've learned that the joy of watching them completely blissfully mesmerized by something like that makes it worth it. Plus MILF watching always passes the time.
She's gonna love it for sure. Good on you. |

Good for you, you will be glad you did it. The memory will last a lifetime and you two will not have this opportunity forever. She will be all grown up wanting to do stuff with just her friends soon enough.

The only pop music she's high on (besides Swift obviously) is LMFAO and PSY but that's just because I think it's funny as shit. Yesterday I caught her singing "TNT" by AC/DC in the car. :D My oldest likes Queen and that's about it. The opening act is Ed Sheeran, anybody heard of him? My wife played one song it sounded like typical English pop to me. |
I've got four daughters, it'll be worth it. Any 1-on-1 time I get with any of my girls is precious to me (and hard to get because there is one of me and four of them). Cherish the time
....and enjoy the MILFS!!!! |

I think I might make my 63-year old dad go since I paid for his ticket to the Chiefs game last year. :) |
WEEEEE ARE NEVER EVER EVER...GETTTTING BACK TOGETHER
I USED TO THINK...THAT WE...WERE FOREVER, EVER... |
Quote:
Somehow that doesnt really surprise me about her, either. |
ah man your lil girl will be so excited... I have an 8 year old daughter and I have done my fair share of "chick" things...
Priceless when a Dad can spend time with a young daughter.. because in 8 years they don't want anything to do with you...lol.. Good dad right there.. |
20 years from now, she'll laugh as she remembers how she drug you to a Taylor Swift concert against your will, and how she loves you that much more for it.
Props for being a kick ass dad. |
I REMEMBER WHEN WE BROKE UP..THE FIRST...SAYING THIS IS IT, I'VE HAD ENOUGH...CAUSE LIKE, WE HAVEN'T SEEN EACH OTHER IN A MONTH...WHEN YOU SAID YOU, "NEEDED SPACE", WHAT?
OOOOOH OOOH OOOOOH YOU CALLED ME UP AGAIN LAST NIGHT AND OOOH OOOH OOOOH OOH THIS TIME I'M TELLING YOU I'M TELLING YOU |
My 8 year old daughter is hooked on the NOW THATS WHAT I CALL MUSIC! cds. And none of it is music. So it's funny they call them that.
My 6 year old son likes ...And Justice For All, so we have a bit more in common. |
I have two daughters and have done the concerts and disney on ice and blah blah blah..
now I have a 2 year old boy and can't wait for NFL games, wrasslin and monster trucks.. |

I love T Swift. THE MAQ, I'll go instead.
My most recent ex and I had a weird embrace at our favorite bar where we were joking around and then OF COURSE that song comes on and we had a nice laugh. I LOVE HER T SWIFT, AVRIL, LISA LOEB, CELINE DION, ALANIS MORISSETTE, JEWEL, NELLY FURTADO NOW THAT IS WHAT I CALL MUSIC! |

I took my high school girlfriend to a god damn Kenny Chesney concert and my ****ing god I WISH it was T Swift.
|
You are never, ever, ever, getting that song out of your head.

Now I'm gonna cry. |
My buddy went with his girlfriend to her connect a couple years ago. He said it was all 14 year old girls there.
But there was a benefit, no one in the beer line. |
My 5 year old daughter likes Justin Bieber.
|
Quote:
The new single has a slightly different tempo, I kind of like it. DAMMIT, I'm getting old and soft! |
Quote:
My girls think Justin Bieber is a girl. :D |
Don't worry. I hear Tyler Swift is covering " Children of the Sea" . Although I'd rather hear her version of "Long Live Rock N Roll".

htismage.....looky here man.....many moons ago when my girl was lil.....I had to take her to the Pokemon movie.
let that sink in for a moment. - - - the POKEMON MOVIE! OK. you feel me G?! would I have traded that for T Swift....DUH! it's just to mean to say STFU....so I'll just say.....it could be MUCH MUCH WORSE! good job dad. |
Quote:
She asked me if I wanted to go to a concert and of course, in my state of mind, I thought that would be AWESOME. I was completely oblivious to reality all the way up until the opening act came out on stage... http://ts3.mm.bing.net/th?id=H.45495...82438&pid=15.1 It was at that point that the girl said "Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you the concert was NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK." |

I can picture her as a 2x4 on her back. |
I don't know how old all of your daughters are but here's a word of advice: Start making a list of "chick flicks" that are bearable to watch. You might want to grab copies of them now, especially the older ones. Build a library of these for when they are older. In the middle of the school week when there isn't much time and it's hard to go do anything, grab one and make a giant bowl of popcorn.

I had to take my 2 year old daughter to her first concert, The Wiggles. We actually had a blast! We had good seats so I was able to take her up to the front (mosh pit) so she could dance with a handful of other kids. A bunch of kids and moms then me. One of the Wiggles actually gave me the thumbs up when he noticed I was the only dad up there.
I already bought her a mini drum kit and she plays along to Turbonegro. Hopefully there will be no Taylor Swift concerts in the near future. |
Man I have been to some shitty concerts, all for my kids behalf.
Some were actually fun though. And with age comes taste. Baby steps...Baby steps |
Knocked Up counts, by the way.

I will NEVER watch that movie with my girls. |
Luckily, my kids are big on the animated stuff - Incredibles, Shrek, Despicable Me, How to Train Your Dragon.
I not only can sit through most of those, some of them are actually good movies. |
Quote:
Me: "Nothing, going home to hang with the kids, probably play some Skylanders, watch Clone Wars, fart on each other. You?" Heavy sigh, "Not sure, but I imagine it will involve Barbie movies and Barbie dolls." I'd never been so glad to have boys. ROFL |
My daughter loves Dora the Explorer.
(But she's two) |
Quote:
Despicable Me is my fav. |

Bubble, BUBBLE!, bubble, BUBBLE! BUBBLEGUPPIES!!!!!!!!!!!! I've got her stuck on Spongebob now, because at least I can tolerate that show. Infact, it's pretty awesome, lol. |
Daniel Tiger is the kid wants to watch these days. The damn PVR is just about full.

You should check out Gravity Falls if you haven't yet. I'll sit down and watch that with them. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/juLEHLdS4r0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> |

Now they've started watching again after not watching an episode for over 2 years. I will admit, sometimes they leave the TV on I watch it after they've gone to bed. ;) |

I think my daughter had some nightmares after watching Brave, Paranorman, and Hotel Transylvania. |
