Gary.....Dave has grown up listening to grove music blasted around our house and he spends his days playing Guitar Hero and Rock Band so he know's most of the songs that were played at the grove and he's used to seeing me and Rob "headbanging" around the house......i hope he enjoys his night too.

I invited my son and his girlfriend to the last one at the Sheiling. He thoroughly enjoyed. Our moderator was a bit worried about this.. "Are you not morto having a great headbanging session with your son around?" "eh. No" says I, bemused that I should be asked such a question. It never crossed my mind (not much does these days) ------------- Life is for living |

Well, I asked Andrew if he wanted to come along and participate in the Grove experience but he was having none of it. Said it "wasn't really his thing". More like he didn't want to be seen dead in a club full of ageing rockers. Oh well....at least that's the babysitting arrangements sorted!  Jen ------------- "Gentlemen!

Gary....I'll knit you a pair if you're really stuck I'd love to go fancy dress ....but I think I'll be embarressing Dave enough with my headbanging, so I think I'll give it a miss. But I will be wearing Jeans, my beloved desert boots and I've yet to make my mind up about what top to wear......sound like a typical night at the grove from the early 80's to me ------------- You are what you wanna be....age doesn't matter |
