Kaskade Concert Review



The only people young and brave enough (and living close enough) to conquer the Kaskade concert with us were the Chapmans. We dropped all our kids off w/ Marisa's family. They enjoyed some time with the kids and we enjoyed a dinner in Bellevue. We hardly ever get out w/o kids and even less often eat out or go to a concert so we are very happy to the Ponds for helping make that possible.

After dinner we went back to the Ponds to help put the kids to bed. Then at 10:30 we went back out. That was really weird to be heading back out to party after putting the kids to bed. Very surreal to be feeling like a college student again, right after the usual very non-young-college kid event of putting your children to bed. We got to the club in Seattle and tried to look like we were in our element. Ronnie looked cool w/ his faux hawk and we had the two best looking women in their by our sides so we immediately felt comfortable and back to our young, no kids, lots of energy selves.

Kaskade came to the mixing table at around 11 (sorry Cody, I told you wrong on the phone) and played some house music the rest of the night with a few of his own radio songs thrown in. It was cool to see him get into it when he mixed some cool tracks together and everybody got into it. He did an amazing mix of One Republic's Apologize and the old song Sweet Dreams by the Eurythmics. Poor Jodee had a glass get knocked off the upper level and hit her in the head, probably the only one that fell down the whole night and she just happened to be there :(

We forgot our camera in the Jeep so we took the above video and these pix with Marisa's phone.


The Chapmans were great dancers and a lot of fun. We didn't get done until (don't read any further mom...) 2 am and got home and in bed at 3. We seemed to do fine the next day so we are still young enough to survive a crazy night like that!

We must not be young enough to handle it anymore cause we had to take a nap on Sunday! However, our Bex did get up at the crack of dawn! Hey, at least we stayed awake in church! Thanks for the fun evening; despite the knot on my head, we had such a fun time with you two, as always! Thank you thank you to Grandparents Pond and Aunt Hillary!

I don't think I would have made it home without falling asleep. Sounds like fun.

You go for it. What a life. Take it while you can. Cause before you know it, Trevor will be dating and you will have to wait up for him to come home at 3:00 a.m. Got to love it. The young life.
