65/365 Doodlebops Concert

My mom and I took the kids to a Doodlebops concert tonight and I have to say I was really disappointed. We arrived 2 hours early so that we could get good seats. It was outside at a park (so they said to bring lawn chairs and blankets and what not) so we brought our own chairs/playpen for Logan. The show was supposed to start at 7pm but they didnt even come on stage until 8pm (by then my kids were pretty much over it). Now that alone wouldn't have made me so disappointed but I cannot believe how RUDE people are! We had blankets layed out and people trampled all over them and rolled over them with their strollers and didnt even apologize or say excuse me or anything! Then when the show FINALLY did start there was a ton of last minute comers who basically were beyond rude. They weren't watching their kids and one large family even stood right in front of us so Rory couldn't see (there was plenty of space for them to stand elsewhere and their kids were older like 8-10 while Rory is just 2.5 let the little one see GEEZE) another lady's son kept almost knocking Logan's playpen over and then spilled his drink all over Rory! Meanwhile my mom was in her lawn chair and about 4 kids were basically all OVER my mom leaning on her chair and these weren't cute little kids these were older kids who SHOULD have known better, but then again why would they when their parents obviously DO NOT watch them. Half of the people who I saw attend were really nasty trashy ghetto people and honestly ruined it for the rest of us. We didn't even stay very long because Rory was upset and wanted to go home, she kept saying "home. . home. . " Logan was getting irritated and upset too. So we decided to pack up and leave that nastiness. On our way out we noticed most of the non-trashy/ non-rude people were leaving as well. I think it is really sad when people can't bring their children to something and let them enjoy it because other people are rude and don't watch their bratty kids! I honestly don't blame the Doodlebops for this ruckus though, I think it was poor management of the city of Beaumont for the way they planned it. I mean seriously LITTLE kids/toddlers like doodlebops why the heck are you going to have the concert start after most of their bed times??? Come on people get a freakin clue! I truly hope that this isn't a reflection of how the city of Beaumont truly is because if it is, then I am SO glad I don't live there!

Anyways, here are some pics from when we first got there (2 hours before)
