What does this picture say to you? Bizarre Super Bowl commercial? "Bedside Toys: The Musical?" Or did you automatically recognize this guy as Muno? If it was anything but the latter, then you would have found yourself quite confused, and possibly traumatized, by the experience Eli and I had last Friday. If you knew it was Muno, though, you could've had more fun than you care to admit with the toddler/preschool set at Yo Gabba Gabba Live.
I drove Eli up to Fort Wayne, Indiana to see DJ Lance Rock and the gang take their trippy Nick Jr. show on the road. It was originally supposed to be some bonding time between Eli and Mike, but then he had to go and get a job. I'm guessing it doesn't speak too highly of your dedication if you tell your new boss, "Yeah, I'll start next Monday, but then I'll need Friday off to get my preschool groove on."
I'll admit it: I wasn't super-excited to pull Eli out of school and drive 3 1/2 hours in one day. I figured I'd already paid my dues. I did suffer through "The Wiggles Live" with Elena, after all. Then again, if sitting next to Clint Black at The Wiggles is suffering, I'll take a little more, please. This is what happens when you see The Wiggles in Nashville.
Something funny happened in that theater, though. I had a pretty good time. Maybe it was the utter goofiness of these characters.
Maybe it was the balloons.
Maybe it was the infectious songs (Holy guacamole! We got chips!)
No. I'm pretty sure it was because of Biz Markie. Any kids' show that finds a way to incorporate a live appearance by Biz Markie is a-ok by me. Even if I did see Biz's butt crack on the big screen, it was still awesome. Or maybe it was awesome because I saw Biz's butt crack? I swear in all my life I never imagined I'd be blogging about Biz's butt crack.
If your kids are Yo Gabba Gabba fans, and the show is coming anywhere near you, you won't want to miss the opportunity to see it live. We had a fabulous time. Until it was over, that is.
Was this before or after the Unfortunate Lip Incident? Because it looks pretty awesome, albeit quite sad, in that pic.
We also had an awesome time at that show! I wish we could have been there together. I’m pretty sure I had more fun than Lorelai. Must blog our adventure soon.
Less than 24 hours before The Unfortunate Lip Incident – look at that unblemished skin! I love the new term by the way. From here on out previous accidents and injuries (hopefully there will be no new incidents for a while) will be classified as a Series of Unfortunate Incidents. Lets see, weve had the Unfortunate Broken Arm Incident, the Unfortunate Penis Incident, and now this.
Sorry to hear about The Unfortunate Fever Incident at your home.

wow.. How I wish I’m in that place to watch that show live.. I’m sure my kid will love that show..
Ha! The Unfortunate Penis Incident just sounds so… bad — I wonder if you can even say that phrase in the presence of a male and not have him shudder?
