I'm sure my two here are helping keep me young! :lol: :lol:

Both lads are upstairs right now as I type and are both singing along to Oasis!

The other day Jacob had Elvis Costello on his ipod..I thought it was Don listening to it so was delighted when I realised it was Jacob. :D :D

It's great to hear all the music we love/loved and now being enjoyed by our two lads. :D :D

Not sure what the neighbours think when the 4 of us are screeching Wonderwall!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Nothing like some good music to put a smile on your face and a spring into your step.... and to keep young :)

Ally, Noel is on my list of people to see too, be prepared 8-) Although Don can come to that one, as Tim likes him too

I'd think it was nice too if Bb's boys listened to Oasis etc...they do both like Queen but sadly eldest's first love is definitely heavy metal :D Metallica, Iron Maiden...all vibrate-your-bones stuff. Not that I don't like it actually, but not when we ask them to choose a cd for while we're eating dinner :lol:

Tonight there's an AC/DC concert on BBC4, Live at River Plate - the dvd is £12-£13 on amazon, but we're recording it onto a disc and have copied the cover front and back so we can print it off :)
After it is an Iron Maiden programme, so he's getting that as a bonus :)

One of my first memories of being a Mom is connected to music. Tom was about 3 weeks old and was sleeping in his Moses basket in the living room. I was cleaning in the kitchen so put some music on, Oasis actually. I got lost in the music and as I cleaned it got louder and louder...then suddenly it hit me "I have a baby, and he's sleeping". I rushed in to the other room to check on him...and there he was, kicking his legs and smiling :lol:
They've both been brought up listening to our favourites and enjoy listening to them themselves.

We used to go to Le Lavandou every year and drive through the night. I had an eight CD changer so could go Calais to Le Lav without hearing the same tune twice. It was all a mix of 60s, 70s and 80s and the children were asleep - pas problem.

Daughter used to take her moby CD player so that she could listen to her [C]Rap music.

One day I noticed, as she was in the middle of her four hour make-up session, her foot tapping. 'That's not rap' I thought, so I sneaked up and nicked the CD player.

"Dad, NOOOOoooo."

She had been in the car and 'borrowed' a CD with the 70s hits. She has never looked back. :D :D :D :D :D
