When I found out a couple of weeks ago that Rocknoceros was going to be at Ebenezers, I was so excited. Torin LOVES their music...it's the first thing he asks for when we get in the car. I've taken him to see them before and he's enjoyed it but it's been a while and he's older and more interactive, so I was anticipating how he would react.
We got to Ebz a little early and they were still warming up. Torin ran around, going up and down the stairs, talking to other kids as they came in and watching the drums.
About five minutes before the concert started, Torin planted himself in the middle of the floor, on his stomach, and just laid there. I thought for sure when the music started that he would get up and sing and dance.
I was wrong. He just laid there. Finally Chris picked him up and brought him by us but he wouldn't even sit in our laps...just wanted to lay on the floor. I thought for sure he wasn't feeling well or that something was wrong...he didn't even clap after any of the songs...and he does that for every song in the car.
When the show was over, Chris took him to get his hand stamped by one of the band members and it was like magic...he was up and going again...acting like his normal self. I guess he was just tired and needed a little rest? I have to say I was a little frustrated that I paid $30 for us go to the concert so Chris and I could sing the songs and he could lay there and rest.
Oh Torin, I never know what to expect with you. Such is life I suppose. Guess we'll try again when they're back the next time.
