Alas our concert quest has come to an end. Actually it ended with the last day of school and report cards. My daughter's grades simply weren't up to snuff (not even close).
She worked hard. Very hard. She came home from school and babysat. And pet sat. Then she'd do homework. But she couldn't do it all. She had a herculean task in front of her and it was simply too much.
And so, when school ended, she came to me and told me she was putting the concert tickets up for sale. No fuss. No moaning and groaning. I suspect she wanted to spend her summer relaxing rather than working. And I don't blame her.
The two big tickets sold this week. For $900.00 a piece. No joke. There was a 15% surcharge to sell the tickets. The rest of the money goes to the girls. They earned it. The two smaller tickets are also up for sale but haven't sold yet.
I'm told the band is working on a fourth album. And with that they are likely to tour. Chloe tells me she'll be buying tickets (with permission of course).
And so ends an interesting story in our lives. I hope lessons were learned.
XO.

I am impressed that you stuck to your contract terms. Most parents would have felt bad for their kids and let them go anyways. This was no doubt a huge lesson for your daughter to learn.
It is totally insane that anyone would pay $900 to see a manufactured boys band. Wow.
