Yo Gabba Gabba Concert





I completely forgot to record the Yo Gabba Gabba concert we attended the day after Thanksgiving 2011. I must mention, last year I bought our family tickets to attend last year. Unfortunately, Ahmed couldn't make the concert because he had booked a gig on that same weekend. But this year we were fortunate to make the concert together and we had a great time. The Yo Gabba Gabba World has been a big part of our lives. It has put together social life lessons in really fun musical ways. Sitcom fashions perfect for your 2yr to understand; ie. why it's important to share, why we wash our hands, why we should not be afraid, trying new things, etc. I like to call this program part of Marley's Nickelodeon University.
We were so excited for the concert to begin. All of the children concert goers were wearing their favorite characters on their shirts, hats, scarfs, shoes,etc. Even some of the parents were rocking their favorite characters too. It was so much fun, I think we were slightly more excited to rock out to our Gabba songs than Marley was. The show began and we must have looked ridiculous to Marley because we were singing the songs really loud, smiling like crazy parents, ogling our eyes, over enunciating words to coax him to do the dance and sing a long. I so wish we could have had his visuals.....because he could have totally blackmailed us for life! All in all Marley fell for it and loved every minute. We even got a hook up through a dancer friend of mine who dances in the Brobee character costume. She invited us to the VIP Backstage experience, taking pictures with all of the characters, listening to DJ Lance Rock and Leslie reading stories to the children and beat boxing with the one and only Biz Markie. It was an amazing nite. I was so happy to experience this day as a family.
