Brooklyn Library Rock Concert with Aunt Margot


On this Saturday, we piled into the Prius and headed towards Prospect Heights to see the Idy Biddy's, a folky-clever-nerdy-kid-friendly 3 piece band (Shana is friends with the bassist (upright!) Saskia) at the Brooklyn Library. We'd never been there and it was kind of excellent, what with it's grand elegance and multitude of handicapped ramps. Margot met us there for the show.

After a tune or two, we brought Nate to the front of the stage and soon he found himself in a scrum of kids all dancing and carrying on in a kiddy mosh pit. He looked kind of bewildered. He balanced himself on the stage and peered up at the musicians. Chaos collided all around him. He didn't say much.


Indeed, Nate was kind of like that creepy music fan who plants himself in the front and doesn't react or sway or anything. Except Nate would try to grab one of the chords snaked on the stage. We think Nate had fun though at this point it's hard for him to convey when his vocab is essentially "Hi", "Dadda", "Mamma" and "Bye". It was good to hang with Margot though and for Nate to mix it up with his Aunt.
