Well, I get to cross something off my list...

I went to a concert. I got to see Skillet, which is one of my favorite bands in any genre. And other bands, too, but Skillet just flat-ass rocked the house! It was extremely loud and full of pyrotechnic effects. Just wow. I could've done without the preaching and various pro-life agendas, but other than that, I was glad I went. It was good to leave the house.

Look,here's their tour dates, scroll down to where it says Live and you might have to click "show more", depending on where you're from. Oh, just tell your family they're cello players, who play some rock (you can always play "Path" for them, it's very gentle) and tell them you'd reeeeeeeeeeally like to see them or you'll sulk for days! ;)
I'll be here, keeping my fingers crossed that you make it. Last year I drove 300 km to see 2Cellos, which is a duo of Slovene-Croatian (same mixture as me) classically trained cello players who play covers of rock music and they're really great - so I said fuck it, I'm going, I left the grumpy BF and screaming kids behind for the evening, picked up my sister and off we went - and it was great, totally worth it. :)
I completely understand what you're saying about on-line friends - I rarely have time to meet my RL friends and I'm literally occupied with my daily activities around 16 hours every day - while they also have families and obligations - so I'd probably go bonkers long ago if it wasn't for you guys. *hugs you enthusiastically and is happy you're around*
