This weekend, I am heading to Ocean City to escape from the truly miserable summer that is just beginning here in DC. So another weekend of partying and catching up on local bands, right? Er… maybe not so much. The catch is, I am totally bringing my mom.

Not that my mom is a total downer or anything. In the 60s, she saw Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, Joan Baez, and Bob Dylan before he was famous, making her kind of my show-hound role model. Doing the math from there, though, you can probably imagine that she wouldn’t be super impressed if I took her to Seacrets. And I’m not sure the DNL Friday Spotlight at Booty’s would be her speed, either. So this week I’m looking at the question of which events in OC are most Mom-friendly — and, by extension, Boomer-friendly in general. Shows and parties that rock, in a classic kind of way, without featuring more decibels than the OC Air Show or hosting a rehearsal for the next Girls Gone Wild video. Check back throughout the week for what I find — and next week for my mom’s reaction!
