A look inside the world of Pat Monahan of the band Train

Are so much more advanced than adults. They aren’t so jaded and mean. I’m talking about 0-5 really. I’ve seen a few mean ass 6 year olds. But really I’m talking about all kids in general. I suppose that’s why I try to feel younger than I really am. I look at youth as an advantage. Its a look into the future without the nonsense that goes with age. I love kids on stage. They love having the support of one another but they’re all shy enough to behave and I love that. Grown ups are different. Add alcohol and its a real mess on stage. I suppose I just kind of like shy people in general. I find them endearing and compelling. I always like the ones that walk away and I don’t really know much about them. Knowing too much in a short amount of time can be so unattractive. So, there it is..kids are the boss. Even the MGMT song “Kids” is killer. I suppose in a lot of ways I’m more kid like now than ever. I hope that’s a good thing. I’m definitely having fun like never before. I hope I can transfer some of that fun to some of you from stage every night. Just want to share the joy that you all provide me with. Thanks for that.
And thanks for bringing your kiddos to the shows. They’re a lot of fun. Which reminds me..good parents rule too! Love your kids. Your kids love you. And it all starts all over again. Pretty amazing stuff.
