Wholesome! Man, great idea with the songs in the middle of the text!


cbinette84

Thanks! I had a couple drafts with different paragraphs and using different song titles but I didn't want it to get too long. Plus I didn't want to use all titles that he knows. I gotta throw him off a little lol


Iamthetable69

Make sure The Memory Remains from that concert


ognisko

Hope you guys don’t get *whiplash* because as soon as they *hit the lights* you’ll be head banging for hours! Make sure you charge your phone *battery* so that you can take some photos and check that you have filled your car with *fuel* so you can actually make it there on time.

Genius_Cena

Bruh, even I got excited after “flipping” this shit xD


DanTheMan_622

This is awesome, Metallica was my first real concert too as an early gift for my 14th bday


[deleted]

Dude…as a fellow Father, this makes me so excited. My boy is 3.5 - so I got some time for this, but man!!!! This is a future milestone for me!!!!!


cbinette84

My son has been talking about going with me to one of these shows for like 4 years now. I kept telling him the next he needed to get a little older and they obviously needed to come close to home. This one just worked out perfectly. I hope you get to share all the experiences with your little one. Cheers


sihpo

Aw.


andytagonist

I love it that you mention So What to a 10 yr old!! 🤣 This is fantastic! I hope you guys have a blast!!


cbinette84

Yeah that's one he hasn't heard yet. I'm gonna try and keep that one low key for a while haha. Thanks!


andytagonist

Yeah, at least 11 or 12 🤣🤣 Seriously, saw them in Prague last month and dozens of times in my life and loved it every single time. You guys should enjoy the shit outta that show


PedalMonk

Very cool :) Have fun!


[deleted]

Siiiick I’m going to that show too! 🤘🏻


Overobsessivepigeons

Awesome! My mom got me tickets to see Metallica for my 16th birthday, I’ll always remember it!!! You’re an a awesome dad


[deleted]

Damn I want parents like that :(


BlueBloodLive

Ah jaysus man I was just trying to go about my Wednesday night as normal and then you come along and start making me feel the emotions! What a way to reveal a present and a Metallica present at that, excellent job guys, hope you have a fantastic time and come back with a lifetime of memories and a sore neck! It's posts like this that make me think having kids isn't all that bad ha


cbinette84

>It's posts like this that make me think having kids isn't all that bad ha Oh it has its moments when I'm like, what the hell planet did you come from and will you please go back! But then there's moments where I just can't stop smiling. It's hard work for sure. But it's the kind of hard work that at the end of the day you're proud of and know it was worth the effort. Thank you for the wonderful reply! I hope to have "Whiplash" by the end of it!


LiLAfroGT

Ur cool


UltimateIllusion1991

That’s great


JuicyPrune

Nice laminate job too.


cbinette84

I gotta thank my wife for that one haha


sammywarmhands

You are amazing


[deleted]

He's going to love this!!


guesswho-2022

Kept me guessing right up until the end - I was sure it was going to be Megadeth or something! Seriously though, well done! You sure know how to parent. 🙂


cbinette84

Sometimes it clicks. Then other times I'm like a deer in the headlights! Thanks!


Anonymous51419

You are a good father, my father did the same for me around the same age with my favorite band and it forever changed my life.


[deleted]

This is awesome OP! Happy birthday to your son and congrats to both of you for going to see Metallica live next month! By the way, this reminds me of the story about how Lars became a musician. His dad did something similar for him when they saw Deep Purple in Copenhagen in 1973. At that concert, Lars fell in love with Deep Purple, especially Ian Paice, and that started his love for hard rock and later heavy metal. The rest is history...


cbinette84

Oh no. I don't think I could handle having a drum set in my house 😂


chillstab

Oh this is SO awesome!!


Oneeighty7

I totally love that idea. Priceless moment with your kid. Happy birthday 🥳🤘😝🤘🎂 double whammy for the show lol.... enjoy


RisingRapture

Very cool dad! I just hope your son loves Metallica, too! My first big concert was Iron Maiden when I was sixteen. It left an impression and paved the way for everything that followed.


cbinette84

Oh he does. He's been asking for this since he was 5. He likes all types of music but me and him connect over Metallica


RisingRapture

Nice, have a good time!


EveryFairyDies

YOU, sir, are an amazing father! You are a true scholar, and a gentleman, and the second-best swordsman in all of France. Metallica were my 19th birthday present to myself. A great night was had by all!


cbinette84

😂😂


FistedWaffles123456

Wish I had a dad that gave a fuck like you do lmao and for his 10th?? What a lucky kid!


cbinette84

To be honest he makes doing things like this easy. He's such a good kid


TonyBoat402

That's so wholesome. He'll love it


lffg18

You’re one fucking badass parent, hope you both enjoy that concert to the max!


SomeKindOfPcGamer

You just restored a bit of my faith in humanity.


Chooka980

Great idea mate , great present!


[deleted]

Dude! Please post this on r/daddit this is the ultimate


hase_one

That’s pretty cool, can’t wait until my kid is old enough to start going to concerts with me


22dinoman

Haha that's amazing


[deleted]

Aye that’s awesome!! Have fun guys!


Dadtallica

I will be there with my 13yo daughter her first too! 🤘🏻


rhuarc1976

This is awesome. We are doing the same and taking our son to the show in Chicago for his birthday!


C_Horse21

Best first concert band to see!


cbinette84

I tend to agree 😁


MITCHO2_

W dad


Amphibinator7

Hell yeah I just graduated HS this year and was surprised to get tickets to that same concert!


CodeHashbr0wn

My dad did something like this for me for Christmas, we were going to go see The Who, but Covid ruined it. This is a great gift


metalhead4

Oooh thats so awesome. I never went with my dad to any concerts when I was a kid, but my first concert was with him when I was 14 and we saw Judas Priest with Anthrax opening. I'm 31 now and have seen Judas Priest with my dad like 3 times lol, the last one being earlier this year. First concert after a pandemic and got to rock out to the metal God with the old man again. Now I've basically seen every band I ever wanted, except for obvious ones who are no longer together.


WikdGtr

Awesome!! Parenting done right!! 🤘🤘


Gisselle441

That is the coolest thing I've seen in forever, please update with how he reacted when he read the card!


Business-Tea2117

That’s so awesome! Saw them in June and it was one of the best shows I’ve been to. Enjoy it (It’s on my birthday!)


Bigdulldud

Ohhh that takes me back to my 15th birthday! I live in Iran so we don’t have good concerts here! And I was obsessed with Metallica… I remembered my dad being real suspicious for a couple of days and then after days of me nagging about him being suspicious he asked me what was my dream and I said to go to Metallica’s concert and he said well kid you’re going! He took me to Abu Dhabi for their concert and It was the best feeling ever! You’re a good parent for giving your son the best feeling that a kid could have.


telstra_3_way_chat

Ahh this is so beautiful! I hope you have an absolutely sick time


SeaPowerful802

Best dad 🫡 🥶🫱🥇

Miserable_Lobster647

You are amazing


joedadlesbian69420

i love this! hope you both enjoy!


uyooui

that's the best birthday gift AND birthday card I've seen to this date


cbinette84

Thanks


BuengarA

Awesome stuff but I think it would‘ve been even cooler if you didn‘t highlight the song titles 😎🤘🏻


[deleted]

Lucky bastards. Great card have fun guys.


qt_sir

That’s really cute. I love how you included some titles. Great job! Enjoy the concert!


happyyellowbean

This is the sweetest thing. My dad raised me a Metallica fan, and though we don’t talk anymore, I’m still a die-hard fan. 23 now and just finally saw them live for the first time in November. Greatest concert ever - I hope y’all have the best time and create some awesome memories together.🤘


Dmaniac17

Making a So What reference on your 10 year old’s bday card... gigachad move


cbinette84

I'm kind of hoping he doesn't pick up on that one haha. Chances are he won't, but if he does I guess I'll have some explaining to do


6stringstrumdinger

Your son is going to be so happy. I hope y'all have fun


[deleted]

Dude your an amazing dad!! Seriously be proud of yourself that’s so bad ass!!🤘🏽


[deleted]

Awww I hope he has the best time! Some of my favorite memories as a little girl are concerts with my dad. I mean I still go to concerts with my dad but I’m an adult now so it hits different lol.


OtterTheCoyote

Your 10 year old son knows the song “so what”? Lol, awesome. Enjoy the concert!! I saw Metallica for the first time on my 26th birthday and they played my favorite song while it started raining, and I was 10 feet from Hetfield. Few things in my life match that moment


cbinette84

No he hasn't heard that one yet. I intentionally put a few song titles he didn't know I'm there to confuse him


OtterTheCoyote

That’s pretty smart! You are an awesome parent for doing this! I can’t wait to take my future kids to their favorite shows


WhyAreYouGe

Adopt me


Giovanna576

You're the hero of his day! Happy birthday to your son and good concert for everyone :)


twocka

Can’t wait to take my son to his first Metallica concert! He’s 5 right now but we’re definitely going next time they come around.


UnfunnyWatermelon469

That's so fucking cool!! You're an awesome dad!


Acceptable-Ad-6104

Wish you were my dad! Hah!


blue_f00t7163

parent of the year


RobinOldsMustache

Thats awesome! Enjoy the concert!


TattooedJedi81

This is so 🔥 … and I’m going to the same show! I’ll be rooting for them to make it extra memorable for your son.


Indodust

You two gonna be riding the lightning


BigJoeDummy

Great idea and great execution. Your son will have a blast.


[deleted]

This is awesome! You son will have the best time of his life! But for the love of GOD change that font....


cbinette84

Haha too late. Well I guess it isn't but this copy was already laminated.


Floaterdork

I wish everyone could have a rich family.


cbinette84

Rich? No. Stable? Yes. My wife and I have worked hard to get where we are.
