Woodburn: Dadvice for Father's Day
Father's Day cards will be opened two days hence, so it seems apropos to share a Hallmark-worthy thought from Mark Twain who famously observed: 'When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be twenty-one, I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven years.' More recently, classical pianist Charles Wadworth, who died two weeks ago at age 96, once expanded on Twain's quip: 'By the time a man realizes that maybe his father was right, he usually has a son who thinks he's wrong.' Or daughter. Barry Kibrick, an Emmy-winning TV host on PBS, once insightfully told me of raising his two sons: 'I never worried about over-praising them and building up their self-esteem too much because there are plenty of people in the world who will try to tear them down.' Author Jan Hutchins had a similarly wise dad, sharing: 'When I was a kid, my father told me every day, 'You're the most wonderful boy in the world, and you can do anything you want to.' ' Clarence Budington Kelland, a 20th-century novelist who once described himself as 'the best second-rate writer in America,' made a first-rate compliment about his own father: 'He didn't tell me how to live; he lived, and let me watch him do it.' Best-selling essayist Robert Fulghum put it this way: 'Don't worry that your children never listen to you; worry that they are always watching you.' American inventor Charles Kettering likewise advised, 'Every father should remember: one day his son will follow his example, not his advice.' With attribution unknown comes this pearl: 'One night a father overheard his son pray: 'Dear God, Make me the kind of man my Daddy is.' Later that night, the father prayed, 'Dear God, Make me the kind of man my son wants me to be.' ' The rock band Yellowcard offers this lovely lyric about the power of a dad as a role model: 'Father I will always be / that same boy who stood by the sea / and watched you tower over me / now I'm older I wanna be the same as you.' Hall of Fame baseball player Harmon Killebrew apparently had a Hall-of-Fame Dad, the son recalling: 'My father used to play with my brother and me in the yard. Mother would come out and say, 'You're tearing up the grass.' Dad would reply, 'We're not raising grass — we're raising boys.' ' A great attitude for Girl Dads as well, naturally. Speaking of little girls, John Mayer strikes the perfect chord with these lyrics: 'Fathers, be good to your daughters. You are the god and the weight of her world.' Getting further to the heart of the matter, John Wooden, who believed 'love' is the most important word in the English language, opined: 'The most important thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother.' From another basketball coach, the late Jim Valvano: 'My father gave me the greatest gift anyone could give another person — he believed in me.' Wayne Bryan, father of doubles legends Mike and Bob who are even better people than they are tennis players, advises parents: 'Shout your praise to the rooftops and if you must criticize, drop it like a dandelion. On second thought, don't criticize at all.' In closing, this home-run thought from Hall of Fame singles hitter Wade Boggs: 'Anyone can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a dad.'

A Day To Remember tour schedule 2025 A complete calendar including all tour dates, venues and links to buy tickets can be found below. Vans Warped Tour On top of the co-headlining jaunt, both ADTR and Yellowcard will take part in the recently-resurrected Vans Warped Tour. If you want to be there, here's where the action is going down at the three-part festival these next few months. A Day To Remember set list Ahead of the North American tour, A Day To Remember has been performing all over the UK and Europe. Based on our findings at Set List FM, here's what they performed at a recent gig in Paris. 01.) 'The Downfall of Us All' 02.) 'I'm Made of Wax, Larry, What Are You Made Of?' 03.) '2nd Sucks' 04.) 'Right Back at It Again' 05.) 'Bad Blood' 06.) 'Paranoia' 07.) 'To the Death' 08.) 'Rescue Me' (Marshmello cover) 09.) 'Have Faith in Me' 10.) 'All My Friends' 11.) 'Since U Been Gone' (Kelly Clarkson cover) 12.) 'You Be Tails, I'll Be Sonic' 13.) 'Mr. Highway's Thinking About the End' 14.) 'Resentment' 15.) 'Miracle' 16.) 'Mindreader' 17.) 'LeBron' 18.) 'All I Want' 19.) 'Sometimes You're the Hammer, Sometimes You're the Nail' Encore 20.) 'If It Means a Lot to You' 21.) 'Flowers' 22.)

'Ocean Avenue' A Day To Remember new music Just a few months ahead of the tour announcement, A Day To Remember unveiled their eighth studio album 'Big Ole Album Vol. 1.' As always, the group oscillates between melodic pop, angsty punk and full-on metal, which creates a sense of whiplash while listening. There's little room to breathe but that's not necessary when a record is as much of a shot of adrenaline as 'Big Ole Album Vol. 1' is. Highlights here include the fist-pumping rocker 'Feedback,' melodic country-esque ode to buddies 'All My Friends' and invigorating 'LeBron.' All that being said, others may have a totally different interpretation of the record depending on taste. Our favorites here lean punk- some listeners may prefer the heavy metal. ADTR really caters to totally different audiences and that's part of what makes them so special. Want to give the album a spin? Click here to rock out to 'Big Ole Album Vol. 1.' Yellowcard new music Ahead of the release of 'Better Days,' Yellowcard has dropped a pair of hard-charging singles. The title track 'Better Days' kicks things off with a bit of feedback before launching into the group's anthemic sound — soaring vocals and rockin' guitar — and hit overdrive. It's a delight. Up next, 'honestly i' is a bit more unconventional with its shaky accordian-like sound off the top. Speedy percussions steady the operation and by a minute in, the song returns to classic Yellowcard territory. To hear for yourself, you can find both tracks here. 'Maximum Fun Tour' special guests In the off chance you need to brush up on the opening acts' respective sounds, here's each artist's most-streamed song on Spotify. State Champs: 'Secrets' The Wonder Years: 'Came Out Swinging' Boundaries: 'Easily Erased' Dinosaur Pile-Up: 'Back Foot' Huge acts on tour in 2025 Need more genre-bending punk and metal in your life?
