This Is A Great Dad


There is a rock group in the Netherlands named Within Temptation. This week they are embarking on their very first South American tour. All the dates are either sold out or close to sold out. The band was started in 1996. Two of the founding members are a couple who have a two year old daughter. The father is the lead guitarist and the mother is the lead singer.

They have a babysitter is usually watches their daughter for them when they go on tour. This time, the babysitter was not available, and their daughter is too young to go. Instead of just leaving the daughter with just anyone, the father decided to stay at home with the daughter and send the band off with a replacement guitarist.

Robert Westerholt, who is the father said that it was an easy decision and that his daughter will always come before anything else. In an official statement, the band says, "Unfortunately, we have to inform you that Robert won't be able to go on the South American tour. "The reason is that we haven't been able to find a proper babysitter for the duration of the tour and that we are also unable to take Luna with us on this tour. "However, the rest of the band will make sure you won't miss a thing, 'cause they will make sure this first South American tour will be a memorable one!"

Just makes 50 Cent look like even more of an ass doesn't it? I wonder if he even knows all his kids names or their birthdays.
