I like that even though the date itself was sort of a blah, there weren't any huge red flags telling you this guys is a no-go.

I am sort of nerdy, and would be a jazz musician if I didn't have kids, so I get the conversation- but I also probably wouldn't want to endure that on a first date. I also think bad boy musicians aren't the way to go, and if you find one who reformed himself and has no leftover issues from it, have at it!

I know for me, I'll take the boring-ish guy over the wild child any day of the week- but then again, I'm into nerds and we all have our preferences.

Good luck, and keep us posted- I'm sure he'll call!

Moody, hoping her own children become nerdy musicians

It sounds like it would be better if you got to listen to music together instead of talk about it. I wonder if there is any common ground you would have for discussion? How do you feel about the drive? Good to see you are getting out there!

Good for you keeping an open mind. I feel like without a big negative gut feeling, people are worth meeting twice. The first night, everyone is nervous and it can be tough to get the conversation going.

Let us know how it goes from here.

Doesn't sound too bad. Good for you for not just writing him off. I probably would have if I had been bored. Hopefully the next date will be a little more fun.

Good luck

It wasn't a bad first meet at all.
