You can tell him what time you'll be back, who's going etc. This way he'll be more likely to say yes. If you Really don't want to ask you can tell your friends you have already promised to do something with your, dad, sister, brother, other friend, cousin (whoever). You can tell them that you have to go somewhere (if they don't live close enough to you to know you're lying) but I really don't know if lying is the option. I would just try to talk to your dad or just tell your friends you can't go. Don't even explain why. If they ask just say you have to do stuff. I would deffinitely ask your dad though because hey, the worst he could say is no. I really hope this helped and good luck! =)

I'm assuming you do have curfew, so make sure you make it back by that time. If he asks, you could reassure him that you'll be with a group of people, no drinking, etc..
If he still isn't convinced, don't worry about what excuses you'll use; it'll only make you nervous. The best thing is to be honest, but if you really don't want to, you can tell your friends that you really have to go somewhere else with your parents or that you have to study or something..
Hope you end up going to the concert! [ ciao77's advice column | Ask ciao77 A Question ]
