Mom advices against going with my boyfriend when he is with his sister
Ok, so my mom says that my boyfriend and I are a two people relationship. Which is true. But my boyfriend's sister 15s are coming up and she's going to a LMFAO concert and I would like to go. So that would be the three of us plus one more person, a friend of hers. My mom has made it clear in the past that she advices against me going with my boyfriend and his sister. Should I pass up going?

I don't understand your mother's reasoning at all.
Yes, you are two people in a relationship. But you are two people in a relationship who have OTHER relationships, like friends and family.
Can you spend too much time with your partner's family? Sure. You absolutely can damage your relationship with your boyfriend by being too involved in his family life - but you can't pretend they don't exist either.
If you are invited and want to go, just go. It's almost more rude and damaging to say no to such an invite, then it is to tag along with family.

Hey there, Yes absolutely of course you should go! It sounds luke it will be a lot of fun and an excellent chance to get to know his sister more. I really see know problem. He obviously cares for you a lot and wants you involved with his fanily. If you decline he might get the impression you are not interested in getting to know his family. Being a two person relationship doesnt mean you should cut yourselves off to all people and social situations and events. It just means that some matters should be kept private between you two:) Good luck and much<3 Jess 18/f

If you were invited to go with them then go! It's a good way to bond with his sister if he is important to you. And if he is encouraging you to join them then chances are he wants you to get to know his family :)
You're mom is right that you are two people in a relationship. Sometimes there are things you don't need to be part of with him. But in this case, if the invitation has been offered, then don't pass it up!
