Lucky Kid (tambourine & sitcks) at Denver Show!

Anyone out there have pics or video of the kid receiving the tambourine from Ed and the drum sticks from Matt at the end of the Denver show during Yellow Ledbetter? It happened at the stage-left side. That was my son (luckiest kid I know!) but my phone was dead so I have no hard evidence to place in his shadow box with his EPIC grab.
ANY help would be greatly appreciated. (I also need advice on how to peel a 9-year old off of the ceiling).....

    Sweet, congrats to your son. Get him to buy you a lottery ticket.

    Funny you should say that. That was my request to him as we were floating away from the show on Cloud 9.

    I hope you thanked that lady next to you that caught the drumstick. Good for her to give it to your son after he already got a tambourine. We were directly opposite of you by Mike. I didn't take vid at that time or I'd help you out

    I was a couple of rows behind you and saw Matt throw the drumsticks to your son. I THOUGHT I saw that the lady next to you guys basically grab a tambourine out of his hands, so I'm glad to hear that he ended up with both!

    Unfortunately, I don't have any video. Sounds like your son had a night he'll never forget!

    Coolest part about the sticks was that the first set was tossed to him, we missed, the lady behind gave him one anyway.....
    Matt saw what happened, grabbed another nicely beaten pair, gave them to an equipment manager and asked that they be delivered directly to him. Everyone was a winner since he was able to hand the stick right back to her, thank god! Instant Karma.....!

    I'd be happy enough having had that experience - screw hard physical evidence!

    It's in your brains and thus with you always :)
