I was at the show tonight and got a call that my father is being rushed into emergency surgery with an aorta tear and that it doesn't look good. I went to the show last night. My mother died of a blood clot in her lungs 4 years ago when I was 17. I live in Nashville, so I have to drive 7 and half hours back home right now. All i ask is please pray for my father and my family.

    Good vibes and prayers sending your way.

    There's nothing worse then hearing the words ''emergency surgery''. :(

    Drive safe

    Best wishes to you and your family and please drive safely. Get there in one piece.

    Also, remember that the Kankakee area is a speed trap.
