    i hope that'll be me and mr. dream in 30+ years. well, dunno if i want to end up in florida tho. ;)
    seriously, music keeps you YOUNG...adds such joy to life....and is an amazing bond to share as a couple. great story!

    and well done you for helping em out get tix to night 2! :thumbup:

    i didn't have the pleasure of seeing em last night - i was more central/stone's side with a friend's 10c seats....and for MSG more than likely be no where near them since i will be back to earth and in my own, normal 10c seats. :lol:
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...

    Yeah I was four seats away from that, could have had a chance but that would have involved me running over a couple and someone who was taller than me. Had no interest in being "that guy"
