Hey y'all,
I don't post on here often but I just wanted to share a cool thing about last night in Hampton. My grandmother attended the show with me and she is 91 years old! Huge thanks to the band for putting on such a great concert as always... I didn't have the foresight to bring a poster with me, but I thought it would be neat for the band to know she was there and enjoyed the concert very much. Her name is Helen and she is still walking the long road!

Thanks again for a great night. See you guys in NYC!

Love,
-JW

    Did Ed throw her a tambourine or does that only work with small children?

    That is amazing and props for taking your grandmother. I hope you two had a blast.

    Nice...Does she know any songs? Was she drinking? Did she appreciate any weed smoke? I'm sure you saw people pointing her out all show. She must be beat today. Good for her and you.

    Come Back is one of her favorite songs! Has a lot of meaning when you're that age!
