I dont know if the guys ever see this stuff - if anyone ever makes them aware of these types of posts, but hey - gotta give it a shot right? 
 As the Great One once said "you miss 100% of the shots you dont take"


We live in NY but we are heading to MINNY for both shows.   
My wifes birthday is 9/2 and would be an amazing gift if somehow someway you guys see this and can dedicate Just Breathe to her.  

She / we have been through a lot in the last 7 years.  She was in a terrible car accident, that was not her fault, which left her with long term nerve damage and TBI. She is an amazing woman and has been an absolute trooper through all of this.  Doing everything she could to not let it come in the way of our family. 
 I tell her all the time if roles were reversed, she would have divorced me by now because I know I would be miserable all the time but somhow she finds the ability and strength to push through.   EV said in Philly I think it was that some shit you cant go around it, cant go over it, cant go under it, just have to push through it.  Thats what she has done for sure.  It has been and continues to be a very LONG ROAD.   Jen has a tattoo on her foot "Just Breathe"  she said it is a good reminder when things get tough.
I give her all the credit in the world for how she has handled all she has faced. 

Now more recently we in the matter of 2 weeks we lost my brother to year plus battle with cancer (#FUCKCANCER)- and her brother was in an awful car accident that was not his fault and has been left with many broken bones, surgeries, weeks in the hosptial etc . 
This all happened with in 2 weeks of when we were supposed to take our dream vacation to Hawaii in May for our 25th anniversary - the dream vacation that we had to cancel due to everything going on with our brothers at the time.  Hopefully we will get to reschedule at some point, but in the meantime man o man are we are looking forward to these two concerts so much!!   

If you took the time to read this - give it a quick reply so it doesnt fall off the first page  -
                                 Maybe if it gets some attention and maybe it will help increase the odds of this crazy longshot coming in!

Even if you guys never see this, at least I "took my shot" 

cheers to all

    Ha. She just doesn’t like being Center of attention.   This thread isn’t getting any attention so it is what it is.  Fingers crossed.

    I'll second this to play Just Breathe for his wife and mine.

    She lost her best friend since middle school (30+years) to a heart attack last year as they (we) were preparing for our 25th anniversary vow renewals. A somewhat edited version of the song was what she chose as her vows.

    Strength in numbers and not trying to hijack the thread but add more reasons to play it.

    They played this at Wrigley back in 2018 and I captured this video of the song. Maybe you can enjoy this until you hopefully get to hear it live on Saturday!
