    I wonder how the story would have gone if you said your favorite band was Abba,

    This is great - very generous of you to share and awesome story - this is the stuff that makes this forum/community great!  Now back to complaining about merch, setlists, drummers and fan club tickets! lol

    Amazing! Love hearing stories like this. It’s little things like this that make the band truly special and set them apart from other bands IMO. Thanks for sharing!

    I mean, what are the odds?  that's just wild.  what a story you have.  what's even more amazing is that it took you this long to share it!  one of the mods needs to get you back in touch w Eddie and the band.  Good for you and that's just absolutely incredible.
