I don't know if these post work but I see them all the time so I might as well try.  My dad died after a long illness just short of his 80th birthday and it hit me harder than I thought even though I was prepared for it. His death has made me realize that I had to start living my life and that's why I'm making the trip all the way from the east coast. He was teacher for 33 years. He loved baseball and football. He loved the Buffalo Bills. He enjoyed the Beatles, Beach Boys, Neil Diamond and Tom Jones. He was a good man and a great father and husband. I'd really appreciate if you guys could pull this off. Maybe night 2 since you guys doing the rare back to back nights and this song would be easier on the voice  :). Thanks for all the music over the years and good luck on the rest of the tour.  Gary
