    Lucky you! The band hates all of us in the Mountain time zone.

    If 1000 miles equaled "across the streeet," then Ed's playing "across the street" from my house too!

    Seriously that is pretty cool for you. Not many can say that.

    I live only a few miles away too! I won one of the Ten Club Contests, and hosted a screening of the Immagine In Cornice DVD @ Northern Lights in Clifton Park!! It was awesome, we had a brand new top of the line Sony Projector that we shot onto an 16 foot x 9 foot screen, and a rockin audio system!!!! I charged admission and raffled of prizes and donated all of the money to The Crohns Disease Foundation!!! A good time was had by all those who attended!! Anyways, I'm pysched he will be here in Albany. P.S.- My daughter and I were on stage with him in Montreal last year!! He sang Happy Birthday to her with the crowd, as well as dedicating Forever Young to her, while we sat a few feet away from him on stage!!! that was amazing!!!!

    No i realize this but for some reason I cant get passed step 3 because my card my account must not have updated to having enough money. So I am currently not even eligible for a shot at these tickets and im not happy
