    Hi everyone, not a big poster on here, but today I lost my father to the long battle he had with Leukemia. He was in remission for 4 years, but relapsed a few weeks ago and just couldn't fight anymore. PJ has helped to get me through all of this and now I am devastated. He knew how much the band meant to me and the shows I went to. After much debate, I will go to two shows in Philly like planned because my mom says he definitely would say go. I miss you dad. You are my hero.

    Yes-"I miss you Dad. You are my hero"
    I lost my Dad it will be 20 years this coming April. He is forever with me- his moon like round face- his smiling green eyes (I see his eyes each day in the mirror) the memories of his optimistic generous spirit. This Randi you have to look forward too. The peace that comes with him forever being with you. And perhaps the knowledge that you will meet again. I imagine being in my fathers presence again- his English Leather and scratchy cheek on mine. And he will say "Tinker Bunger" welcome home and I will be home again.

    Randi, I thought of you Friday night during LIGHT YEARS. So much emotion! As the tears rolled down my face I remember just looking up thinking "can you see this now??" I know they were smiling down as proud as ever. SUCH an intense/beautiful moment.

    Like everyone else, I am REALLY glad you made it to these historic shows! Really the greatest therapy on earth!

    i had a few moments where i cried like a baby those few nights. Light years was one of them. Lost it during Off He Goes and Smile too. Just being in that building felt kinda empty to me cause it was the definite end of my childhood and with my dad gone so recently, it all just got to me. I know its just a building and I'm in my mid thirties now, but i grew up there. I'll always remember those shows though. Really glad I went and really glad i met some of the other Ten clubbers because I did go.
