Sorry for your loss, Danalphabet. As parents, that's our greatest fear. I can't imagine going through that. You'll be in my thoughts, especially on show night. I hope you get to hear Long Road, man.

Haven't posted in a while. Logged in specifically to bump this up for you. Parenthood changes people, as a father of 2 young ones I can't imagine what you must feel. I (literally) got teary eyed just reading your brief post.
Please, if anybody reads this that may be able to influence the bands set list even in the slightest, make this happen.
I am so horribly sad about your loss Dan. I life cut so short is such a tragedy. I can only imagine the hole this has left in your life. But it's warming to see how you're dealing with it though, and keeping Joey's memory alive and strong, and hope so much that they play Long Road for you and Joey. I think it will happen for sure. :x

If anyone sees this in time, please set your DVR to record the half-hour show "Highly Questionable" today at 1 p.m. PT on ESPN2. They are going to dedicate a portion late in the show to my son, Joey. It is usually around the 19 or 20-minute mark. DIRECTV channel is 209. Thank you all for your continued support.
Being a Father of 3 I cannot imagine how this must be for you.So sorry for your loss. Best wishes and thoughts from here to you and your closest. Hope you get Long Road...
I hope they play it for you, I've no doubt they will if they see this. I can't even imagine the pain of losing a child, but I know having lost loved ones, that music can be a real comfort, and it doesn't get much better than Long Road. I wonder if Ed knew what a special song it was when he first wrote it?

Thank you all for your kind words and support. Hope you don't mind if I ocassionally share a photo of my son, Joey. This was taken at the Cheap Trick/Pat Benatar concert last June in Santa Barbara, California. Love him with all of my heart and miss him more each day.
