i decided that due to my son michael taking his own life earlier this year, i couldnt face going to twicks without him.But having giving it some thought ..ive decided to go the second twicks show.its not going to be easy, but he would want me there..i first took mike to see them on the voodoo lounge tour...and his been a fan ever since...lol more a fan than me. he lived and breathed the stones.We last went to see them on the licks tour at twicks, thats why i find it hard to go back.My four daughters have told me to go and enjoy myself.So i will wear his stones t shirt,and rock with the stones.It will be a bitter sweet day.
Sounds like you went through a tough time, Terry. I don't know what to say except for wishing you all the strength you need. Sure hope that in spite of all the sadness you had this year, you will have a great time at Twickenham. Mixed Emotions.
This is hard work, I know, cause I lost my brother earlier this year. Although he was more for The Beatles, we both love both bands, and we've attended both McCartney and Stones together. I've seen three shows so far, and two to come, and just right in the middle of some great song - his memory turns up in my head. Strange and very very sad, but I know he would have been pissed to see me staying home. He would have told me to get out there and get on with my life and do what I love the most. But sure, it's depressing and sad, but all in all it's better than staying home... Mixed emotions is the best way to put it.
hey terry....I remember reading your post months ago....I marveled then as I am now at your courage....strength can be gained from sadness and I see you are building muscles as we speak.....my humble hat is tipped in your general direction, my friend
