After reading all of these comments, I don't know how you will decide among these great and deserving fans. Here's my story. In 2006 my husband left to work in Baghdad for the Army. During this time I discovered TAB, the honesty of the music really helped me through this difficult time. Fast forward to to 2 years later when my husband came home, we drove 7 hours to our first show just a month after he was home. When we talked to Scott before the show, he asked if Seth could play Ballad of Love & Hate that night. When the song was played my husband said it helped wash away some of the feelings left from his time overseas. He and I have traveled to 12 concerts together now. Just today my husband accepted a job for DOD in Afghanistan and will leave next Friday. We are numb from the short time left to spend together as a family. This show would give us a quick weekend away before he heads back overseas.

Best of luck to everyone and have fun at Merlesfest!!!!
