[ Closed ] Borderline Ticket (Page 2 of 3)

Thank you all for the kind words. As of this morning the ticket is on the first leg of it's journey across the pond.

@Pete...Thanks for jumping in immediately and having your antennas up for your ticketless friend. Well played!

@RickB Thank you so much for offering to take on the responsibility of giving the ticket wings to get to it's new owner. Made it so much easier and less worrisome for me.

And @Kath...the tone of your post gave me shivers. London is very dear to me as well. I have been many times, for many reasons...even fell crazy, mad in love there once. So yes, this particular Joe gig was something I was over the top excited about...London...the small venue...oh dear, I think I'm getting teary..
Anyway, Kath, You are exactly the person I wished to have this ticket to take my place at Borderline. You are the person I was thinking of when I wrote here yesterday morning. Please enjoy (and rock out) for me!

Yesterday morning I could not have imagined that there was much about not being able to go other than that it just plain sucked. Today I can honestly say I feel happy and content about all of it! As I told Rickb in our emailing----

The Borderline gig will be...even for me, not being able to attend...a more special event, made possible by something that money could have never bought. You guys are something else!

Yes, Way2optimistic, what a wonderful thing to do and I know that it must be bittersweet~ I tried to do the same thing for Joe's Hawaii gig last fall.  We had the tickets for months and then a couple of weeks before the show we couldn't go, but we had no takers and now the tickets are just sitting there in my drawer.  It would have been so much better for them to have been a blessing to someone~  Thank you so much for being such a generous soul~~

Should I put on my brown shorts and pants for the flight?
Will a police escort be waiting to guard me and the precious cargo?
Very happy to be part of this!!!

Good things happen to good people. I'm sure Nancy is in line for some Karmic payback.

Way2go W2o!!!  Love this place every day new surprises! I received an email from a friend the day after he saw Joe for the 1st time at Rupp Arena in May it was just one word  "magical" I believe the magic goes beyond the stage. I tell my friends about stories like this and they are amazed. All you have to do is randomly look around different sections here and you can run across acts of kindness from just a small gesture to a grand one like this. And its not just caring & generosity amongst fans there's plenty of stories from Joe and J & R too. It's hard to explain the full depth of it to your friends you just have to be here to experience it  

Thank you W2o for the wonderful surprise and he huge smile on my face! And Kath I look forward to meeting you in London! Pete & Rick you guys rock

Thanks for pointing out this thread Rick. I know YOU have a way of doing kind things for people too. I LOVE JOE FANS!!!! There really is a magic here. I've seen it many times. Nancy, what a kind thing to do and massive good Karma will come your way! Cathy

this is one of the most amazing pieces of kindness to fall upon these pages, cos this is no ordinary ticket .. Joe's Golden Ticket   with no trip to a chocolate factory in sight ,, but the delicious setting of The Borderline  all right not as glamourous but better music for sure ... and no ooooma loooompas in sight ..... ok there is a few ..... kath you have been made speechless    get outta here LOL    that i gotta see   

.............. Michael

I have said this many, many time: this forum, and its members, never cease to amaze me. Well done!

And I am sure we will raise a toast to you tomorrow in the wee venue.
