I took my kids to see Night Ranger at Bigg's Army Air Field in the early 90's. Brad Gillis motioned my 7 year old son to hold his hand up and open. Then (I still to this day don't know how) flicked his guitar pick from 20 feet away right into my sons hand!! And right there and then, he created a new Night Ranger and Brad Gillis Super Fan!

Yes; they're a must-see LIVE show❣️❤️ I saw them twice, thus far. 👍 Purchased all of their LPs, as soon as they were released with my hard-earned Burger King $, as a teen, as you know. 😅 Hoping we can make amends, when there was never discord between us, in the first place, after all. ❤️🩹 My man, of 16 yrs., went to the other realm 🌌, from Covid, in Nov., 2021. I'd just received an all-clear, of stage-4 Ovarian Cancer, that May. (I continue to have annual N.E.D.s* * No-Evidence Disease.) 💪 Should've been gone by 2022, however, I've surpassed the 13% odds (likely, due to my decades of healthy nutritional habits, and olympian exercises, daily, since the late 1980s). Doc said it was simply "Bad Luck" that I got the Big C. Last attempted reconciling via that cute-reply tweet, of my mate & me at Todd Rundgren's show, while you were at a Queensrÿche concert. 🤟 Hope you gave your wife the lengthy, loving letter I'd sent to her, and our Grandmother's Swarovski crystal animals, which I mailed, too. 💝 (She had called me, therefore, I was overwhemed by such gratitude, that I penned the thank you, since I'd missed the call.) ✍️ Hope to meet-up, in 2025. 🥳
