Full Circle

When Ben and I were younger, there was a Saturday when we got up early and stood in lines to get tickets to see U2. Then we saw them and it was amazing. This only fueled my love of live shows and set the bar high for the level of production and musicianship that I want to see on a stage. In the years since then I have been to many shows with my brother and I’ve also watched him develop into a performer and musician himself. The whole process had done nothing but make me more and more proud of him and the skills that he is refining. 

That all came full circle on Saturday when I got to stand on the field of Mile High Stadium (some call is Invesco) and watch Ben play on U2’s stage. I know they were nervous but they worked hard and the brought their all and it was awesome. And if that weren’t enough we then got to watch U2 do their 360 tour show. And again I was blown away. Those 4 guys know what it means to capture a crowd (of 70,000+) and take them on a journey for 2.5 hours. 

Twas a surreal night, still taking it all in. But I do know that I’m prouder than ever of my concert going partner and brother.
