"Because of band, I have memories and friends that will last a lifetime. may never be as close to as many people as I was then, and when I am older, and I see the band that was once my own, I will tap my foot in time with the music and wish that I could be a part of that CRAZY organization just one more time. And, maybe, when the show is over, I will clap just a little louder and a little longer than any other, because I know exactly what it is to ache... to sweat... to laugh. to give.. to cry... to smile... to love."
