This whole story began a couple of months ago, and, quite honestly, I still can't believe what happened. My son Bruce is a big fan of Metal Priests, which is also one of my favorite bands. Last time they played here, Bruce was still too young, so I didn't take him to the concert, but I promised I was going to take him with me the next time they came around. Bruce was the one who found out about the concert and he called me straight away. I was going into a meeting when he called, and told him I would get the tickets later on, but then one thing led to another and, long story short, when I went online to buy the tickets, they were sold out. I was heartbroken.
The worst part was telling Bruce. His 10th birthday was the day before the concert, and he said that going to the show would have been the best birthday present he could ever get. I wanted to die there and then. There's nothing worse than seeing the look of disappointment in your child's eyes and not being able to do anything about it. I spent the next few weeks trying to get tickets to the show somehow. Some people always give up and sell their tickets. It was already the week of the concert and I had nothing, but I was hoping for a lucky break, and that was when the most incredible thing happened: I received a call from Metal Priests' manager saying the band would like to meet me. I was so disoriented that it took me a few seconds before I could say anything. I asked if I could take my son with me and they said I couldn't, which was a bit weird. I was excited to meet the band and a little annoyed by their refusal, but decided to go anyway. If I could at least get the band's autographs, Bruce would be thrilled. They sent a car to pick me up after work and drive me to the hotel.
When I got there, the manager introduced me to the band and they were super nice. I was simply thrilled to meet my rock and roll idols, but I was also curious, so I asked why they wanted to see me and why they said I couldn't take my son there. It was then that my head exploded. Bob Ballford, the lead singer, said they wanted to come and play some songs at my house on Bruce's birthday party, which was going to be on the Saturday before the concert. I was really puzzled, I mean... how could they know? Then it all came together. After I told Bruce we weren't going to the concert, he asked me if he could leave a message to the band. I said yes and completely forgot about it. He recorded the sweetest video explaining his whole story: how he loved the band and we couldn't get the tickets.
At the end of the video, he said that if the band was going to be in town for the concert, he'd like to invite them to his birthday party the night before.
