I've been trying to word this correctly for a couple of days before posting it.To Glenn,
I got to thank you Friday afternoon at the steps of the entrance that leads up to the lobby/bar area.I told you this was my second Progpower and introduced you to my wife who was at her first.It was brief but it started a series of events that became something I will never forget.I started bragging about you to her as we went on to find seats and she became very interested in the festival as a whole.I've been married to her for 12 years and NEVER have been able to get her to go to a metal concert with me.I talked her into this one because there were bands with female vocalists.By the time Friday night ended she was a fan of Leaves Eyes,Seventh Wonder,and Kamelot.
We spent Saturday talking about those bands,other bands and everything I could think of that was metal.Saturday's fest arrived and by the end of Delain my shy wife was clapping her hands and standing and cheering and Whooing!!! for them like I was.She even got into a couple of Hammerfall songs!!! I can't explain how much this means to me.She has done nothing but pester me every day since the fest to let her listen to more metal!!! I'm doing everything I can to satisfy her craving for this genre.In my wildest dreams I never thought this would happen.It's because of you Glenn,cause without this fest it wouldn't have happened.We are closer than ever before because of this.Metal has always meant soo much to me and to now have my wife involved in my enthusiasm is perfect.
To Jen,
Without you Glenn would only be half as great as he is
I've learned the hard way without a great woman beside him,a man is really not a man.We didn't get to meet you,but when I read what Glenn wrote about you I'm sure you are totally awesome!!!!

She's liked most of what I've thrown at her over the years, and has enjoyed the last two PPUSAs, other than how exhausted we get after 2-4 days of metal madness.
