Gehard Ritcher meets small town girl with too much on her mind

 

A Letter I Forgot to Send...

Dear Coldplay,


You are awesome and I love you!! Your new album is wonderful and I listen to it daily.
However…

Do you realize that you robbed me of a milestone experience that should have happened years ago but I was too busy having babies and getting education and generally being a contributing member to society and now I finally had the opportunity to go to my first real concert of a band I actually love but you decided that Toronto was far more important than Edmonton, Calgary and Winnipeg combined even though I would have been willing to pay at least three times as much as you were charging in the States to even get a brief glimpse of you from behind a pillar in the nose bleed section and drive up to sixteen hours to attend a concert in any of the three locations in western Canada none of which hold any interest for me other than an H & M or an Ikea????????!!!!!!!!!!!


Please send me airfare and free tickets to see you in Toronto. I promise I won’t stalk you.


Sincerely,

A woman who won’t get to see a real concert before she’s thirty
