Oh you guys are making me choke up! This is all so true, and SOOO hard to explain to people who don't get it. I have felt like they were 'mine' forever. The first time I saw one of them in person-- I was about 14, at Christine's 1984 solo show-- I took a huge gulp of air and swallowed it just to keep some of the air Chris had breathed inside me LOL. When I saw Lindsey's solo show in '93, I cried most of the way through it and almost all the way home. Marty took a funny picture of me in the parking lot after the show, all weepy.
I never thought I'd see all 5 of them together. So when I saw the Dance shows, forget it, I was crying the minute they were all on that stage in front of me, and several times throughout.
I am so jealous of people that get to trail after them and see several shows! $ and childcare is an issue for us, so we can't do stuff like that, much as I'd love to. If they toured again, we'd try our damndest to get there!! There is no other band like this band. Granted, it's lost a bit without Chris there...but still, I adore them all, no matter where in the world they are and what they're doing. I wish for their good health and happiness as much as I wish it for my own family, and that is sort of odd, but by now I am used to it!
