This tour is very special to me because its the first Mac tour I was able to participate in extensively. I was 9 when the Tusk tour came to Minneapolis on May 9&10 1980 and I couldnt go. I didnt see the Mirage tour also because I was to young and they canceled their TITN show here and the BTM tour show was sold out before I could get tickets. I did get to go to 5 Dance tour shows but that was just a taste of what I really wanted to do. So when SYW came around I swore to myself I was going to go to as many shows as I could humanly afford, and due to nothing more than sheer determination, by the time the tour ended I had seen a total of 35 shows, 25 in 2003 and 10 in 2004. There were many times I wet without sleep driving straigt thru the night to get to the next city, but I ws seeing my band, and there was no were in te world I would've rather been. And the only thing that would've stopped me was if I was dead. Thankfully I made it but there were a few times when I asked myself "Do I really wanna be doing this" Anyway here's the list of shows i saw over the 2 year adventure.
