Dear Jami and Zach,
Tomorrow night Mom and Dad are taking you to Washington DC for your very first rock concert… and it’s U2! The new album, Songs of Experience is so full of hope and both of you know every song by heart, how could I not take you?
To make sure that your first show is something that you can try and understand as much as you can I’ve printed out a program just for you. Dad is a crazy U2 nut fan and he doesn’t like knowing the set list ahead of time, but for you I’ve put crazy on hold and given you a map of the night so you can follow along. Even places where you might want to take potty breaks.
It’s so important to be out in the world with your eyes wide open. Looking for truth. U2 is a rare band. One of a kind. They all love Jesus and they as asking us to follow them on a journey towards truth and making this world the best place it can be for all people.
I hope the night goes well. I hope you get to scream as loud as you want. I hope you don’t fight me on keeping your ears protected the whole night. I am beside myself with joy!
Love Dad
