| My best friend Tony and I last saw TS on the "Come Out and Play" tour when they visited Rochetser, NY. The show back then was incredible, and has left us wanting more for many years. Unfortunately, our friendship took a 20+ year hiatus aftder a huge argument. But when we reunited at the end of 2009, we immediately began wishing we could see TS again. Realizing that a grand upstate NY tour will never be in the cards (although a Turning Stone show would be a great idea, hint, hint), we decided to make the trek downstate for the Best Buy show. Hands down it was the best concert either of us have ever seen. What a great, well-rounded setlist. The sound from our vantage point (on the left side in the wheelchair area--my friend suffers from Guillen Barre Syndrome) was incredible. And the top-notch staff at Best Buy Theater made for an awesome night. But what I will never forget is the great fans we met; the ones we talked to outside the venue and also met inside the show. It confirmed for me that TS fans are the best SMFs out there!!! So thank you Jay Jay for making your idea a reality. Thank you to the rest of the members of TS for a great show (and for many years of great music). Thank you to the TS road crew, management, etc. for doing it all for free. Thank you to the staff at Best Buy. You're care and consideration for my friend in a wheelchair is unmatched. And thank you to all the fans. You're awesome!!!!
