How we met

The concert that changed our lives.....

Anybody that knows me knows that My Morning Jacket is my favorite band. The band had taken a break from touring but decided to play four shows in 2019 and 2 of them were at Red Rocks in Morrison, CO, which just so happens to be my favorite concert venue! My best friend Scott & I were lucky enough to score tickets to both nights. Scott's wife, Torri was joining us in CO, but didn't have tickets to either show. As Scott and I were "pre-gaming" for the first night at a local brewery in Denver, we thought it would be a good idea to snag a ticket for Torri to join us for the second night. As Scott & I started scouring secondary sites, Scott found a "guy" selling front row tickets for both nights. After some back & forth with the seller and Scotts blessing, I decided to purchase the front row tickets for both nights. Later that afternoon, I met up with the seller of the tickets, better known as G-Funk & Pammers Bernat! We went through introductions and that's where I first met Allison. I was immediately struck by her beauty and fine taste in music....! As we got escorted to our front row seats, Allison and I naturally sat next to each other and started talking. I'm not sure that it was exactly love at first site, but there was an immediate attraction as we began talking and eventually swaying into each other as the concert rolled through hit after hit. We had indulged throughout the night in some local offerings and so everybody was feeling pretty good as the lights turned on and everyone went their separate ways after the show. We met back up for the second night & picked up right where we had left off! By this point the attraction on both ends was undeniable! Half way through the second set, Jim James was talking & asked the crowd to turn to the person next to them & give them a kiss, if they were willing. That was our first kiss and the rest is history as they say! We now have a beautiful daughter and we are so thrilled to spend our special day with so many friends!!
