"YOU'RE A MEAN ONE...JEREMY ENIGK!!"...

Dear Jeremy Enigk,

My husband, Justin, has been a fan of your music since he was in junior high school. Yes…when everyone else was rockin’ out to New Kids On The Block, Bel Biv Divo, and Slaughter…my husband was listening with ease to Sunny Day Real Estate. In college, he was so pleased to find out that you had embarked on a new journey called the Fire Theft. This band was equally as wonderful to Sunny Day. Justin was very happy and was again enjoying your new music. Then comes the movie “The United States of Leland”…with YOUR expertise and voice on the soundtrack. And lets not forget to mention your superb solo work throughout the years.

Needless to say…my husband Justin is one of your BIGGEST fans. Has researched, found all of your music available and owns a large stock of it.

OH…. BUT THEN YOU HAVE TO MESS EVERYTHING UP!!!

Justin bought a ticket to see you play in Lawrence, KS…and you canceled the show. How unfortunate. But, all was well…we got our money back. No big deal. Just a Bummer!

THEN…we find out that you’re playing Memphis TN. Just a mere 5 hours away. EUREKA!!! We bought tickets again in anticipation of seeing you perform. We even saved up money for restaurants along the way, we booked a hotel room, and spent A LOT of money on gas. So…needless to say…Memphis was adding up the dough.

BUT…AGAIN…YOU FAILED US!!! YOU WERE A “NO SHOW”!!!!!!!!!!!!! Shame Shame Shame on you Jeremy Enigk. We atleast got our money back for the ticket. But, not for the hotel, restaurants or gas. BOO HISSY!!!

So, my husband is bummed...but, he's such a huge fan...that he's STILL going to try to see you play in Norman, OK. Please don't cancel this show...PLEASE?

A “no show”???...who does that?...shame shame.

Maybe he'll dedicate a song to Justin in Norman.

What a Butt! Seriously...who does a no-show. Kinda Diva-esque, no?

Glad to see post even if it was about something crappy! Sorry that your concert experience was less than pleasing!!

Random PS...have you have the Gingerbread Latte yet? It really makes me feel like the Holidays are here every year! SO GOOD!

I figured you'd already had one this lovely fall season. : ) But it's the one drink I run for as soon as Halloween is over to begin the celebration of Thanksgiving and Christmas!! : )

Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy!
