In your own words: In 1982 I went to my first Police Picnic at Exhibition stadium in Toronto, I just turned 17 a month before my tickets were my Birthday present, once I saw my boys live I never missed a concert to this day. I was devastated when my boys broke up but Sting was my man and the love affair continued. My family and friends tease me about my obsession with Sting, I say this because Stings music has been a part of my life through the ups and downs, and everything in between. I have never missed Sting live, I have seen him every time he's come to Toronto, and if he’s playing across the border and its within driving distance I'm there to. My luckiest day was when I won a ticket to NYC, to be a part of the fan club celebration of Stings 62nd Birthday and The Last Ship it was a night I will never forget.
