I really really hope he goes on tour again. I know he isn't coming out with anymore albums, but he said he wasn't retiring. I wish I could redo the concert I went to. I loved it so much! it was amazing! but I wish I filmed more (I wanted to film WBUL so badly, but my dad was sitting right next to me, so I didn't) also, my dad offered to let us wait for him at the bus...

but my sister wasn't even sure he would come out, and my sister was also very shy to meet him. Also, there was a problem with our tickets. We thought we bought tickets for the 5th row, but it turned out to be the 5th row in the balcony. It didn't even say on the website that they were 5th row seats on the balcony, and we found out after we printed the tickets. Oh well, I still LOVED the concert! 
I'm pretty sure I would have cried. Believing you get to see him from so close and then suddenly -
but its still a shirtless photo! Also, has any one noticed that he
