Friday Night Lights.

 
I sometimes joke that I waited 15 years to see my son playing under Friday night lights, but that never in my wildest dreams did I think it would be in the band. That somehow gets a chuckle when I tell it, but the reality is that as much as I enjoyed playing, and watching, [...]
