Our Stars Love Story

The Story of how I met the love of my life

Dear Stars,

Let’s just start by saying we are huge fans. Our names are Brayden and Evelyn and we are reformed love cynics who have you guys to thank for the fantastic coincidence that is our lives. Each of us is an avid music fan separately, and together we share a ridiculous amount of great taste in common. What sets Stars apart is that you are the reason we truly got to know each other.

We had been friends on Facebook through a mutual friend for months, but never actually spoke in real life until much later than the initial friend request. Despite the infamous power of social networking, we knew very little about each other. Eventually we were presented with a little face time opportunity at a barbecue. One of us worked up the nerve to go talk to the other, music being the only thinkable ammunition for striking up a conversation. We had a short exchange about your appearance at the Calgary Folk Fest and parting remarks included a drunken request to let each other know about tickets. Eventually, one of us had tickets, told the other, who in turn suggested meeting up and the first gave their phone number. The recipient of the phone number began a flurry of text messages that resulted in the most excellent coffee date either of us had ever had.

The two of us have since become an item and we could not have found a more perfect match. Looking back at all the developments in our whirlwind romance, we have come to the conclusion that without Stars, we wouldn’t be here. We probably wouldn’t have talked based on high amounts of bashfulness, and we definitely wouldn’t have had an excuse to exchange phone numbers. Weeks later, we have realized a serious amount of love for Stars and for each other. We’ve decided to call it our Stars Love Story, and we credit you with crossing our paths and introducing soul mates.

We’ll be at your show on November 1st 2010, singing along in the name of cheesy and ridiculous love.

With thanks for music and common ground,

Brayden and Evelyn
Calgary, Alberta
