Glass Tiger is NOT managed by a "baby doctor"
First off, let me start by saying TRACY!!!
:)
There's your shout out! Thanks for coming to visit my lil' blog, even though I don't update it nearly enough as I need to!
Ok, now that we got that formality outta the way!...
I'm in a serious predicament here!
Dono and I are HUGE Glass Tiger fans! (Because I work at WestJet, I'm able to look up the names of "celebrities" who've travelled with us, and last summer, I noticed Alan Frew and the boys were coming our way for a show - so Dono and I showed up at the airport to greet them off the plane!)
We met the band, got some autgraphs, went to the show the next night, and had a blast! A few days later, I emailed their manager to thank him for being so gracious with us, and to say what a wicked time we had at the show! He responded and thanked us for coming, yadda yadda yadda.
WELL...
Fast forward to present day...I was recently checking out the GT website, and lo and behold, I see they're COMING BACK TO WINNIPEG....on December 31st!
HOORAY!
Oh wait....our baby's due date is December 28th.....
WHAT TO DO??!
That aside, I thought I would send the GT manager another email - this one would be a bit more comical, and stress to him how MUCH we love the music and how badly we want to go.
This is what I wrote to GT's manager:
Hello!
I just noticed on the GT website that the guys arecoming to the Peg on New Year's Eve!
Naturally, without hesitation, I'd be going in aheartbeat, but I have a problem, and I'd like to askyour opinion on it!
You see, hubby and I are pregnant with our first baby,and we're due Dec 28th! I understand the first baby isusually overdue, so should I chance it and get ourtickets for the show? And would Alan Frew deliver my baby on stage if I happen to go into labour then?
Chances are he wouldn't forget me when I'm gone! (harhar)
In your professional opinion, what do you think Ishould do?!!!!! Thanks, and hope to hear from you soon!

Clearly, the manager of GT is in NO POSITION to even be considered as someone who can give a "professional opinion" on this matter - that, I thought, would be obviously a tip to him that, hey, I'm not SERIOUS, but just so's ya know, I really wish I could go because the band rocks just that much!
This is the response I got:
Honestly Cat..
I'm not a baby doctor and would never presume to tell you what
to do on this issue. We would love to see you there. On the upside,
tickets will be limited and will likely sell out well in advance. If you got
two tickets and then were not able to go at the last minute, I don't think
you would have any trouble selling them to somebody else..

I think the humour of it all - what I was intending on my end - got lost in translation somewhere! Oh well, at least we know FOR SURE that GT's manager is DEFINITELY not a baby doctor.....so if there was ever any doubt........!!!
