I’ve been looking forward to seeing the Foo Fighters at Target Field for months now. I got tickets the first day of the pre-sale. This was even a bit more special because Mazie has become a bit of a fan of the Foo’s and wanted to come as well. What a treat it was to sing (scream?) along to “My Hero” with her at the show.
