A Letter to Danko Jones

Dear Danko,

Why don't you like us? Why do you never come to visit us anymore?

We were disappointed when you cancelled on us a couple of years ago, but we understood. We knew that rock 'n' roll is an unpredictable vocation, and that these things happen.  We hoped you would schedule another gig in Waterloo someday, and we were excited when you booked one for next Wednesday at The Starlight.

But now you've cancelled on us again. We hear you're sick. We're sorry to hear that. The press release said it was an upper respiratory tract infection, and that sucks. We hope you feel better.

We also hope that you're not just pretending to be sick as a way of hiding your real reason for cancelling on us... again. We're really starting to get the impression that you just don't like us.  Was it something we said? Is it our breath? You can tell us. We won't be mad. Much.

We hope you come back to Waterloo someday, Danko.  We're just not holding our (bad?) breath.

Sincerely,

Disappointed Kitchenerites and Waterlooians.
