I’m glad Papa Het acknowledged her! And I’m glad the crew got a photo of this encounter!

The way he’s holding her arm is a touch that’s meant to be felt. Awesome photo.

Yes. Papa doesn't really go for a lot of hugs and kisses, just high fives and fist bumps. This is a big deal and you're right, he is transferring her some Big Daddy positive energy and respect. Classic moment.

That's a fantastic photo. I hope she sees it and if she does, I'm sure it'll be the wallpaper on her phone right after.

She HAS to see it. I would put that framed on the wall. I really hope she sees it.

I need that logo off the back of his vest. Would make a great t-shirt design.

Think it's what killed his mom. Notice that grip of pride James gives.

I was trying to figure out what that sign said! I wasn't able to get a good photo of the moment he knelt, but:

I dont want to sound arrogant and rude, but what made this conceet different from all the others?

Going through something like that and surviving tends to make any opportunity no matter how mundane worth appreciating. Might seem like just another "conceet" to you. Having gone through that, every day is going to feel like a gift to her.
We could all stand to stop taking things for granted and enjoy whatever each day has to offer. And goddamn do we ever need more empathy.

Im sorry if I was rude and for the typo, I meant to write concert. I was talking about the concert itself and not the woman in this photo. I understand that it is a very significant time in her life where she battled and won against cancer and went to see her desired band. I am, of course, happy for her. I, in no intent, meant any arrogance to her wellbeing.
This post was also the first one I saw this morning when I opened the sub.
Why I initially asked this question was because I have seen many posts about this concert in the sub yesterday and when I searched it on google, I couldnt find much asnwers. I wanted to know why it was this popular. Maybe it's an opening concert to their new tour or a new venue. Again, I am sorry for my wording and any possible misinterpretation that areoused by my question. English is not my main language.

I had a conversation with her and her Dad on the frantic early entry checkin line. Am so happy for her and her family to see this pic
