For Love! Sign petition to James Taylor for me to propose at his concert on Nov. 2

I'm petitioning James Taylor to propose to my girlfriend at his Nov 2nd concert in Minneapolis.

Help me by signing here.

It’s my 2nd chance! We were at James Taylor’s Cleveland performance in July. In February, I wrote James a letter asking permission to propose to her onstage there. I never heard anything back. Now, he’s playing in Minneapolis on November 2nd. Help me propose in way that she’ll remember forever.

Here’s what I wrote in my card in February:
James,
I believe in asking for what you want out of life. I find that the Universe is usually generous if you do. I want to propose to my girlfriend, Michelle, at your July concert in Cleveland. Michelle is a long-time fan of yours and we will be flying in to see your show. I’ve known Michelle for 7 years and during that time, your music has come to represent her for me; the smile it puts on her face, the presence it weaves into a moment, the freedom it unleashes in her spirit. It makes me smile and gives me another chance to fall in love with her. I don’t want to miss out on this opportunity to acknowledge that I understand the gift she will be giving me by sharing herself with me. I also want to propose to her in a way that says, “I care about what you love so I CHOSE this time and place.” and, “I want the world to know that I love you and want to be with you forever.” Last year, Minnesota approved same sex marriage and I’m so excited to marry this woman.
Can you help me?
Thanks,
Michele
(P.S. Yes we are Michele & Michelle )
