I agree with you Dawna! The Loverboy fans up here are pretty amazing! The "support" the fans show is so awesome whenever I see Loverboy! And really, isn't that what it should be about? I am sure that Loverboy fans everywhere would agree that it should be about the "quality"--if I may borrow that word from you Dawna--of support, sincerity and loyalty they show toward the band and NOT about how many fans there are in one place and not another.
