Winning Comment: Back in 2004, my current husband and I met on an airplane. On the way onto the plane, he shoved and cut in front of me. He said excuse me, but from a week long of travel and a 24 hour layover, I had had enough. So, I get on the plane and come to find out he is seated right next to me. The whole time he talked of politics and he grunted and shook his leg uncontrollably. I wanted to die. After 4 long hours, the plane finally landed and he asked me out to coffee in the airport. I said “wasn’t our first date enough?” Who whouldda thought I’d end up marrying the annoying man from seat 2A. “If the plane goes down, damn, I’ll remember where the love was found.” I think it’s an appropriate Mraz song to quote. :)  – Wanda

    The worst date I’ve ever been on was our first date, a blind date at that. I have a fake upper lateral tooth. On our the first date I was biting into a sandwich when the tooth decided to come “un-glue”. As I felt the crunch of my tooth coming unattached, I instantly became freaked out because the last thing I wanted to show this guy was a gap in my teeth. I knew the tooth had fallen out instantly. I immediately ran to the bathroom in horror. After not knowing what to do, I went back to our table and told him what had happen. He instantly laughed it off and was not disgusted by it at all. Despite my horrific nightmare of a date, we have now been dating for two years. Please re-do our first date not only because it was horrible, but because Kelly Clarkson is my boyfriend’s “it” girl. This time, I promise my tooth won’t fall out again.

    The only date night that I would love to redo is my senior prom. Although it was over ten years ago I would love to redo it. It started off with my date, who was six inches shorter then me, not bothering to get a tux/suit for the evening. I then had to buy my own corsage which his mother placed on me. It ended up cutting off my circulation about 20 minutes later. We then laoded into a limo with my friends to go to the venue. He suddenly said that he had a headache and refused to dance with me for the entire night. The prom was over and we had to get to the after party without the limo. He ended up calling his mom to come pick us up and she stayed in the backseat for the entire trip. AWKWARD!!! Go to the after party where he miraculously felt better. We seperated and mingled. I found him later making out with a random girl by the pool. I then left and called his mother to come pick him up. Would love to go have a special day with my new love. Maybe we will get all dressed up for it too. :)

    I will have to be honest. My wife would love to go and really loves Cantina La REDO and Jason Mraz. After all the concerts I have dragged her to in the past, it would be my pleasure to let her drag me to this one. Looking for a winner WRLT? I’m Yours. :)

    Last week was my birthday and my amazing friend Elle took me to St. Louis for the weekend before my birthday. We met up with some friends of hers, who happened to be in a band that was playing St. Louis that night. After the show, we hung out with them the whole night and the drummer and I got along amazingly well. Elle and the lead singer were also getting along famously. We stayed up all night talking, gambling, drinking, and flirting. When morning came and the fairytale was over, both guys promised to see us again soon and my guy even told me that though we didn’t live in the same state, what we had wasn’t over. It was straight out of a movie. Things went well for a few days then he quit texting all together. Turns out he is in love with someone else, and the lead singer has a girlfriend. Tarnished my 25th birthday a bit. Its not a date redo, but a girl’s night, birthday redo would be beyond incredible!

    I’m “entering” my daughter and her boyfriend — they moved to Nashville from Texas this summer and have been working like CRAZY since they got here. I’d love for them to have an opportunity for a date night, and my dauther loves Jason Mraz. Her boyfriend is new to Nashville (and Tennessee) and has yet to experience a big concert here. Hope they win, they could really use a date night!

    First date resulted in food poisoning. Second date we met each other at the hospital. Third date was 1 year later after running into each other at Kroger of all things!! we need another first date!!!!!!!!!!!

    Ok, so I can’t top any of those stories. I’m just a girl who is incredibly lucky to have met the most amazing man EVER. On August 22, it will be five months since we first knew we had something that doesn’t just happen every day. Our first kiss occurred right across the street from Cantina Laredo on the rainy steps of Sambuca (he swore he wasn’t going to kiss me so soon) and we both swear we heard music playing as soon as our lips met. Ever since that night, we’ve both been euphoric. We’re both rational adults, and we’ve both been married before, had our fair share of trauma and heartbreak, but I have never been loved or loved anyone so truly, so purely. I don’t care about the tickets-I’m sure there are plenty of people more deserving. I just needed to shout from the rafters a little. Everyone should scream like this when they’re in love.

    For our 3 year anniversary, I got my wife tickets to the Kelly Clarkson concert in September. I printed the tickets at home and on the print out was a HUGE ad for the Jason Mraz/Christina Perry concert. The ad was so big, she thought that’s what the tickets were for!!!! Had to break it to her that is not who she was going to see. We’ve laughed so many times about it, but it would sure help me out if I could take her! Can I get a redo on this anniversary present?!? Thanks L100!!

    Oh man….Where do I begin? My boyfriend and I moved about a month and a half ago and we had to sell all of our furniture. We are now been sleeping on a metal futon. It wasn’t horrible at first, but our 2 dogs will not stay off the “bed!” We are all tossin’ and turnin’ every night. So between the lack of sleep, and busy work season for both of us, we are in desperate need of a date (I love Jason Mraz, ofcourse) to get out of the house!

  12. Sarah H says:

    Like any couple, my husband and I have had several dates-gone-wrong. From the young kid at the next table who was already over-served (at only 6PM) and vomited just after our meals had arrived, to having to leave in the middle of a concert because the alarm company called that our house alarm had been set off (which upon returning home, discovered it was only a cat breaking into the garage). A date night to hear one of our favorite artists would be fantastic!

  13. Angela says:

    Well, this is actually for my brother and sister-in-law who are Jason Mraz fans. They had discussed going to the show, but with busy work schedules and a three year old, date nights are easier said than done. And on top of the normal craziness, they’ve had a rough last few weeks — not only did they have to say goodbye to their awesome dog of eight years, but someone broke into their home and stole some valuables. So, while they could kinda use like a month redo, I know they would appreciate a special date night. Oh, and my brother’s birthday is the 23rd and hers is nine days later. Hook them up, please! Thanks.

    My boyfriend and I have a long distance relationship..we live in different time zones. We also both travel for our work. So needless to say we see each other sparingly. But when we do it’s great and we have the best time. He actually visited me last weekend here in Nashville. Date Night! First time we had seen one another in FOUR weeks!!!!!! We were so excited like school kids reuniting after summer break. All giddy and getting caught up. We talked and talked and talked. And drank and drank and drank :/ One margarita two margarita three margarita four. Topped off with some tall boy PBRs at Bobbies Idle Hour. Blah. Hangover city. We don’t even freaking remember seein each other!? We need a Date Night Redo!!! He’s such a sweetie and will actually be back in Nashville Wednesday. It’s meant to be don’t cha think!?

  15. Nancy Law says:

    Me and my husband just need a date night period. We have three of our own children and a foster. My husband is a teacher and I am a hairdresser all we do is pass each other. I know that after 20 yrs together I am sure we have had bad dates but not having a date but Maybe three times a year is worse than any bad date. So I will make up a bad date if I need to. :-)

  16. Amanda Rushing says:

    My wife and I can’t think of any dates we need a redo for, but we are “possibly” pregnant and are sure we’re going to want many redo’s in our future. Want to help us bank one?
