ProjectVet DOES care: VIP access to Fenway Park
A HUGE “thank you” to Robert Chambers at Project VetCare for VIP access and front-row treatment at last night’s Zac Brown concert at Fenway Park. Robert’s Language of Business TV interview will shortly be airing. (Here’s his interview filming blog entry).
It’s one thing to be invited to a concert, which would have been extremely generous on-its-own.
It’s another thing to receive VIP access, in terms of parking, better seats, etc. That would have been incredibly nice, too, since we only met in late July for the first time, to do the interview.
But, last night’s experience bordered on being treated LIKE ROYALTY. Consider this:
1) Wells Fargo is a concern sponsor so extended its hospitality to veterans groups like ProjectVetCare.
2) We were served dinner BY each member of the Zac Brown Band, received personal photos ops with them, and chatted with them before the show.
3) If we were any closer to the action, on the turf at Fenway, we would essentially have been on stage. No joke.
Most importantly, Zac did a call out to all veterans during the show and even acknowledged Robert’s presence directly. Congrats on everything Project VetCare and Zac Brown are doing to support our nation’s men and women in uniform. Thank you to everyone for your service!

Excerpt from Boston Herald concert write-up:
How did the Zac Brown Band sell a record-setting 100,000 tickets to their (also record-setting) three-night-stand at Fenway Park?
Brown and his boys play as well as any live band working today. Well, any band working in arenas.
They proved that with a single song last night — the band returns tonight and Sunday. OK, a single, towering, twisting and turning medley of “Uncaged,” Led Zeppelin’s “Kashmir” and Charlie Daniels’ “The Devil Went Down to Georgia.”
