Michael has a milestone birthday coming up in February 2018. I ran an idea past Gail that passed with approval.
I have small cards that are 2.5X3.5. The idea for the card is not to say happy birthday, but you have room to put a few sentences to tell Michael why you love him, his music or how his music helped you in hard times. It’s should be big enough for a wallet size photo if you would like.
Then when he’s home sitting at his desk, he can pull 1 or 2 cards to read when he has the time. Our words will be with him all year.
I request a SASE, and I will send you a card. Write your note and put in your picture. When your finished, mail it back to me.
For those out of the country, I checked with my postmaster and she said you can put your own postage on the return envelope equivalent to $1.15 US.
Email me, Sally, at MYSCRTPSSN@gmail.com and I can give you an address to send your SASE (self addressed stamped envelope).
A second option that isn’t as personal, is to email me a short note and I can cut and paste it onto a card for you. I don’t want to handle pictures this way because I’m not that computer literate and don’t want to make errors with something as personal as a picture.
When all the cards are gathered, I’ll put them in some sort of decorate box. And the box of cards will be Michael’s birthday gift from us.
It might seem early, but it’s something that we can work on Now through January. I’d like to be finished by February since I would need to get a box and mail it off to Michael.
Your welcome to share my email with anyone you think may be interested in contributing to Michael’s milestone 65!
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Sally

Hi Liz and welcome to the forum. I've just read your post on the tour thread and wanted to share a comment I posted just a couple of days ago on the same thread. Here it is:

"Okay, to meet Michael, there are a few things you can try. I was made aware recently that it’s possible to buy M&G’s through Michael Bolton Charities, though they can be costly.   You can always wait for him at the stage door or by the tour busses, though there aren’t any guarantees. You can write to our moderator Gail at boltoninfo@aol.com and state your case of why you want to meet Michael or you can write to the promoter of the event  and ask if passes are available. Another option would be to check with  your local radio stations where they play Michael’s music, in case they'd have contests to win tickets or backstage passes, or if they’ll be interviewing him during his stay there. You might also want to check auction web sites like EBay to find out if passes are being sold. You could also call the venue and ask if anything will be set up. In the past year, Michael has announced during concerts that he would be signing books and CD’s after the show. You can always ask the merchandise guy when you’re there. That’s all I can think of, I hope that helps." So there you go sweetie, take care. Hugs, sincerely, Sylvie QC Canada :D
