I was injured in Iraq July 2004 I lost the use of my hand by a IED. When I was in Iraq I promised myself I would attend my favorite group of all time, which is the Red Hot Chilli Peppers. They had a huge impact to me in my tour in Iraq and with my recovery. Due to recent changes in my health I am now getting amputated in 2 to 3 months I would like to go see them before I go into surgery. My Hero's wish is that I would like to attend any Chili Peppers concert in Texas area.

Thank You Message from the Hero:
I want to Thank everyone who had an influence on granting my Hero's Wish. The concert was great and there isnt enough words to right down, how much this concert meant to me. I also want to thank the Red Hot Chili Peppers and their staff for allowing me to hangout backstage with them. Veterans Tickets Foundation is truly the meaning of giving back to those who gave some, you all are doing a great job, and I will be forever grateful for everything you all did for me. Again Thank You. Semper Fi, USMC SGT. Jesse J. Longoria (Ret)
