The evolution of a dream

Most everyone has a dream. Not everyone does something about that dream.

James Bishop is one person who goes against the grain in this way. He had a far fetched goal that he wanted more than anything in the world- to have his favorite band play at his wedding this coming July. Today, 460 days later, Bish got his wish. Here's a recap of how it all began.

Step 1- Go out on a limb

Bishop and Douch explain their campaign for the first time.

Step 2- Make it personal

The guys launch a Mac Attack!!

Step 3-Take to the streets

Bishop and Douch take the campaign on tour in the UK and get to pitch their request face to face with their favorite band.

Step 4- Persevere

Each day without fail, Bishop or Douch (or both) made a video explaining what it would mean if Hanson played the wedding.

Step 5- Endure

A very bad day

Bishop discovers that Hanson has booked a gig in the US the day of his wedding, making it literally impossible to make his one wish come true.



Step 6- An unexpected surprise

After 458 days of silence, Hanson presents an offer that is too good to pass up!


Step 7- Give thanks

Bishop responds to the reality that he is going to get to give his new wife the opportunity of a lifetime, thanks to the one band he thought he'd never get to involve in the happiest day of his life.


This entire campaign is just visible proof that perseverance pays off. Will Hanson play every fan's honeymoon from this day forward? I doubt it will ever happen again. But for the guy who recruited a sole comrade to help single handedly tackle an impossible feat,  today he receives the gift he once could only dream of.

Congratulations to James Bishop and the soon to be Mrs.Jennie Bishop! Accolades are also in order for Chris Douch, who helped make the campaign everything it was. I know I won't be the only one missing your guys'  hilarious videos.

Maybe we're just going to have to start a campaign of our own... Bishop and Douch Do America?   I say you take the comedy duo on the road, guys!!!!
