Ha ...you read ma mind J....

Thing is ...when u r very independent and in control and don't enjoy people doing things for you ...its a killer...suddenly your life is full of well meaning people who love you .....hovering ......worrying

Anyone who has ever fallen, been in an accident, sudden tragedy which overturns your life.... will know that it takes ages to not feel shaky afterwards...I raise my hat(ok my high topped gold crown) to Duncan... and everyone else in the band/crew for getting as far as they did

I simply stopped driving on bypasses after an accident....

Slipped in the snow once and now ...well just avoid going out if it is slippy




Dya know....after watching this below....

Methinks a dose of warm sunshine somewhere would help ...maybe with an attending ...helper

There sure has J.

He's eventually had an x-ray.
Seems he's not only cracked a rib, but he's also managed to catch pneumonia.
Doctor says at least 6-weeks rest.

The positive side of this is that we managed talk him into doing most of the tour, so cancelations have been minimal. It's always a downer to miss gigs. We were really enjoying playing (except for dunc of course, he was having a worse nightmare than we realised), and the audience never fails to amaze us with the warmth of their response.

We will spend the next month or so finishing the record while dunc recuperates And there will be more gig announcements soon.

As lead drummer and the one who writes all the lyrics and music ( I suspect play everything as well) will you be docking his pay for being lazy or are you just to nice for your own good and allowing him to galavant unpunished
