Well I am sure most of you have heard the news ...... I have a boo boo, a pretty bad one at that, I broke my leg in THREE places on the 3rd. They operated on the 4th and kept me in the hospital until the 6th ....... I am at home now, but in a lot of pain .... they have me on some pretty strong pain killers, which helps, but i am trying to walk so can start getting to shows, for all of you ..... I was looking forward to playing the two shows in Baltimore ....... now for the mushy section -
John, thank you soooo much for not leaving me in the woods when I broke my leg man, I was panicking a lot, and was talking some pretty bad shit, but you stayed there and kept me as calm as possible, there is no way Ican repay you for that -
Ilia, thanks for getting help for us -
Josh, I know when you are in the tree house, you are living life to the fullest, it means a lot to me that you came out from the "party" to come and cheer me up for a few min before my surgery -
The ENTIRE Shryock family, thank you so much for coming out to visit me in the hospital, it means a lot to me, that you all came out, staring at a TV is only fun when you are healthy ;)
and finally to the fans -
it is because of YOU all, that Iam pushing myself hard, through this physical therapy to get well, Iw to be up on the stage in front of you all ASAP ...... I am having good and bad days right now....today was OK (I made it downstairs to the computer) but iwill not be so lucky everyday .... so if you w to get in touch with me, a good OLE fashion letter would do it, I will be SURE to get back to you, I have nothing else to do .....
