So I'm not the only one crocked and in pain at the moment. Take care, Jimmy - and take it easy when you can.

thanks bill...my misery especially loves company hope you feel better, bro.

so now i think my stomach flu is back because i got so rundown yesterday. but the bruised rib is about 50% better today, so i've got that going for me. still, i hate going onstage less than 100%.

Falling crossing the street? You're supposed to start drinking AFTER the show.

Since my diagnosis in October, pain has been a constant for me. Try 'n' avoid the offer of a lifetime membership.
