Prayers & positive vibes are requested for TBer & Hipwaders' bassist Bassguppy(Darren)- splenic rupture leading to cardiac arrest. Serious stuff- he's responding well- reading from a band email. Sorry no link. Gotta run, will come back w/more info. Hang in there, DJ!

I'll be praying for him. I am a Christian pastor so if anyone has his contact info and his family would like me to pray with him or them, pm me and I will pass along my contact info to give to them.

I posted in OT as I was on my way out the door & wasn't watching what I was doing. I wanted to get the word out- a thousand pardons. Also realized he's now in recovery and doing well- the email was several days old. Hopefully some accurate info here: Home/Buy

Really nice guy, got to meet him when I bought a cab off him a couple years ago. Here's hoping for a quick and healthy recovery.

Good to hear he's doing better, but prayers still on the way.

Looks likes they play children's hospitals as well. I wish a speedy recovery so you can make those little faces smile again soon.

I think I argued with bassguppy once in OT about something meaningless. Now I feel bad. I hope he recovers and joins us again so I can apologize.

I clicked through to the band's FB page, you can see updates there without having an account. Sounds like he's progressing, but still has a long way to go.

Having met the man a couple of times, I can't imagine him getting too bent about it- he was incredibly nice. That said, sometimes feeling bad is appropo- I do it all the time, as I'm an ass, and don't always hide it well.
Derail over, *healing thoughts/vibes/prayer* resumes.

Prayers going out. These guys rehearse across the street from my buddy in VV. Heard them when I was out on vacation. I hope he gets well soon.
