    It speaks volumes about you that you fulfilled the obligation and played the gig, even though you weren't at 100%.

    Glad to read that you made it through okay. Now, do what your doc told ya, and get some rest! You earned it, man.

    Glad to hear you made it through, Plank. I'm trying to get over bronchitis too. Was in the hospital the last 3 days, but am free now. I had to sing a solo and a quartet number in our Easter Cantata last Sunday. I, too, was pretty well drugged up to make it through.

    When he put me in the hospital, I told the doctor I had to be out by Friday, because our youth praise band is playing 2 songs this Sunday night. I work with the kids and play guitar for them, so they kinda want me there - didn't want to disappoint them.

    I'm getting better, but a long way from well. This bronchitis just doesn't go away quietly. I usually have one good case a year, but this one's definitely been the worst.

    Sick or not, the show must go on! :

    I can't say that I care to do it again, but if I have to I will. Bar owners frown on last minute cancellations, so the show must go on.

    A drive down the shore, wind blowing through her strings.

    Spanky pulls over and gazes into her pups with the sound of the waves crashing...

    ...such deep P90s...

    ...he fiddles absent mindedly with her tuning pegs...


    State Trooper arrives: *waAAAUUUuuuhh wwaaaAAAAAAaUUUUuuuuh*

    Alright buddy. Move along.

    Believe or not, those are not tighty-whiteys - they are honest to goodness, though very large, undergarments of the "panties" variety :

    Ok, I think we are all a little sick now.

    Plank is probably playing away on the SG and has forgotten about illness for now.

    No, they were brand new - it was a gag (obviously) in response to my newly re-aquired rock-star "posertude" :
