    He is slowly improving as Tig states. His spirits are good. Perhaps I can nudge him to make an appearance here on theFret.

    Thanks for the link, Tig. I am able to see the pictures. I'm following him now on Instagram. He seems to be making decent progress, but I guess I didn't fully grasp the extent to what he was going through. More prayers.

    Krash is doing pretty well. I am FB friends with him. He still has procedures the "therapies" to go but he looks well, has aspirations and hopes to get back on stage playing his gits.

    Hey guys! Thanks for your thoughts and concerns.

    I had my jaw rebuilt in October, and then unfortunately the neck tissue was too fecked, sorry "not viable," to stay sewn together, so in November they took a piece of pectoral muscle from my chest and "flipped" it up into my neck. Most of the tissue there is doing fine, although one small spot hasn't quite healed completely-- a few weeks ago, I touched the wound thinking I was touching a scab and a tiny screw came out!

    They thought they would have to go back in and take all the metal bits out, but I think the plastic surgeon got overruled by the ENT surgeon, and for now they have left everything in. The hipbone part they stuck in has begun fusing to the existing remaining jawbone, and it's not infected, so that's all good. They'll probably recauterize the wound with some silver nitrate when I go back (Mayo Clinic in Jax, FL, a couple hours from where I live) on April 28, unfortunately your neck twists and turns a lot and that makes healing up difficult.

    We had a Crash Pad practice last Saturday, with 3 out of 4 members, and although my singing voice has become even further limited, I can still manage. Fortunately it's just punk rock and not opera, or we'd be fecked. Post-practice photo of the rig:



    In addition to Crash Pad renewing, I recently talked my way into an Irish music band a friend and bandmate (from side performance-art band Bill Perry Orchestra) is in, O'Reilly & Co. I played a St. Pat's gig with them on ONE practice, haha!



    So it's been a little rough but I'm hanging in there. Will try to contribute here more.

    Hey, Brian - great to hear from you! Man, what a slog! Hope I could have half the courage, if it ever comes to me. Glad to see that you are playing - music heals! Keep on keeping on.

    Best,

    ted

    Great to hear from you Brian! Glad to hear you are doing better, and playing Irish music must be a good thing!

    Great to hear from you, Brian! I've been stalking, er, following your progress on the Instagrams. I feel really bad that you had to go through all of this. I was thrilled to see that Krash Pad will be playing again, albeit with slightly more restrained guitar faces. Oh and kudos on picking up the Irish music gig although a St. Patty's gig with only one practice is WAY beyond my level of bravado.

    Respect to you Crash! And all the best of course for the wounds to heal quickly! Great to see you still rock the scene down there in Florida :-)))

    Thanks Jimi!

    Crash Pad played its first gig in over a year and a half on Friday night. A little sooner than I might've liked, on only 4 band practices after the hiatus. It was a benefit for a low-power local community radio station that a couple friends DJ at. Fortunately, we played a really good set, even debuted a brand new song.

    Here's the backline (acoustic belongs to the opening act), albeit with the drums not yet located for the set:



    A couple shots from the set:
