update

Brad's tumor was not cancerous, so no radiation or chemo. He'll be fine. This afternoon he was back to his old self. They'll let him out tomorrow.

I've driven almost 400 miles since Monday morning, 4 trips to Charlotte and two to Statesville. The Dynamic Stability Control crapped on the way home just now. Back to the dealership, except they have to order the part so no driving until I head to Charlotte for the repair.

My only goal for this evening is to rest and play the new Martin guitar . Tomorrow night, The Mantras are playing in Winston-Salem. Planning on shooting the show. Gov't Mule on Sunday night. Then off to visit my friend Marsha in Sullivan's Island on Monday (if the car is fixed) and go see Grace Potter and the Nocturnals on Tuesday night. WideSpread Panic at the end of the month.

This economy is bringing out the "Closet Queens." No not that kind of queen, guitars that were purchased but rarely played and have been in the closet for years. Great deals abound.
