First Post of '09

blog post
So I’m hoping this post finds you all well. Enjoyed all the holidays and new years extravaganzas your little hearts could stand. Things were hectic here but good, thanks for asking. I was waiting to post until after I met with the doctors and had an idea about what the next few months may hold. I’m going in for another surgery on the 19th. A bone graft from my pelvis to fill in a gap in my femur. Then another lovely knee to hip scar to insert a steel plate over the whole thing to hold it steady. Metal, then bone, then more metal. This is totally gonna ruin my male leg modeling aspirations. As if it weren’t tough enough to get work in the pale- ass- chicken leg category now I’ve gotta hope for luck in the pale- ass- chicken leg -looked like you were attacked by sharks category. Great, guess I’ll have to go back to rock and roll. The doc’s don’t seem to think it will set back my rehab much and I’m hoping they’re right. Just because we love you and want you to be first to know it looks like there’s gonna be a handful of shows in April. When I say ‘handful’ I mean like little tiny baby handful. This is NOT the WIll Hoge Comeback Rock Tour. These are gonna be a few smaller acoustic based shows. Really just me trying to get out and fall in love with playing live again. Sort of like spring training. Getting used to singing again, playing again, riding in Thor again. Having to deal with Siggi and Adam and Sean again……..oooooh boy, that’ll suck. In all seriousness, I’m just hoping we can have a bit of fun. I’ll probably still not be walking so the shows will be seated and I’ll still be using a cane. Keep the friggin’ “House” jokes to yourselves thank you. It’ll also serve as a tightening up process for trying to go back in the studio and fininsh the new album in May. Then we’ll see how I’m feeling/doing and go from there. Again I appreciate all the kind words and support that y’all have continued to show. It makes this process much easier. I guess that’s it. My best to you all. See you soon.
