    Glad to hear the treatment is allowing you to do all of those things you listed. Sounds like you have had a busy couple of years. Hope you get Long Road. You will have two chances as Eddie likes to play it on his set too. Heard him play it solo once and he did an amazing job. Take care and enjoy the shows!

    "Watch out for music. It should come with a health warning. It can be dangerous. It can make you feel so alive, so connected to the people around you, and connected to what you really are inside. And it can make you think that the world should, and could, be a much better place. And just occasionally, it can make you very, very happy." -Peter Gabriel

    Thank you and just got our wristbands!!!

    Thanks man and I agree 100%... =)

    Thanks Jacquelyn and that would be awesome seeing you guys at the show!
  • One week from today and we will be on Doheny Beach!!!
  • Latest Update - 9/19/23 - Well I'm officially an outlier as I've outlived the mean average for my diagnosis (4 years).  It's been a long 4 1/2 years (12 months of chemo, monthly treatments and 6 months of radiation this past year).  I'm extremely grateful that with modern medicine I've tolerated these treatments extremely well.  September was my 54th consecutive month surfing in MA since my diagnosis (I even surfed the day after radiation treatment).  I've also been able to play lacrosse with my boys which has been awesome (I also got back into coaching lacrosse).  I also got my first tattoo (stickman on a surfboard) and went dog-sledding up in ME last winter.  Most important; I've been able to be here for some significant milestones - My youngest son graduated from High School, my middle son is a sophomore in college and my oldest got his first real job.  There was a time that I didn't think I would see ANY of this...Anyway, Julie and I are going to our 4th Ohana Festival and can't wait!!!  We almost cancelled again but Julie talked me into it (we need it and it wasn't a hard sell  =)).  Would love to hear Long Road if possible but honestly just psyched for our 4th Ohana Festival and the amazing line-up!!!

    Cheers!
