We had noticed our 75-year-old bass player had been acting "spacy" recently and we were a bit worried about him. Turns out he has a non-cancerous brain tumor. He is in speech and physical rehab right now and will have surgery in the near future. Please send healing vibes to Rod. He is a "bro." We have been in several bands together over the years. .

@TheHorse I know any toumor is bad, but at least it's non-cancerous. That's a good thing.
