Hi everybody and thanks for taking a moment to visit my site for all news and information about my life and music, that I’ve deemed “not none of your business !

11/22/2024

So, everything happens the way it happens…not the way it’s supposed to, not for a reason, not for the best…it just happens the way it happens.

My spinal stenosis surgery was again put off because they want me to get a heart catheterization done first and see what that reveals. So, for the moment, my normal life proceeds while I wait for insurance to blah blah blah

NO DATE FOR ANYTHING as of this writing.

The heart cath will reveal whether I can proceed with the spinal surgery OR deal with the heart issue first. If I have to get the heart treated with a stent or whatever first, that pushes my spinal surgery back a minimum of six months due to blah blah blah

Meanwhile I feel fine as far as my heart goes. No tightness in the chest, no shortness of breath. Some days I find myself moving and doing as if I don’t have spinal stenosis, but it’s there. It’s sort of like a constant discomfort that makes me grunt and groan my way through life and keeps a pained look on my face.

I’m still cracking jokes, talking shit etc.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, twice now, I’ve given away my gigs when I thought I would be recovering from surgery.

So currently there’s nothing on the calendar. But I’ve reached out a bit to pick up something before the end of the year.

That “LOCAL” place just put out that post looking for live music, so…

Once again, a reminder that I’m working on my next original release, “THE MESS” with my musical team that helps me get things done.

The Mike Mead/Eric Wolf DUO is busy in the lab working up some tasty covers to invigorate the set list and the MIKE MEAD BAND is still searching for the right drummer.

The MIKE MEAD BAND is:

Ronnie Taber-bass/vocals

Eric Wolf-lead guitar

Mike Mead-lead vocals/guitar

Everyone, have a peaceful Thanksgiving and may the holiday season be blah blah blah
