Yesterday was GREAT! Woody and I jammed at the practice warehouse. Although he doesn't have total use of his left arm and foot, THE Jeff Wood went at it with one stick, AND... kicked some ass! I went in thinking we'd do this for a few minutes just for our emotions and attitudes but noooooooo, not Woody. We jammed, baby. We worked on material we had started working on before the surgery. It was awesome. I couldn't contain my emotions. It was pure joy. He's a ways off, but what a fuckin' trooper. He's a musician, and you can't keep a musician down even if he's cut in half (figuratively speaking). Woody hears drums in his head and he's got to get them out. I thank God I had the pleasure of seeing my buddy be able to do this again. Now, the skies are the limit. Patience and time. That's all now. Told ya we'd be back! God bless Jeff Wood. The wonderful fill in drummers will continue for a bit but little by little... I don't care how long it takes. Soon there will be projects Woody and I can work on while we're waiting for his full recovery. Take care. Later, Butch
