It’s true that I probably lost a little height in this accident… cracking three discs in your spine can drop you a quarter-inch or so, apparently. But this new video makes me look positively tiny.

Our singer du jour, my old work pal Sean, is 6’5″ and 300+ pounds. My bass player, Patrick, is 6’3″ and constructed like a lowland gorilla. I’m a relatively slight six-two (minus the spine!) and somewhat frail after twenty-plus days on a walker. Still, to celebrate the fact that I can stand up without said walker for short periods of time, we decided to play some music. Why not?

Not shown: the half-hour I spent curled up on the couch afterwards. So what. Let’s rock.
