Hope you have a quick and full recovery. Sad I'll be missing your guys' show in Philly as I was flying in from New Hampshire after the snowstorm kept me from the TT the Bears show. All the best Billy. Come back strong. Sorry to hear about the accident Billy. Hope you have a quick and full recovery.

Landing on a stray pint glass, he lacerated his hand and severed some some tendons in his left pinkie–the most underestimated finger necessary for rocking those sweet Pela jams. It looks like they have canceled all their upcoming shows up until their May 26th appearance at Sasquatch. This also means they will not be doing an in-studio here at KEXP on March 4 as planned. Get better soon, Billy! Send your condolences here.

I hope you are alright and I will miss visiting with you and the band in Los Angeles.
