Thanks to @talktojoey for making sure things are covered for me. Thanks to my family, to Sally and Joanna for being here with me, and thanks to all of you for your prayers and caring messages. Also thanks to the Klinikum Kuhlmbach for keeping me among the living!
Medical/Truegrass update: Well, circumstances could be better. I’m in a hospital in Bavaria, Germany, after a very bad fall on a staircase. They did emergency surgery on Sunday for a ruptured spleen and I have multiple broken ribs.
I did the show from Italy, which is exactly where this show was supposed to be broadcast from. You’ll hear songs for the upcoming Veterans Day/Remembrance Day, songs by Roy Lee Centers—one of my favorite lead singers—whose birthday would have been tomorrow, and lots more.
What this means for today is that for maybe only the third time ever, Truegrass will be a rerun today. @siriusxm Bluegrass Junction will rerun my show from around this time last year when I was also on a European tour (that went a lot better than this one did!).
Just file it under ‘over’ in a little box of pain . . .” Our new @mountainhomemusicsingle, “Under Over” is out as of this morning on the streaming or download source of your choice, and in Dolby Atmos on Apple Music and other select platforms.
What a night of music, history, friends, and memories at the 50th anniversary of Special Consensus reunion concert at the @oldtownschool in Chicago! I wouldn’t have missed it for anything.
Thanks to everyone who came out, and BIG thanks to @prewitt_michael for slaying the mandolin and harmony singing! Looking forward to @industrialstrengthbluegrass next!
Here’s the full write-up from the image you uploaded:
We can’t wait to return to the Station Inn in Nashville! We’ll be doing our latest song “How Small of Me,” in addition to plenty from past releases. We’ll have special guests, too.
9:00 PM, Friday October 17.
At Winfield. I just have to say that my band is cute. That’s simply the way it is. Grateful for these people. We had a great weekend at @walnutvalleyfestiva. Great to see old friends and meet new ones.
The best decision I ever made was marrying you, @MichelleObama. For 33 years, I’ve admired your strength, grace, and determination — and the fact that you look so good doing it all. Happy anniversary!
