Hey all…
I wanted to give you an update on the granuloma just above my vocal cord. I had surgery this afternoon to remove it and am now on complete vocal rest for a month or more. It’s been a very long process in waiting to see if time was an alternative to surgery, but even given two weeks’ voice rest (along with many other approaches), there was no change for the better.
I should be frustrated but I can’t seem to stop thinking about beautiful things… I never thought I’d be wishing I could do what I love again; I stay in at night, picking guitar parts off of records and dreaming of playing on the big stage. The only difference between now and when I was 18 is that now I have this beautiful, meaningful record waiting for me when I can sing it.
Until then, I’m taking off. Going to travel the country, look and listen.
sincere love
P.S. thanks to those who sent birthday wishes, especially those who contributed to the Happy Birthday video… I streamed it to TV and let it run like a music playlist for the whole 30 minutes on my birthday. You’re the best.

Our baby’s had surgery!!! .….….go one month without speaking??? -> Tag THAT things I don’t think I could ever DO!!!
It sounds like it went well. *is still worried*
John sounds happy! *likes that lots*
Regarding the meaningful record awaiting him: *squuuueeeeee* *IS SO EXCITED I CAN’T WAIT!*
Jm I just want that wonderful vocal back and u to stay as u is luv u lots I think he knows. I will always wait for that meet and greet
There’s too much I want to say, but for now I’ll just say I Love this Man’s witty ass tooo! And yes he is misunderstood. Funny thing is, I liked what I couldn’t see or hear. But I’ve never been one to conform to the views of others. Hopefully he wont go mad cuz I hear he has a lot to look forward to once he recovers, and he will.
all i want is this man to be happy! i love his witty ass. but not being able to talk? i would go mad as i am sure he is.
so happy he had a good birthday we share the day and after 32 years mine did not suck. I guess because i have given up expectations. lol! I hope he travels for fun. He can kick a can around phoenix I won’t stalk him promise!
I think he is completely misunderstood by almost everyone i know anyway. he has never been malicious and this little not to the world is sweet. love love love
get well soon & take care John. XO
