Neil Young missing Junos

[bjb]

I'll miss Neil tomorrow, but he's taking a rain check.

The news report says:
"After performing with the Pretenders on March 14 at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in New York, the artist experienced what his publicist describes as "visual field disturbances," and an MRI scan revealed the source of the problem.

"Rather than have surgery immediately, Young spent the next week in Nashville recording for an as-yet-unrevealed project. Tuesday’s (March 29) procedure has been called "a complete success," and Young is expected to make a full recovery. But the artist has been forced to cancel his planned Sunday (April 3) appearance at Canada’s Juno Awards while he recuperates.

"I grew up (in Winnipeg) and was really looking forward to the show as well as spending some time with my old friends and family," Young said in a statement. "Thanks to my doctors, I’m feeling a lot better now, so I hope I can get a rain check."

I know that some people survive with no ill effects, since my sister had the same problem and is 100% now. Very scary stuff though.

I'm glad he had that aneurysm taken care of,that's the same thing that took Laura Branigan last year. She had headaches quite frequently but did not go see a Dr. about it.

I wish Neil well and best wishes.
