You know what, Brink, he was saying something last night which I did not understand, but now that I have read your last comments, it makes more sense. It went something like this:

"Last year I had the hand thing going on and now I've got the head thing." My friend thought he was joking about losing his mind, but I had thought it meant that he had a head cold or something like that.

Oh how I wish that it is just catching a cold that made the voice sound the way it did. When I saw him last year, he seemed to get stronger as the night wore on. Last night, the voice seemed to get more strained as the night wore on. His voice was actually "crackling" you know like when a person is losing one's voice.

Anyway, I hope this is the reason, and that he had a good night's sleep last night and was able to rest up for the concert in Sheboygan tonight.
