What's New
Just wanted to let everyone know that because of health reasons my wife and I won't be able to attend the reunion. I was looking forward to it, but things have changed. I hope you all have a great time. I'll especially must reuniting with the old "Flatus Four", and others. I've had to retire on disability with two cancers and a seronegative spondyloarthropathy and have had 8 surgeries in the past 4 years with radiation therapy. The good news is I'm in remission now and doing reasonably well, but my wife has new onset cardiac issues. Oh well, it's hell getting older.
I have been doing some music in my forced retirement. I put out a CD in 1993. I got good reviews and part of one of the songs was in an episode of MTV's :"Teen Mom" show. I've had two "Billboad Song Awards", a "Mike Pinder Songwars" award and been in the Broadjam "Top Tens" several time. Currently I have three songs in finalist position for possible picks in movie/tv slots or catalogs.
I have some of my songs up on a webpage at http://tuckneilson.tripod.com if anyone is interested.
Hope you're all well and enjoying your varied practices. I miss mine.
