Hehehe... I saw the clips yesterday, sent him an email and said that I wished "I had been there to applaud". Hmmmm.

Anyway, for those that may not be aware of the nature of the opoeration and the true accomplishment involved.... BTW, I edited (shortened) the following post a wee bit...

Truth be known I had implants in my vocal folds about 2 years ago and it is only in the past 5 to 6 months that I have been able to carry a tune to a degree. That is the reason I had been refusing gigs. Oh, I've been going to local coffee house and gatherings as such doing two to three songs (out to one this evening.)but nothing like a half hour gig. I'm not nervous (well a little.) but more concerned with my wind stamina. I'm on heavy doses of medication which is controlling my arthritis very well but one of the side effects is shortness of breath.
