That's right - I don't think I could have made that long drive back to my hotel without that caffeine. :wink: And trust me, I know what you mean about real life taking up so much time.

Very cool Mike! I bet that would be a great show.
I'd love to see JD live one day!
Me too Lou....I've heard he really chats it up in his concerts. A lot more laid back that most concerts that are put on. I'd really like to catch him!
JD was recently interviewed by the Huffington Post - it's posted on his site:

Glenn and the Eagles get a lot of ink as well.
BTW, on his new album, Natural History, he's recorded three Eagles songs that he co-wrote: New Kid in Town, The Sad Cafe, and Best of My Love.
I received this email from JD Souther's website earlier today. I really hope he is okay. Sending lots of positive thoughts his way...

Hey Team Souther -
Unfortunately the next few shows have been canceled due to a medical emergency. JD is returning to Nashville for urgent medical treatment and is expected to make a full recovery. All canceled dates will be rescheduled for the fall.
Please email mgmt with any questions or concerns.
JD would like to express how important this tour and his fans are to him and he looks forward to seeing them soon!

Just got another email entitled "A Personal Note From JD!" I guess it's painful, but not too serious, thankfully!

ATTACK OF THE GIANT KIDNEY STONES
All
So here I am loving life, the nice words and good news about the record today, music, Boston, everything and ......a slow motion explosion. Two big kidney stones sent me wincing and groaning into Tufts Medical Center ER where they medicated me, CTscanned me, cared for me beautifully, and sent me, papers and pictures in hand, to Nashville to have these dealt with at home. They are big stones, both in one kidney and they've gotta go. I'm back at the Ritz/Carlton trying for some zzzz's before we fly, as I've been up all night in the ER.The excellent concierge here whose name will follow later, sent us to Tufts Medical Center, only a few blocks away where Dr.Sunil Shroff and ER nurses Kristin Brosius, Donna Crane, and especially the wonderful Trish Lloyd cared for me like family and told me to go home and have them dealt with immediately. In Nashville Dr. David
Forbes talked me through the symptoms and coaxed me to the hospital long distance. Imagine, a twenty first century doctor who takes your call anytime and many times on a Friday night. I don't have to imagine because I have one.
Jason Zito, the Tour Manager from beyond the call of duty did everything right and more.
There's my big night off in Boston. And there goes a show I was really looking forward to playing. Naturally, it's the bus you don't see coming that hits you.
I'm sore and tired and lucky to know great people.
More details later,
JD
