I also got struck by the impression of those rockers were involved here.
Anyway Townsend celebrated his birthday the 19th (Friday, huh?),
it seems like he is sharing his b-day with StonesDoug.
Happy berfday to these two helluva fellas three days too late!

In his defense, I honestly don't think he wanted to be funny or anything, he just chose the wrong subject line.

Guess he celebrated it for three days as the b-day
thread for him at Rocks Off started the 19th... But it is a big
globe we dwell at, in deed.

Don't think he wanted to be funny either.

Against this one 'bad news' item one could probably post hundred 'good news' items of full recovery after brain injury. I guess the almost exact age makes it have a somewhat sinister ring to it.

Unfunny? You want more yokes about Keith?

Unsensitiv? My mother died after blood clot, twenty years ago. The mother of a very goog friend of mine has a stroke yesterday evening, my friend is on the way to hospital now.

Perhaps I'm a little hypersensitive, I was a little shattered after reading the bbc headline. Sorry for posting without warning.

The word "dies" and "blood cloth" makes us go (coco-)nuts.
I think thats the point.

Don't worry Highwire, you did nothing wrong. Let's just all thank our lucky stars that Keith did not go the same way after his op (which I think may have been the point of Highwire's post) and send all our very strongest vibes for his swift recuperation to normal.

No he did nothing 'wrong'; but his headline is still editable.
