Thanks Sam, interesting monologue. I was a fan of his vocals and music for years. He seems like a decent guy.
Sad to see him injured. And also to see him so sad, knowing he can't play for a crowd again, even if his hands are working properly, because his target audience is over 60 and probably have all been coerced into taking the jab.
It sounds like Eric has fibromyalgia and/or autoimmune conditions. Fibro is less recognized and diagnosed in men by a large factor, but I believe part of that is because a lot of men go undiagnosed. It's associated with the condition he says he has (peripheral neuropathy). I have some combination of the above, as well, currently in partial remission. Stress, losing sleep, and overdoing things physically can set off a flare up. It's like a bunch of nasty viscous circles, insomnia, pain, anxiety, depression, and fatigue, all ramping each other up and keeping the whole thing going. I don't know how to cure it, but I know how to quiet it down.
And yeah, that's yet another reason I won't be taking the "vaccines". I don't want my pain back up at 8 or 9 out of 10 again, thankyouverymuch. I'm already barely hanging on at the level I'm at.
