"EVILE Guitarist's Jaw Wired Shut for Two Weeks"

A few weeks on now and I'm slowly recovering. Lost some weight from the difficulty in eating, trying to get energy back as much as possible. The wound on my chin turned out to be infected, so got antibiotics on that. Went to the maxillofacial... thing at the hospital today (eventually got an appointment) and they've wired my jaw shut for two weeks. I was told this should have been done straight away (at A&E in Rotterdam) but it wasn't. It's apparently slightly too late for the wiring to work to full effect (?) but they've done it anyway. I look forward to more inability to consume food stuffs.

Please send all two-week silence jokes to my MySpace page. I allow everyone to laugh and/or call me 'Jaws

it might shut you up for 2 weeks..haha seriously get well soon matey:headbang:
 
I said I wanted to carry on. Maybe re-join the tour in the UK after recovery, but Matt advised against it, plus in hindsight I wouldn't have been able to anyway.

I was FUCKED.
 
I have a theory on what happened here.

As a man well educated in the ways of the guitar, I understand you appreciate many styles and players, and know much background about said styles and players. On the night in question, your brain realised that you were alone and within falling distance of a large body of water. It decided that that moment would be right to pay the ultimate tribute to Jeff Buckley.
