About a week and a half ago, Paul, who fixes boats for some extra cash, had a hatch close on his left index finger. He lost most of the top of the finger as it was smashed under the heavy hatch. You might think, "whew! Good thing he's a righty," which would be true but he's also a guitarist in three bands. Those fingers on the left hand are very much needed. Paul will play again but it may not be for a long time. Oof. This puts our Ruth Buzzy plans on indefinite hold while Paul heals.

Friends of Paul are putting together a show at Martyrs' on September 11th (the least happy day of the year) with the proceeds going to help Paul with medical costs. Matt and I are enlisting an old friend Ryan to learn several RB songs on bass to play that show and the following one with you in Lansing later in the month. Beyond that, we don't know what's going to happen.
