Jeremiah,My name is Keith and I work at J.’s label in europe and am also a friend of his. J. and the band had an auto accident yesterday evening in Sweden on their way to Germany. They were cut off on the highway while doing 70 mph, skidded off the highway and the van fell and slid on it’s side. Luckily, an ambulance was right behind them(!) and they recieved quick medical attention.
J. got the worst of it. He has two broken vertebrae in his back but the prognosis is that he should be fine. He is lying in the hospital in Halmstad and when I spoke to him, his spirits were okay. He even had me check his email to see if his bid on an Incredible String Band record on ebay was the highest! If he’s thinking of things like this, I think he’s gonna be okay.He will probably fly home from Sweden tomorrow. The rest of the guys escaped miraculously with only cuts and bruises.
Obviously, the rest of the Euro-tour is cancelled. Just thought you and your readers should hear the news.
Best regards,
Keith Nealy

I am still in shock but this is definatly good news!
