Sober

Post by HurricaneBob »

Just want eveyone to know i am giving up the bottle, time has come after being late for the hoedown (Thanks Nate from Flame Sky for saving my butt) I had friday nite off and went out and became a complete @sshole! The canes are sick of it and im not helping by being a drunk. Some people can handle booze but im not one of them, jekyll and hyde is what i become. So sorry to anyone who has been around the drunken me! Just read my late night posts and you can tell.

It will be a long road but to lose the band i am in would be more devasting than a jail sentance that would surely happen if i dont stop.


Regret after a blackout is the worst....
Thanks for reading

Best wishes Bobby! Just the fact that you went "public" with this blows me away. You'll find sunshine now even on the cloudy days.

Way to go Bobby !!! I'm very impressed 1st of all that you are going to do it BUT also that the true musician comes out when a man realizes that his music , his pasion is far more important that his desire to party that man is a TRUE musician and deserves respect and my friend YOU HAVE MINE !!!
I'm glad I didn't have to fight in a war, I'm glad I didn't get killed or kill somebody, I hope my kids enjoy the same lack of manhood

Bob,

I've known you a long time & know the "real" you. I KNOW you can do it. Give me a call anytime if there's anything I can do.

Your Bro,

Sincerly thanks everyone...

I didnt think this would get response nor was i looking for any but its great to know you have buds supporting you. I envy peeps who can go have a couple beers and go home. Felix and Jeff are the same way, they dont get mean and are fun drinkers. I being german and irish, my family has had some deaths related to alchohol, had a cousin who actually drank himself into a coma, and my uncle died right at the dutch grille whie boozing.

Nuff about that but again thanks everyone and im glad i woke up!

Always best of luck to anyone trying to change for the better. I will pick up your extra drinks so there is no temptation! Seriously though best of luck. IT's so much better drumming sober!!
