Why I am off the tour this week.

Over the Christmas holidays both of my remaining grandmothers (one being a step-grandmother) were hospitalized. The step passed away Dec 26th about 4am. I went ahead and did RAW but with the wake and funeral being tonight and tomorrow respectively, I had to take the week off. I apologize to my fans that bought tickets to see me at the shows this week, and I hope you understand.

On a side note, her death was smoking related, so anyone reading this who has that habit please take my advice and quit. It’s a slow, ugly and painful way to die. Don’t put your family thru that.

We wish Gregory and his family the best as they cope with the sad news.
