That's exactly why it's called ART.

Well I also hung on every word you wrote because I witnessed you living and loving Jeff Beck. I didn't have the same admiration for Jeff as you but I appreciate your knowledge and love of music in general. Well written Aron..I'm very glad you had this opportunity.

Good bands always start a little late I've been told.

Beck's here in my town tonight for a two night gig at Chicago's Park West Theater. Frank Zappa’s Band (drummer Vinnie Colaiuta), a jazz pianist (Jason Rebello), and an up-and-coming, 22-year-old bass-playing phenomenon (Tal Wilkenfeld) are backing him up and we know he will be cranking out some decibels as always.

Aron, you take care. We need to keep all the good guys as long as we can. We miss Cha here at the "G". Hope to see you in the future back in stride and full of life and laughs. God bless and all my love. Larry (aka Dr.Evil) Basinski at the Garden.

Keep up the work Aron.

I'm glad you are still around to master the 20 minute mile.
I enjoy reading your Blog, but it would also be nice if you threw us an audio from time to time.

I enjoyed meeting you in Nashville at the Bruce show.

Take Care of yourself and listen to your doctor!

Your friends and followers are glad you write about your recovery here, speaking at least for this one. Sorry the JOMC/Calliflower email got so out of control Sunday. For some it was Calliflower email that caused problems. For others it was my attempts to keep ppl informed. Thankfully, Calliflower has a pretty great PM that's really helping us with the Ajax glitches and I'm trying to get a handle on my own hyperness with keeping folks informed via email.

You were (silently) missed when we got to the music discussion of the 'cast, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who hopes you will decide to join us at some later date. You're always welcome and I believe you know where to find me if you ever decide that you do want a JOMC invite (assuming the show continues beyond next week, that is).

Whether you ever decide to join the JOMC conversation or not, I'll still be looking in on you here at Bitterman Circle. Yours is one podcast hubby-o-mine has ever taken an interest in listening to ...even beyond that! He's asked to hear more of them. That's SAYING something. I believe you have a few more here that will keep him happy enough. My guess is that when he asks and I expect to find none, you will have posted a new one.

Hope the sun is smiling on you when you get this!

I had the surgery in August. It's a weird thing.

Holy shit. I've been behind one reading blogs across the board and today wanted to make a point to catch up on all my friends blogs first and I came across this. Sure wasn't ready for what I read, but I'm glad to hear that you are doing ok and are on the mend.

My thoughts are with you. Take it easy and get better soon!

Holy cow, Aron. I'm glad you got through it okay. Make the most of your down time, if such a thing's possible.

I think I'll go take a walk. Merry Christmas!

Interesting point. Social media can put you in touch with other people suffering from 1)the same afflictions you have 2)worse afflictions, or 3)afflictions they think are worse but you know are not, which allows you to be a mentor. It takes you outside yourself, and allows you to do something besides become your illness. We totally love you in the Identi.ca/twittersphere, and if you need to talk and write, please do!

Squipper, glad to hear from you. What difference a day makes. I'm trying to do what they say. Kinda like herding cats...

Michael, I get the feeling that a story might come out of this. If I can't figure out how to record myself anymore, you'll be the first one I call!

Hey Aron,

I am glad you are still alive, friend! Please recover soon, do a bitterman circle episode and tell some metallica tour stories, or come on "someone's" show and tell them there.

Sending you positive vibes for a continued good recovery. Take your time and give yourself a break. You deserve it.

Thanks guys, it's turning out to be a very interesting ride so far.

So glad you're on the mend, and glad to get a glimpse behind the scenes of the Hetfield Machine. I haven't loved everything they've done, but I always admired their stalwart individuality. No one else is quite Metallica.

Hi Aron,

Are you really doing tech work for Metallica? That is amazing. Are you allowed to talk about it, or have you signed a million page document asking you to keep everything on the quiet?
