As I posted in the Lounge Saturday -- https://democraticunderground.com/10181674319 -- the Earring's founder/guitarist/songwriter/vocalist, George Kooymans, did a radio interview Saturday morning, his first interview since being diagnosed with ALS in late 2020. The Earring disbanded early last year, since he could no longer do concerts, but now he can no longer play guitar. He still wants to write music, but he has trouble using a computer as well. He talked about software that might let him write using eye movements. He said he's still seizing every day. ALS is a terrible disease to have to fight, but he's fighting it bravely.

They were such a great band.

Just noticed the video's description also has the track list, with the times.

58:23 Slow down

1. I had this video on loop for a few hours last night, and although I was away

from the screen at times taking care of some after-dinner chores, I'd come back to the laptop to watch at times, especially for bits like George's solo in "Twilight Zone," starting about 46:45.

Love watching him play guitar.

Hate that he can no longer play.

As I posted in a new reply this morning in the Lounge topic I linked to in the OP, George's latest album, a collaboration with American guitarist Frank Carillo that was released just a few days ago, did make it into the Top 10 in the Netherlands, at least on some charts I checked. I posted a couple of videos of his music with Carillo there, too.
