FROM SOUNDS ASYLUM (MIDDLETOWN, NY, MUSIC VENUE)
Hey, Bernadette, aka Mother Ruckus, here. There have been lots of rumors and confused stories, so I thought I'd set everyone straight. Yes, SOUNDS ASYLUM is closing. Sorry I haven't announced this sooner, but I've been trying to hold on as long as I could. Truth is, my doctors &; kids want me to rest cause of my health problems. On Christmas Eve, I was delivering the last of the holiday packages from our BENEFIT show to a family & was hit head on by a truck & then was side swept on the driver's side by a woman who didn't want to be detained by an accident. Great news is I walked away from it, bad news is I had to have triple neck fusion surgery & have been in alot of pain. Nothing I can't handle. However, since that accident, (but not related to it), I found out I have a brain tumor, I'm having seizures & I have a thoracic aortic aneurism &; a floppy aneurism. The brain stuff is messing with my memory and making me do things I don't remember & has made running the business pretty hard for me. I have finally realized that I have to let Sounds go. This is one of the hardest things I have ever done because I love everything about SOUNDS ASYLUM but most of all, I love the hundreds of fantastic people I have met on this journey. We opened with the idea of giving musicians a place to call their own. A safe place young people could go to play &/or listen to music. A place where first timers could get their start on a stage. We accomplished that and I think we did a damn good job!! We've tried our hardest to b there for all of u. I personally stayed on to keep it going. But times have changed. I just want u to know that I'm sorry I can't do it anymore, that I wish u all the best, that u can call me any time with any ?s or concerns, & most of all, that I love each and every one of u!! As always, STAY COOL!!
Thanks-Stay Metal, Stay Brutal-\m/ -l-
