From Bo Baber: Fingers has posted a letter about his current situation on the Warehouse Creek web site for his new album “Hi Fi Baby”:
Despite rumors of my recent demise, I’m happy to report that all is well. I’ve had some much needed time off these two weeks, after my break with Living Soul, my sincere apologize to everyone who came to recent shows expecting to see me play.
Frankly, the road got the road got the best of me, and I was tired, depressed and in poor health. Something had to give and it did.
