He told me that he's planning to make a stage show out of his work-in-progress called "Near Life Experience." From what I have heard in an early mix made before his accident, these pieces have the magic. I call my listening experience a "Shock of Recognition," because I swore I'd heard the same beautiful music somewhere before, but when I checked my presumed prior art, it was completely different. The early mix was without the guitar, his strength. I really look forward to hearing it completed. From what I could tell, Kevin is back on his feet from a near death experience. He described the shock, pain and subsequent tribulations of being run over by a truck with an ironic humor and enough stoic detachment to show that we'll be seeing him again. Clearly he passed this test. Nothing will stop him now.
