I met "Big John" Voit just about four months ago. At the time, I didn't realize how short his time would be.
He was a talented musician, and regaled me with stories of people and places I wish I'd shared with him.
Like many of us professional musicians, he did not have the health or life insurance that comes with working for larger companies in the corporte world.
I'm hosting a benefit for John Sunday 12/5 at the Minnesota Music Cafe.
Over the coming days I will add more thoughts on John. I hope you will find it in your heart to come out for the benefit honoring his memory...and dig deep to share a few coins with his family during these sorrow-filld difficult times.
Peace,
