I am absolutely inspired by Mick Mars. I am a drummer and guitar player. I have a degenerative spinal disease. I am fused from my l4 to c2. I am held up by 4 rods bolted together surrounded my spine. Also a lot of metal in my neck. I know about playing in pain.
Thanks Mick for the example you are of a strong person that won’t be stopped by pain.
Also Neil Young.
