Saw Glen Campbell's Farewell Tour on Friday. His playing and singing were as great as ever. The only time I could tell he was having trouble was between songs, when he would fumble words or forgot his thoughts. Alzheimer’s is a bitch, but I'm glad he's touring one last time. He has two sons and his daughter in his band.

I've heard good things about this tour, glad you were able to go epresley.
He's coming this way in May, hope I can go.

That is great, T. ..much respect for Glen Campbell, his performance @ the Grammys was incredible.
I don't know much about Alzheimer’s, but I've heard staying mentally active is important, good
for him. It's so great that he has his children w/him.

C, I'm telling you, he was great and nearly moved me to tears a couple of times.

And he's already forgotten. LOL
