     I`m sorry to inform all...
     
     That my dear friend and soul brother, Dylan Roche, is going into emergency surgery tonight for a tumor on his brain. This news came to me today and I am in complete shock. Dylan, his wife Faith, and their one year old daughter, Jade, will need all the help they can get. A fund is being set up in his name.
     
     More info to come.
     
     Thanks,
     - Brant Bjork

   • Really sad news. And in the US they will have financial concerns as well. Makes me grateful for the NHS.

     Yeah there's a fund set up on low desert punk, can donate under the featured album, made a donation felt it was least could do.
     
     UPDATE:
     
     First off, thank you everyone who made a donation, offered kind words, and support. I'll pass it all on to Dylan and his family.
     
     They did not operate last night. The doctors are planning the best course of action.
     
     Thanks again,

     They operated on Dylan yesterday and removed the tumor.
     He's in good spirits and was even cracking jokes.
     
     Again, thank you everyone that donated. They moved Dylan
     to a hospital in the San Bernardino area (about an hour from Palm Springs)
     which makes it hard on his wife Faith having to commute back and forth.
     The donations are keeping his bills paid, fuel, baby food, etc.
     
     We're planning some benefit shows and cool things we can sell to
     keep Dylan and his family afloat during his recovery. I'll keep you
     posted on that.
     
     Thanks again, every little bit helps.
