Johnny doesn't normally do personal messages to people he likes and admires (Yes except for Neko Case but we already know this)

But Johnny just found out a guy who gave him the opportunity to work for a first rate company with first rate minds and more importantly first rate people some 5 years ago is not going to lead us anymore. This fine feller, 'J' is moving on and Johnny for one will miss him. He was always a step ahead in the new media and social media game. While Johnny was telling people blogs were the new pet rocks, "j" was all over them and creating ones that won corporate PR awards aplenty. The very fact there IS a Jersey City Desk can be traced to him. So we're gonna play a going away song for "J" as we wish him the best in his new world he'll certainly conquer. (The email telling of his departure mentioned the song 'Freebird' but Johnny doesn't like that song so we're gonna go off the board here for our tribute.

Maybe Corndaddy can one day cover this but that lazy drummer is gonna have to wise up and be more Charlie Watts and less Keith Moon.
