little update.. with positive news on the Neil Young work:

canadaeast.com - Daniel Lanois says California motorcycle accident nearly killed him | Nick Patch, The Canadian Press - Breaking News, New Brunswick, Canada

TORONTO - Daniel Lanois says the motorcycle accident he endured last month in California nearly killed him.


The Hamilton-raised producer and artist tells The Canadian Press the crash left him with a fractured collarbone, pelvis and six broken ribs.


But he says the biggest problem he's facing now is internal bleeding, with the threat of blood pooling around his lungs.


He says he's been mobile again for the past 10 days, however, and has been overwhelmed by support from fans.


And even as he deals with a life-threatening injury, the Grammy winner has put himself back to work.


He says he's been busy producing Neil Young's next album, which he says might be some of the legendary Toronto-born rocker's best work yet.

The injuries sound horrible

Glad to hear he's doing better, is up and moving and going back to work

 

[lauramullen]

Wow. I hope he's doing better really soon.

That must have been some horrific accident and he is lucky to be alive. I hope he goes a bit easier on himself allowing himself to properly heal and not try to push himself to get back to work! The music can wait, it will always be there.....glad to hear he is recovering though.
