a brief explanation…
after two and a half years of the fantastic thrill seeking ride known as “doctor prescribed anti-anxiety and anti-depression medications” i have finally extricated myself from all six of them… my side effects included complete emotional flat lining, fear of everybody, sixty-two pound weight gain, complete loss of reality in any form and last but not least by any measurement known to man the complete loss of interest in my life… the neglect that joeyg’s has suffered due to my medically induced happiness can never be recovered however we managed to survive and for that i will be eternally grateful to the powers that be… in the next couple of days we will be updating the site to let you know all of the great things we have coming up and more of my heartfelt apologies to any customer, friend, employee or musician that has had to endure my medically prescribed hibernation… for the record if any of these so called “prescriptions for happiness” are truly helping you i suggest that you continue but if they are not run as fast as you can away from them, i am not a medical doctor so any choices you make should be done so intelligently… fell free to e-mail me personally @ joeyg@houseohits.com… stay tuned!
