Last night I attended a wonderful concert in support of Epilepsy here in Toronto. The gentleman performing; Jim Armstrong, himself is a person with epilepsy and has been thru some very challenging times; including brain surgery and temporary paralysis! After watching and listening to him perform last night all I can say is.... BOY is he talented! :D It was an amazing night of music, partying, laughter and interacting with a very sweet man :)
Jim has recently released his first solo album. He discusses the epilepsy and his new album "Mudtown" in this article/interview

He is really a wonderful performer and a very brave man and I truly feel honoured to have attended the show and met him 8)
