No more info as yet but hey are obviously hoping for a full recovery. He'd just finished the Bad Co UK tour last week.

Poor bloke. Wonder if the stress of the touring brought it on? 

impmann

Shit. Hope he recovers fully.

If it was treated quickly with clotbusting drugs he could well make a decent recovery. Strokes are unpredictable though: Larry Miller hasn't played at all since his one last year. Tony McPhee has made a reasonable recovery but his guitar skills are pretty knackered and he can't talk a great deal.

Best wishes to him.


As a related aside, has anyone heard anything lately about how Jerry Donahue is getting on?

WoW! that's sad news. My missus and her friend went to see Bad Company at Manchester last week with Richie Sambora & Orianthi on the bill, Her friends husband couldn't make it so she took my missus.....She bought me a Bad Company tour T-shirt though.

Sad news indeed, at least he's done better than poor old Boz who only just got to 61.

Best of health to Mick.

I have always loved his licks - especially from the 'Dudes' album onwards.. Hope he can get back to full health soon.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Oh bugger, fingers crossed he will recover. Poor Jerry Donahue may never play again, which is so so sad.

My band was booked to support Mick's blues band last night but it was obviously cancelled... We played down my local pub instead. Horrible thing to happen to a great guy. Get well soon Mick!

I hear Mick has been moved out of intensive care and is in a side ward now so hopefully things are looking positive.
