Old Dominion's lead singer Matt is near and dear to my heart.  He came to see us right before the pandemic and he and I instantly bonded over my dog Winnie.  He liked her so much he asked me if he could take her on the road with them.  I think you know how I answered that question:)

So, I was sad to see on his social media that he had to make a trip to the Emergency Room. He reportedly suffers from a broken rib, and a collapsed lung along with various scrapes and bruises.

He says he is home now with all the "fun pills" and advises us to get a helper if we choose to use a ladder. I am assuming a ladder fall is what caused the injuries.
