Wandered off to digest this and ended up on your blog listening to “Losing Sight” again . . . several times. 
Bryan, your talent, and your humor,  will be greatly missed at GPN shows . . Halloween will never be the same for one thing !   But there is so much promise of things to come in your writing and your music that it is making this loss of one facet of your talent a little easier to  accept . . a happy/sad time.  
Be well,  and please continue sharing your talents with us.  May your next adventure be all that you want it to be and more.
