Wishing all the best for John Prine. A rare and wonderful talent -- a national treasure. Prine has given all of us so much great music so far. Stay strong, John.

I think we're going to start hearing of a lot of famous people getting sick. It's already started with Tom Hanks, Prince Charles, and some others.

Hopefully Prine recovers quickly.

Default Keep John Prine in your prayers - he is struggling with Covid19

Hi All. I am sure there are many John Prine fans around these parts. Keep him in your prayers, he is struggling with Covid19. Big fan here and sure hope he battles this and wins.

I just read John is in stable condition after being placed on a ventilator, as per his wife Fiona.
Keep those prayers coming.

Ugh, a vent. That is not good. Stats right now are that about 70% of COVID patients who get put on a vent don't make it.

Let's hope Mr. Prine beats the odds.

Default John Prine

I haven’t seen this anywhere else, so I thought I would post it here. Sad news indeed. Especially after all he has been through.

It's all over my FB accounts. There is some more recent news that Prine is stable (after being in critical condition this weekend).

He is on the mend, according to Mary Flower, who is holding a home concert on her Facebook page right now.

Shane Nicholson has written a song in the past day that kind of sums up the feelings of a lot of us.
