I was crushed when I first hear the news about Mike, I've interviewed him and worked on many radio promotions with him over the years...however the news going forward is good:
Mike Ness from Social Distortion is opening up about his battle with tonsil cancer. During a recent interview, the singer gave an update on his progress, saying he's now completed radiation and six weeks of chemotherapy. He also said his voice is still weak, even when he just talks, and he has a lot of work to do in rehab before Social Distortion goes on tour in April. Ness learned of the cancer in June while the band was recording a new album, which will now be completed next year.
