AUTUMN'S END Drummer Joey Kamka At Death's Door Following Motorcycle Accident

Desert Core Management's Andrew Cox has issued the following:
"On January 27th at 3 AM, AUTUMN'S END drummer Joe Kamka was hit by a drunk driver while on his motorcycle.Joey is in the fight for his life. The driver slammed his truck into the back of Joey which sent him flying into the windshield of the truck and then over it severing his brain stem, right ear and fracturing his skull.
The doctors told us that he wouldn't survive and that if he did he'd be paralyzed from the neck down. Within 12 hours of the accident and after hours of surgery Joey lay hooked up to a respirator and barely concise he started to move is hands and feet.
The doctors were speechless and unable to explain how he was doing this.
Joey is as tuff as the come. He is a machine. We know that he will pull through this and be back at his drum kit braking cymbals and snapping sticks like nothing had happened.
I ask all of you for you prayers and support. Please stop by the Autumn's End page and give a "Horns Up" for Joey, www.myspace.com/autumnsend ."
