Now in retirement due to Early Onset Alzheimer’s Disease, John was also an accomplished actor who could be seen on episodic television and movies often pretending to be an assassin, ghost, devil, redneck, spy, and other characters in contrast to his real life persona as vegetarian peacenik. List of both big & small screen appearances as well as starring roles in live theatre far too numerous to mention here. It’s ridiculously long – We’re not sure how he fit us in. Solo albums include ‘Acoustic Kitty’ & ‘December Looms’, and more recently ‘The Waiting Room.’ His uniquely powerful voice and exuberant performing style was central to the band’s sound and concert presence.
