(The LeBlanc Newsletter) April Wine lead singer Myles Goodwin is in a Montreal hospital for observation after collapsing on Nov. 28, 2008 at 8:45 AM at the airport there, and hitting his head, resulting in six stitches. He was transported to hospital by ambulance. Goodwin had complained earlier he wasn't feeling well. He had been heading to Halifax to headline a sold out Q104 Quarter Century Concert with Sam Roberts, Matt Mays & El Torpedo, and 54-40, honoring the 25th anniversary of Halifax radio station Q104. Joel Placket Emergency filled in their slot in the lineup.
Original April Wine members Ritchie. Jim, and David He-man were however, in attendance for April Wine's induction into Q104's Rock of the Atlantic Wall of Fame. The audience was shown early film footage of April Wine, including a home movie of the band's second practice and a clip from an early '70s TV appearance. - The LeBlanc Newsletter
