Wow. just wow. Night before last, his wife went into sporadic contractions. After a little while, they settled down somewhat and got really far apart at midnight or 1am, so they thought it was false labor (her due date was the 24th)

Around 3, it became QUICKLY apparent that the real deal was happening so Mr. Geoff Reynolds escorted his lovely wife Jenny to the bathtub, rolled up his sleeves, and delivered William Charles Reynolds into the world while an ambulance was rushing to the scene.

Everybody's healthy and happy. I have a newfound respect for the soft hands of my favorite drummer.

Did he eat the placenta as a token of his victory?

Ok, now that last comment is kinda creepy there matt.

But otherwise, that's pretty cool what he did. Brave at least.

And ugh, I feel bad for her cause there's no way in hell I'd wanna give birth outside a hospital. oy

They don't come out that fast or shoot out that far, you know.

lol. I hear their heads are pretty fragile at birth, which is why I opted for the word "soft"

That's awesome. Best news of the day. I would be scared shitless to deliver a baby at home. Congrats!

you do know this means he will never be able to make a gig again, right?

Time to find a new drummer...
