I read a book about Mike May, who was blinded during an accident as a toddler and who regained sight as an adult. It's a pretty great read: http://www.amazon.com/Crashing-Through-Story-Adventure-Dared/dp/1400063353

I don't like reading about this because music isn't about listening to something just once and forming an opinion. Good music is something to keep listening to- to understand the nuance, to enhance a mood, etc etc. I would've rejected so much music in my life if I only gave it one shot. Plus her feedback is too rudimentary (obviously).

I think I saw that photo in 2008...
