Wait… “DURING?!” How is that even possible?!
I learned today that you can be fully awake during a brain surgery, and it’s apparently to avoid any major damage. This man who underwent a full surgery did something completely badass to pass the time.
The surgery happened in Miami, and he brought along his guitar to play while surgeons removed a tumor in his head. According to this article from NME, he played System Of A Down and Deftones tunes on his guitar while the tumor was actively being removed.
NME also says, “music-playing during brain surgery isn’t limited to guitar. So long as the activity doesn’t increase pressure in the head, patients can play music during the operation.” Read more HERE.
