John Michael Montgomery Checks Into Rehab

Wow! Here’s one I wouldn’t have seen coming: John Michael Montgomery has checked himself into rehab for substance abuse due to severe anxiety attacks and sleep disorder. The location of the center is unknown and he has canceled all concert dates for at least the next 30 days.
I had almost forgotten about his arrest in 2006 on alcohol, drugs and weapons charges. He ended up entering an Alford plea to the DUI charge, acknowledging there was sufficient evidence for a conviction.
John says “I will be disappearing for a while to try and defeat the demons that have stripped me of my energy of life and good health for so many years now. I assure you that however long it may take, I’m gonna fight to the end and come out stronger.”
He has a new album due out in September and says he will continue to work on his new single “If You Ever Went Away.” I wish him all the luck in the world!
