Joel Plaskett was there . He braved the minus a million degrees and crossed the harbour on the ferry , in quiet sea smoke , heading for the Seahorse . Stove and Tommy too . Vic , of course . Cambo ,Steph . John Wesley . Claire . Radiant . Striking . Hugh and Chris Laing . On and on .
Trouble about recalling everybody is just that . All sorts .
Downtown on a Wednesday night in January is for the lucky . Stand on Argyle street , cozy and spacious and chatty and quiet . You hear talk about hockey and guitars , old concerts and this coming summer . Donstock 4 . 15 paid and a guest list as big . Man , that's life in Halifax in January . Flick yer butt in the gutter James Cook spat in .
Skank William's have rejuvenated my faith in a stage , and a guitar/banjo .
Al Tuck is downstairs asleep . It was a late one .

It was a fine show Davey and you should keep the cold - the voice sounded great! Not often anyone gets a crowd as cool as the one there that night in this town, freezing January mid-week night or not.

True Love Rules indeed...
