Toronto ;

Two great nights at the Opera House and the end of ASHTRAY ROCK TOUR 07 leg one . Thanks to everyone for coming out and partying . Night two was filmed and , unlike some previous jittery celluloid forays , should represent the tour nicely ( even the 12 string chose night one to eff up ) after the miles of kilometres kneaded the band into a old faithful like space racket . Also , TIM ' Miniature Tim ' Stewart ascending the stage for LOVE THIS TOWN = Legendary .
Heaps of old pals in attendance ( Mike , Mark , Mike , Tom , Tom , Matt , Matt , LC , Steph , Buck , Allison , McGetts and DJ Maruna , Babs , Steve , Amanda , Cam , Jack , John Angus ,Colin , Stewart , Sherri and O' Connor ...on and on . And big mod props to Jeff Cohen and crew for the hospitality .
See you at Kingfest Festival , Friday June 22 . on a line up with Nova Scotia ex pats SLOAN and The TREWS ( a regular chip-eater's dream come true ) .

A rocking - as - ever night at the Starlight , made especially party city with the first ever guest appearance by Kelly ' Mr. Chill ' Hoppe . Ashtray Rock , Snowed In / Cruisin' and Maybe we should just go home never sounded so good .

Rama Lama ding dong .
