Thank you Saskamites · 20 August 07

Saturday morning Paul and I drove to Saskatoon Saskatchewan (after a hearty breakfast at the one and only Zuppa Cafe) to play a rock show at one of our mutually favourite Canadian venues – Lydia’s Pub. I am happy to report that the party-people of Saskatoon did not let us down. Two fine young fellas even bought us a beer and a shot before they knew we were in the band! How nice is that?
My favourite part of the show was when some girls near the front were kind of freaking-out about how pretty my accordion was. Then after the very next song the boys they were with seemed to be equally as excited about my Nike sport socks… so much so that Paul dedicated a song to my socks. Yeah… it was THAT kind of show.
I guess we were partly to blame for the craziness – many times during the show I was playing my accordion while Paul played his (flying-v-ish) Gibson Explorer. The slightly ironic combination did not go unnoticed. Yeah, it was also THAT kind of show… and by “THAT“ I mean “nerdy”.
