After some travels with my dad, some farming with my wife, and a road trip with the kids, I’ve found my computer again. It was under the cat. While she might not be happy about me typing on her bed, I’m pleased to announce some upcoming shows:

Tuesday July 25 – Barrie, The Songwriters Series at Donaleigh’s
Friday July 28 – Guelph, house concert at Cinnamon Cinema

Details and more dates are on the CONCERTS page. To make it up to the cat (she’s a big YouTuber with nine lives online), here’s a live video of “Again and Again”:

REMEMBRANCE DAY

standing beneath the cenotaph at Halifax
i heard the bugles on Remembrance Day
for the girls who went the distance from Victoria
and the boys who went marching from Saint John
oh Canada
do we know the price they paid?
Remembrance Day
Remembrance Day
Remembrance Day

if i shake the hand of every ancient soldier
if i wear a poppy and i bow my head
for the girls who were nurses from Regina
and the boys who bled their lives out for King George
oh Canada
am i worth the price they paid?
Remembrance Day
Remembrance Day
Remembrance Day
Remembrance Day

i stood below the holy ground at Vimy
trying to walk in someone else’s shoes
oh would i go the distance that Good Friday
to bleed my sweet life out in the mud
so far from home?
oh Canada
do we know the price they paid?
Remembrance Day
Remembrance Day
do i know the price you paid?
Remembrance Day
do i know the price you paid?
