Home for a Rest
Spirit of the West
The spirits we drank now ghosts in the room
I'm knackered again, come on sleep take me soon

I step away from some campaign work today for tonight’s show at #TyrantStudios high above the Penthouse on Seymour. An all star group of locals past & present #HardRockMiners, #RealMcKenzies, #TownPants & #SpiritoftheWest for an all #Pogues set. A few tix released at the door!

#SpiritOfTheWest 'An Honest Gamble'
'You can't afford to spend much if haven't got a dime
So an honest gamble buys a dream on Lotto 6/49
When you've got two chances slim and none
The odds aren't in your favour. '

The Raven pub in Deep Cove; closed and for sale.
Queen’s Cross pub was the nicest of our mini Crawl.
The Troller; I suspect this one might not be exactly the location/venue same as described in the 1986 song.
Long time followers will know that I enjoy a deep joke that optimistically three of you (certainly in #Canada ) might get.
Last night we did a self-entertaining bit where we drove out to Horseshoe Bay to have a drink at the Troller before returning to Deep Cove […]

Every little thing with you and me had to be so political

I’m implementing a change for work tonight, and my shuffle brought me back to teen years at the Winnipeg Folk Festival, and this song. Which reminds me that this very hard period we are in is going to create some absolutely amazing art. #canadianmusic #spiritofthewest

Been a while since I wrote the editorial for Pulp Lit. Now I have #SpiritoftheWest stuck in my brain.
Another post for my Canadian friends. I had never heard of Spirit of the West before I saw them at the 1991 Winnipeg Folk Festival, but I became an instant fan. What a great live performance!

Home For A Rest
You'll have to excuse
me, I'm not at my best
I've been gone for a month,
I've been drunk since I left
These so-called vacations
will soon be my death
