.

I sang some originals:

Bob From Nunavut, and
I'm Too Old (For the NHL).

Highlights: Bernie invited me to play harp in his set.
I invited myself to play harp in John's set (Copperhead Road),
Two harp players (Shan and myself) in the finale, and
"Blu Lemon", an instrumental blues/jazz/rock group.

DeGrassi Kids at Silver City: Fri. Sept. 8/23

.

Free viewing of "School's Out", followed by brief Q & A with Pat Mastroianni and Stacie Mistysyn. I sat in the 3rd row. Why did I not sit in the very front row, so that I could have reached out for a handshake just before they escaped out the side door?

The Light of the World (Schwartz/Schwartz),
This Wheel's On Fire (Dylan/Danko),
Eight Days a Week (Lennon/McCartney), and
