Hello dearest readers,
I write to you from a beautiful home in Qualicum Beach that sits along the ever so powerful Pacific ocean. It is quiet here, a place where all of the inhabitants are pals and say hello to each other on the street.
We arrived Wednesday evening after a long day of travel from Kamloops. As we pulled into town, we passed two girls in bathing suits hitchhiking their way to the beach. In that moment, I knew that this was the place for me.
Last night, we played a show in the Qualicum Beach Community Hall with a few other artists in a fundraising effort to elect NDP Barry Davis. The hall was packed and it was great to play for more than 3 people. I also met the legendary folk singer, Bob Bossin. He had some great songs and brilliant stage presence. He also told me stories about my hero John Hartford. Back in the day they played some shows together and became friendly. It seems that everywhere in my travels, there is something or someone that has been influenced or acquainted with Hartford's spirit. I think it's a sign...
Today we are of to the Vancouver Island Music Festival in Courtenay. Excited and thrilled to be a part of it. A little nervous.
Anyways,
That's all for now,
B
