Democracy and Dissent at Cafe Deux Soleils
Thursday, July 31st, 2008Many thanks to everyone who came out to see me play at Cafe Deux Soleils last night! It was great to make some music and see faces, familiar and new, nodding along.
There is truly never a dull moment on The Drive. Midway through the first set, a scuffle broke out in the audience, bringing the show to a temporary halt. It was tense for a while, and no one knew what the Angry Guy would do next, though he did eventually leave. The cops showed up a few minutes later to keep him away, when one of the staff spied him in the back alley with a “big stick”.
In the end, though, it was a lot of fun, and definitely memorable for my first Vancouver show!
The audience got involved, picking their favorite of three songs by Ron Sexsmith, The Zombies, and Tom Waits respectively. Their votes decided which song will launch my new Cover Of The Month feature. Check back here tomorrow to hear the winning song, and to download a free mp3!
