Goddamn them all! Nothing like a kitchen party on the east coast of Canada. Seriously.
Comment by Walter November 25, 2009 @ 2:31 pmThere are so many profound things to say about this video. Beards. Whiskey. The one guy who seems to be out of place. (Kinda looks like he’s in a mid-nineties alternative band.)
Comment by josh November 25, 2009 @ 4:02 pmReally, so hard to listen to this and not get choked up a bit.
I can’t tell you how much I *still* miss going out to hear Stan and Garnet play in some tiny little club. My recollection is that a lot of us sang along when Barrett’s Privateers came around. I also have a fond memory of Stan just decimating (verbally) a drunk/heckler. You don’t mess with a guy who’s performed up in the Yukon!
