As I mentioned the other day, we spent Earth Hour at The Last Chance Saloon in Owen Sound. In order to take part, they shut off all of the house lights, and left the stage lighting on. It wouldn’t have made a great performance if the musicians weren’t lit up! To make up for the stage lighting, they kept the house lights off for two hours instead of one.
All in all, it was a very good night. Jory Nash was a wonderful host, and the 12 acts provided a wide variety of entertainment. Justin was among the contenders for that final slot on the main stage at Summerfolk, he played a great three song set. Others who stood out were Brian Macmillan, a great solo guitar player, Beckon, a femme duo with backup in the form of a guitar and what looked like a djmebe drum, and Hard Ryde, a bluegrass band from… well, lots of places!
Hard Ryde earned themselves a well deserved spot on the main stage at Summerfolk this year. Can’t wait to see them there!
