Thanks to a wonderful, enthusiastic sell-out crowd at The Bushpilots Last Waltz show last night we raised $3706.50 for the Ottawa Food Bank! Thanks for their amazing guest appearances ... Scott Allen Amey, Lefty McRighty, Drew Nelson, Kelly Prescott, Slim Reaper, Amanda Rheaume, Shawn Tavenier, Johnny Vegas and Al G Wood ... always a fantastic experience to revisit with old musical friends and make awesome new ones! Performing at events with great musicians like this crew always creates long lasting bonds with some really amazing people. The Cripple Creek Horns: Zeek Gross and Ian Hassell; impeccable as always ... thanks for slumming it with a three chord wonder like me ... your skills always leave me in awe. Small Black Dog, for performing mop up detail with their super tight post Last Waltz set. Those who stuck around got a real treat ... Check these boys out the next time they pop up at your favourite musical haunt. Thanks to Wendy Daniels and Pete Marier from Boom 99.7 for the MCing job ... hopefully they are taking their Sunday to reboot their internal clocks to get back to their morning show routine ... Thanks to Danny, Stacie and Jesse Sivyer at the Rainbow Bistro for allowing the BPs to host our annual Xmas soiree for eleven straight years ... may you run for another thirty years ... we cant imagine the Ottawa music scene without you! Also huge thanks to venerable all purpose Rainbow guy Terry for working the door and the most patient soundguy on the planet, Joe Racette. Huge thanks to our sponsors, John Cooke and Servicemaster Ottawa, Mark Monahan and RBC Ottawa Bluesfest, and Steam Whistle Brewing Thanks to Louise Squish Boulet, Maureen Hogan and Lyn Bennett, the X-Ms angels for their rocking raffle ticket selling skills! Most of all ... thanks to my bandmates in the BPs for putting up with all my crap and helping to see this thing through ... Jeff Monette, Kevin Smith, Tom Pechloff and Glen Russell ... lets start recording that new album now.
