It hasn't left my playlist since. Not a bad list though. Not my dream list by any means, but solid. See you in Edmonton.

Is there any chance any of this tour will be recorded (you have alluded to recording the acoustic Massey Hall show) and released on DVD (or CD) ? Maybe a hilight reeel of the entire tour, a song from each stop on the tour? See you next week in YHZ!! I'll buy 3 please............

Now my only problem? Navigating downtown Vancouver all on my own. This could get ugly. And I have to add that now that I get to go, I am happier than a clam and will love to hear anything Matthew Good has to play.

I've heard Apparitions acoustic at every show I've been to, and although I love it (and perform it myself), there are so many other tunes I've never heard before...OK, enough of my selfish ranting.
