...and wherever they go There is light all around It's a beautiful sound...it's a brilliant sound - Rheostatics

Went to the Rheostatics show at Reflections last night. It was a really terrible turnout. I hope that doesn't dissuade them from returning to the east coast. Although Dave Bidini mentioned they may be back for Stan Rogers Festival in Canso. Fingers crossed.
Rheostatics played an excellent set though. Plenty of songs from the new album (unfortunately not Polar Bears and Trees which I was really hoping to hear) lots of the old greats like Saskatchewan, Aliens, Self Serve Gas Station, Feed Yourself, A Midwinter Night's Dream (dedicated to Bob Switzer) and Stolen Car (I love this song so much).
If I had the money I would be seeing them in Fredericton tonight. I could definitely watch these guys night after night for several shows. Maybe I should make plans to save up and go to the Fall Nationals at the Horseshoe in Toronto this year.

Y'all ever hung out with an ejit? uh-huh, yeah, you could say so. Like tonight? Uh-huh. That's right. At least the ejit's humble. Ugh. Goodnight.
