I moved to Toronto 35 years ago with the intention of buying a boat and going on an

ocean sailing adventure. In 1989 after a holiday in the Virgin Islands I bought an Alberg

37 which was a very suitable boat for the undertaking but it was not to be.

 Allison Prior sent this info from her site 'Bands in Newfoundland'. This is just some of the music happening around the Rock in the near future. Anyone who's touring this summer and would like their schedule on here please send it along and as always if you have material you'd like featured just send it along. Just got new releases from In Flight Safety, Rose Cousins, Ashley Condon , Thor Kristinsson and a bunch of stuff from Jerry Stamp who's on a real streak.

Subject: Hang out with your favorite bands this weekend...and beyond.

 I'm a big fan of Nfld guitarist Duane Andrews and was very fortunate to see him play with Cape Breton fiddler Duane Cote at the ECMA's in Sydney. These are two masterful musicians who obviously enjoy playing together. Their self-titled first album has just been released and they have a tour lined up in support of it. I'm including the itinerary and some info. This is a show to catch.
