4 cool things come to mind-

hanging out in the sacred alley (Gordon Lightfoot Avenue)

sharing laffs with Karen (didn't get to hear her stories)

john singing for an hour without any lyrics or cheat sheets

lastly, remember how the young fans were behind the stage on Fallon? well, I kept looking up and seeing different folks right behind us.. some real authentic Orillia characters... i mean, i guess that's what you would expect but they were just getting our stage monitor mix ...no lead or bass unless on the rebound from across the street ....maybe it sounded better than our mains

not sure if Bev was around for big hometown Day.. all are in TO now, eh?

i found a small image of a few of the locals that i spoke of... vintage fans
