I can never remember if you're in Calgary or Edmonton or Regina. We're hosting this guy on June 6, but he'll be near you sooner than that. If you go and meet him (these folks are VERY accessible!), he might remember me from the show he did here last year. The guy's a workhorse though, shows virtually constantly. A fantastic act, though! Worth your time...

Hey Stetto, thanks for thinking of me......Edmonton (oil city) is home...
I'm not sure what kind of venue he is playing at, but I will definitely do my best to get tickets. Sounds like fun....
The Edmonton show is a "house concert"--same thing we do. Most folks have never heard of them, but once they go to one live music is never the same again.

It's that simple, too. Just call or email for info and reservations. We usually get around 30-40 people here, but have had over 60 for this guy;

But if you only take in one house concert in your life, this is the guy, and it looks like he'll be in your backyard on the 21st--

He'll be in mine on June 6 (In case any one was thinking of getting away)...
Well, I tried... I emailed them right away, but didn't hear back until a couple of days ago.....by that time I had so much work stacked up, I couldn't take any time off for personal enjoyment...
By all means, if something like that happens again, please let me know.....
Sorry you missed Jonathan. I will let you know any time I'm aware of a good performer near you. Usually once you get to one of these concerts they'll give you the opportunity to get on the email list and you'll be networked in.
