Quebec and the Ryder Cup

So have played Brantford (birth place of the great one, that’s Wayne Gretzky not Jesus), Peterborough and earlier on today Wakefield in Quebec. Today’s show was a matinee starting at 4.30, which I though was going to be a bit of a bummer as the Ryder Cup would be reaching its climax at this time. However, as the audience filed in I sat on a pool table and watched the lads clinch their record breaking victory, though my punching of the air and exclamation of the simple word ‘yes’ scared a lot of people!It was a proud moment to see my friend Bernhard lifting that famous trophy..the gig was good too. The start was perfectly timed with my need to watch the golf, and it was a great surprise to have folk requesting songs in a part of the world I was visiting for the first time. Wakefield is a beautiful town and I was sorry we didn’t have more time to look around. After the show, Chris drove us to Montreal where I play tomorrow before we leave to go to the USA.
