It’s always exciting to be on this stage.

Backstage at the Central Alberta Theatre in Red Deer, Alberta just before the show.

We had a blast playing at the Vic Juba Theatre in Lloydminster.

Margaret and Aurele Morrissette before the show in Camrose. Margaret is our brilliant and tireless Canada agent/promoter; Aurele is an equally tireless one-man tour support team. They hit it out of the park for us every time.

Onstage at the E A Rawlinson Centre for the Arts the last night of our Canadian tour.

An added bonus of this tour for us was partnering with local charities (Ronald McDonald House in Alberta, and individual hospice care centers in Saskatchewan) to fundraise by auctioning or raffling off guitars at the shows. Here’s Chuck signing one of the guitars for the raffle winner.

Paul really bonded with Slim during this tour.

We were taking some pictures after a show at the Flying E Ranch when they drove the horses past.
