Town Hall Fred Eaglesmith Shows

The last two Fred Eaglesmith shows we attended have been at town halls. The Ailsa Craig show was at Ye Olde Town Hall and last Saturday night at the Plympton Town Hall.

Ye Olde show was the full band and rudely disrupted by some pissed up people who failed to shut the fuck up. Man, that pisses me off. Fred urged them to respect all the other people who paid and were there to listen. I was in a position to say something, but that never goes well. Next time (if there is one) it will be different.

The show at Plympton was solo with Tif Ginn and it was fantastic. They both played beautiful acoustic versions of favourites and new songs. The hall is very small and though they had a PA they did not need or use it much. They are playing very well together and we loved it.

I recorded a brief section of the show that includes the comedy of Fred and a new song, Twin City Minne. We got a lift to the show in friend Trucker's RV, that was fun and ended up the brunt of jokes by bith Tif and Fred.
