As I do from time to time, I've been thinking about my home town quite a bit lately. It's funny how places can get their hooks into you. Even after having moved many times, Winnipeg will always be home to me. I miss the sky out there, my friends and family, burgers from Blondies, even the winter. And I miss its great arts/music scene. And since these are in my head, they might as well be in yours...
My friend Greg MacPherson. One of the great things about knowing an artist well is the privilege to see the evolution of the art. Back in the late 90s Greg released an album with a track called 'Genuinely Frozen' that had a line '...get out from under these broken dreams outside.' Fast forward a few years and his shows usually featured a jam in the middle where he just riffed on that line for a while. Fast forward again to 2010 and the fully formed track 'Broken Dreams'. Sadly no youtube version available without wonky levels.

What could be more Winnipeg than the Weakerthans invoking curling? Love the stubbies.
Normally at this point I'd jump straight to Neil Young, but since I'm still bummed out about his show being cancelled here last week, I'll throw in some of his buddies from back in the day. The Guess Who.
It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

Since I'm in an Allman Brothers mood tonight, here's two of my favorites. Dicky Betts is just a beast. He's an old man now in his seventies but still tours and can still knock the tar out of anyone on lead guitar.
