It’s June, and you know what that means – I haven’t a clue. From the Madison to various Fionn MacCools locations to Street Parties and Events for Kelseys and Joseph Brant Hospital it should be a great month with great tunes, with great audiences.

Glen Abbey Golf Course is one of Canada’s premier golf courses. I had the opportunity to perform to the members of this exclusive club as the golf season began.

The members requested the most random songs from the 60’s,70’s,80s, and I had the chance to perform ‘golfers’ favourite songs. Did you know Tiger Woods liked Huey Lewis and the News. Did you know that Arnold Palmer loved Jimmy Buffet? That makes sense.

This years Mother’s Day was particularly special as I performed songs directly from my 45″ Vinyl collection.

The songs were 67% all ‘female’ based apart from a selection of pretty direct Mother songs – like John Lennon’s ‘Mother’, and Pink Floyd’s ‘Mother’.

It did amaze me that some people in the audience did not know what I was holding in my hand. They thought it was a frisbee…but yes it was a 45 record (duh).

In any regard, Thank you Fionn MacCools Britania for all the song requests.
