A day late, but better late than never. I think the set lists are getting better as we move up the ladder.
1. Protest the Hero
“Sequoia Throne”
If you like your music metallic with a touch of big time screaming, then this song is made for you. Released in 2008, Protest the Hero cuts loose in all directions.

2. Spirit of the West
“Political”
A great song from 1987, Spirit of the West, and this song in particular, have always been part of personal soundtrack.
–
3. The Weakerthans
“Civil Twilight”
This Winnipeg band, formed in 1997 released this song, which became an inst-rant classic. Love this song.

4. Daniel Lanois
“The Maker”
Another entry from the great Daniel Lanois.

5. 5440
“Ocean Pearl”
A further entry from 5440. This piece of Canadian classic rock history still sounds as fresh as it did the first time I heard. Great song by a great sounding band.

Agreed. A pretty good set. What do you think of me splitting off the music to a different blog? Feedback us good.

I can understand the need for it, and think it’s a good idea, but I wonder if you’ll make yourself crazy managing multiple blogs.
As a reader of yours who looks forward to all your posts, I personally find it easier to have all your stuff in one place, but I don’t think I’ll have a problem following you across a few sites.
Are you also going to break off travel to its own site?

I am only considering the music. The original was supposed to be travel lol. I am now pondering travel/everything else on the original, while trying to maintain what I am doing now, just with a split. In transition, I’ll be reblogging the music to the original. The ADHD in me sees a need to tidy up and apply some focus. I see the going nuts part, so I don’t intend on doing more. I enjoy the music a lot, yet I think it is distracting to the other side, almost detrimental to me being me kind of.

Wow! Awesome! I couldn’t play #1 or #4 on my iPad, but I’ll get to them. These others I enjoyed immensely. I know Canada has some amazing groups, courtesy Lily’s husband, Paul. He’s turned me on to some great music.
Thanks for sharing these, John.
