We’re off tomorrow to see Stuart McLean and the Vinyl Cafe, the CBC radio show which is on its spring tour through western Canada. The surprise is that five tickets, together, were still available when I decided to call on Tuesday evening (having determined that the kids’ theater rehearsal had been canceled). I had bought tickets last August for the Christmas show in Edmonton, which Tom, his mother, and the kids attended.
Also on the tour are The Good Lovelies, who found out on the tour bus this week that they’ve been nominated for a Juno, the Canadian version of a Grammy.
We’re all looking forward to the concert, and to listening to The Vinyl Cafe on the radio as usual on Sunday at noon before heading out to hear it live. Twice in one day, and live to boot!

Lucky lucky you!
Enjoy (what else can you possibly do??)
Oh what a laugh! I tried to get my parents tickets when they were here but the tickets were over $100 each. I hope you got a better deal than that.
Have fun!
Have a wonderful time!! We’ve taken the kids to see A Prairie Home Companion and Wait! Wait! Don’t Tell Me and had a blast. It’s pretty novel these days to be able to enjoy a live radio performance. Probably even more novel to be interested in such a thing in the first place. : )
