      I'm American too, but growing up, my family and I used to go camping with a trailer on Prince Edward Island, or P.E.I. for short, and we did it every summer until I was a bit more half grown for their own reasons, and we did go in my final year of high school, but it wasn't our trailer, it was a cabin, well my parents in the next few years, they'll have a motorhome, and when I plan time off of work, the three of us, my mom, my dad, and I will go to P.E.I. again, just for old times sake, get back in that kind of groove we used to be in after so many years, but in a different style, and all that kind of camping we did then made my dad interested in this music, which then got me interested too. R.I.P. Tom.

    I saw Leonard Cohen in concert in 2013, in his intro to Tower of Song he referenced "Those we have recently lost in the tower of song, Rita, Stompin' Tom and now George Jones", I never would have guessed Leaonard Cohen was a fan.

      Fortunately, I looked "Older" and managed to meet him while 'A Minor" but I'll deliberately MISSPELL IT: "A MINER" as STOMPIN' TOM Loved to support and Encourage our Hard-Working CDNs especially, Our Valued YOUTH!
      He's GREATLY Missed!!!!

      @@jeffreybarkin3177 hi there. I managed a Brewers Retail Store in Toronto in those days. We went from 21 to 18, which was a disaster, and back up to 19 to try and get it out of the high schools. Of course, every 18 year old knows a 19 year old, so the "remedy" was pretty much a joke. The 19s used to roll in and fill the car with 2-4s for their friends/customers. Typical regulatory bollocks.
