This show was varied with lots of different sets that are explained below. Michelle and I were joined by Karen who was there but never got on the mike, On Sunday I'll be participating in the Terry Fox run to raise money for cancer research as part of Team CKMS: http://www.garryshow.com/teamckms.html If anyone would like to sponsor me it would be greatly appreciated. This week's show is very special as I'll be playing an interview I did last week with west coast artist Carolyn Mark, she is playing at the Jane Bond on Saturday night and I would recommend it for everyone. She has been a fixture on the west coast for the last 10 years playing her style of alt-country, she sounds similar to Neko Case with whom she has also recorded. I didn't want this to get lost in the shuffle, so I would like to announce the passing of a good friend a few weeks ago: the Tulane Restaurant. I was dropped off there after being driven back from Toronto August 12, and when I entered the restaurant I noticed it was very bare on the walls, after I ordered the waitress said she would have to see if they hadn't packed it up because they were closing the next day. I asked if they were closing for renovations, but she said that it was for good, apparantly the location is now so lucrative because of the big box stores that Wendy's is offering more money for the land than the Tulane could. I thought I might be the last customer ever, but according to the waitress there were some people coming for breakfast the next morning (however a menu did somehow slip into my bag before I left). I think I share many good memories with the people on this list strolling into the Tulane at any hour of the day for a bit to eat and it will be missed. As a side note I passed by the other day and there is nothing left but a hole in the ground. In honour of the restaurant I played the song by Jerry Jerry titled "Bad Luck at Tulane".
