The performance of And So We Run was incredible! Hard to believe it was the first time! Thanks so much for playing it for us! It really made the night for me!

p.s. Everytime you do an acoustic show, it makes me wish you did it more often!

Yééééé!I have added the extra lyrics (versus first recording of And so we run)to my sheet of lyrics. You’ve changed the way when you sing and so we ruuuuun, lol! It’s smoother, lol. This video has brightened my evening. I am so excited for the release of your upcoming cd and hearing it on the radio and more concert fun. Wooo hoo! Keep up the good work!

XOXOX

Sounded great David! Being from the states, I know what it’s like dealing with the health care system. That’s one of the perks of me now living in Canada! I only hope Hillary Clinton gets a chance to put her plan into action. Go Hillary! Hope you guys are enjoying all that wonderful snow…hahaha!

It so amazing to be able to see the evolution of this song. It sounds really great! I love the new guitar and the keys and I can’t wait to hear how the album version compares to the acoustic one.

Have I mentioned I’m excited for the new album??? :)

That song was, by far, the high point of the evening for me. Sounded incredible and I, too, can’t wait to hear the album version!

Wow, it’s beautiful to hear it live. I really wish I could’ve been there to see it live, but now I am really anticipating the next show I get to attend, I can’t wait. It’s hard to believe only a few manths ago you were posting the first recording of it, and now you are performing it, things really are moving forward, soon the album will be out!

Just wanted to thank you for a great show at the Mod Club. You’re performance was amazing. Even a friend of mine who was there but not a big fan said she had a whole new respect for you and was impressed at how solid you’re voice is live.

Just in case Kevin ever reads these things, or perhaps someone talking to him could mention, but I just wanted to thank him for taking a moment to take a photo with us. He was there and gone so fast I don’t think I properly thanked him, but it was very sweet of him and much appreciated.

Yes, just like the others mentioned, my wife and me really enjoyed the show, actually the entire evening including having dinner at the restaurant just across the street prior to the shows, and the acoustic sets of the other bands were great also. Loved the new song David, excellent. First time at the Mod Club for us, the acoustics were great and the place is intimate which we love. Made my weekend, especially since when we got back to Hamilton, we had to do some shovelling and on Saturday too, love winter but this is enough!!
Thanks again for the great show.

Oops, forgot to add, yes, health care in Canada, for all that some people like to complain about wait times and that, is pretty decent. I had a disc operation on my back from a bad slipped disc, which, at the time, would have cost about $8000 in the US if I had no coverage. Here, I had it done and by a top neurosurgeon in the area, treated like a first class citizen even though I’m a nobody really. Sure, I got bumped a week because the neurosurgeon got busy with some emergency brain tumour cases but mine was hardly such an emergency and could wait no problem.
