Definitely recommendedš“

A wonderful story/history with oh so many feelsā¯¤ļø¸ā€¨š”� I took my time & listened to many of their songs, on Spotify, throughout this read.š¤“

I think I would have enjoyed this more as an audiobook, only because I found it to be a bit dense & therefore a slog at times.

I'm posting one book per day from the ever growing unread stacks in my personal library. No description or explanation, just books I own and plan to read. #tbr

Day 75 (Audible edition) - yesterday's post, a bit late

mandarchy I am learning so much on litsy! I did not know that Strombo narrated audio books. So cool. 4y

CuriousG @mandarchy This is the only one I know of that Strombo has narrated, but hoping their are more out there as I love his voice! 4y

Signed book and beer haul from last night's event. It was a lot of fun, but way too short. Tears were shed, beer was drunk, my husband repeatedly called the author Sean, good times!

Craftylikefox Sounds like so much fun! 6y

Robothugs Love the bit about your husband š† 6y

AlaMich Sean?? š‚ 6y

TheKidUpstairs @Robothugs @AlaMich I was trying so hard not to laugh! How do you correct someone when you're right in front of the author?! Luckily, my husband has a good sense of humour and laughed at himself after. 6y

pick

A great book about the Hip that has been put together with great care (I love the author's note stating that the chapters can be read in any order) and consideration for its subjects. Now I am working my way through their catalogue to check out new gems and rediscover forgotten faves.

Anton This is a must read for me! The Hip are my favourite band of all time. 7y

rabbitprincess @Anton Hope you enjoy it! 7y

OF COURSE Gord Downie introduced himself as Maurice Duplessis š‚š‚

RaimeyGallant I miss him. 7y

RaimeyGallant At Folk Fest in Winnipeg in 2010, he was the only artist to acknowledge that there were a thousand protesters illegally detained in Toronto, and it made me cry, because it felt like no one believed me when I told them what I saw there, how the police shot at me. 7y

rabbitprincess @RaimeyGallant I'm so sorry that you had to experience that šŖ Gord was wonderful for deriving the most good out of his public profile to bring attention to issues that many overlook. 7y

RaimeyGallant Truth. :) 7y
