10/20/07 – Old Fire Hall, RosslandWhat’s better – to throw a banana peel in a garbage can or to throw a banana peel on the side of the road? I really want to know. It seems to me that putting it in a bin just means it will end up in a plastic bag at the landfill. (more…)

10/19/07 – Minstrel Café, Kelowna

10/16/07 – Talkin Donkey, Vernon

10/12/07 – Langham, Kaslo
