Details: The Rheostatics, live @ the Horseshoe Tavern, Night #7 December 14, 2005. This was a very special night, it was Whale Music Night. And it was fantastic! The show starts off with a special introduction by Paul Quarrington, reading an excerpt from his classic novel "Whale Music". I can't think of a better way to start the night off than this. From there it only got better. On this night the Rheostatics were made up of 7 people, the usual suspects, plus Ford Pier on Keys (it appears that he's with them for the entire run of the Winter Nationals), legendary pedal steel player Lweis Melville, and what Whale Music would be complete without Dave Clark. For those keeping track thats 2 drummers in the band for this show! There were a few other guests as well, Brother Rick on "Guns" and Tannis Slimmon on "Palomar", there may have been more but I can't think of any right now. At the end of "Leagle Age Life" Dave C got up from the drums and pulled a slide whistle out of his pocket and proceeded to solo on it, Martin, not one to be shown up, ran off stage and grabbed a flute and came back to duel with Dave. This has to be a new alltime favortie concert moment for me. On Claire some of the band switched things up, Tim, Dave C, Lewis,and Martin kept to their normal rolls but Dave B played Drums, Mike played tamborine and Ford played bass. Dave Clark's mic wasn't working until "The Headless One". Edmund Fitzgerald was played in complete darkness for most of the song which added a nice ambience, towards the end blue lights were turned on. And if that wasn't a great way to end the show they played an firey rendition of Horses. I recorded this show from beside/infront of the speaker at the left side of the stage, I think this show sounds superb. At the beginning there are some level adjustments to bring Paul up a bit louder and then I bring the levels down again after he's done reading, which results in me playing with the levels druing "Self Serve" to get them right. There is a few seconds of talking from someone beside me at the beginning as well but after the 1st song I don't think there is much in the way of audience noise except for where it was required ie: Guns, Horses. The loud thud at the end of Claire is Dave B hitting his head while changing guitars. Song of Flight has lyrics from 2112. This is my favorite Rheostatics performance to date!
