Why Should I Go?
If you don't know Corin or haven't heard of him I can personally vouch for the fact that you will absolutely enjoy this show. Corin not only writes great songs but also captivates the audience with the (often funny) stories behind his songs. Corin may very well still be celebrating the Juno nomination for his album Hobo Jungle Fever Dreams, as well as sharing some songs as yet unrecorded. “Corin Raymond is a storyteller who by the end of the night you’ll have known your whole life.” – The Globe and Mail.
I would argue that on any list of "Most Canadian" things to do, skating outdoors on some frozen body of water should definitely be included. From the famous Rideau Canal in Ottawa, to countless frozen ponds from coast to coast, the image of Canadian winters almost always includes an image of someone skating and often playing hockey. Of course this is an image that for many Canadians is simply a romantic ideal and the truth of the matter is that (especially with the mild winter we've been experiencing this year) most skating takes place in a very controlled environment: an arena, a rink, a skating path. I found an exception to this here in Hamilton!
