[bluenoserr]

Weird.

[tesserzz]

[angustus5]

[mjwestha]

Thanks for the Hali love from T.O.

[HauserWorks]

[angustus5]

Gord sounds good doing this tune...NS rocks

[zmutant]

He grew up in Lunnenburg, N.S and moved to Dartmouth, N.S later

[leilagaju]

I was there, and it was wicked. Sarah Harmer, Gordie Johnson and Ian from Thrush Hermit were also there last night. The horseshoe shows were awesome!!!

THIS SONG IS ABOUT HALIFAX!!!

Makes me feel really proud to be from here :)

[guy2film]

Dartmouth, actually. But cool enough.

[hotbbojbud]

he is saying kelona - plaskett is originlly from BC

[6663000]

Nope.

He was born here in Halifax, Nova Scotia and he still lives in Dartmouth.

[darreneedens]

what a mind blowing experience... I would have loved to see this live!

[kiskoooo]

why doesn't this happen in my life?

[Buyandsee]

Amazing man!! I never heard about this, such an amazing mix of Canadian talent

[blackfrancis55]

is it kelowna or toronto he says he hates? and obviously gord was being a politician on either one and changed the words. which was it though? sorry i'm dumb.

[wheely28]

kelowna

[lukiz31]

i love how joel can take anything and put it together and ad names of places in the middle of a song and gord what can we say about you two of canadas best musicans

[mikestrokes2]

man i was just sitting around pickin some random shit and i started playing this song.. its been a little wile but joels the shit and this is an awesome song

[starshollow]

Eff, and I was going to head up there for this show.

[gravyboat069]

It's momnets like this that make me proud to be a Canadian!

[tyso7540]

Man, that was such an awesome (week of) show(s). This was definately one of the most memorable moments. Personally my favourite was when the opening act came back out with guitars and mandolin in hand at the end of "Light of the Moon" at the Down at the Khyber show. Joel played with them, they played with Joel. Lucky bastards!

[InuvikPhil]

So much Canada in this video, I thought my computer was going to explode.

Amazing!!

[pollyethylene]

how drunk were the people here.. the constant yelling is a little annoying (well, on youtube at least.. could have been part of the atmosphere if you were there I guess)

[Heinekren]

If you were at a Joel show, and Gord himself jumped on stage, what would you do?

It wasn't that annoying at the time, but my little camera doesn't exactly do audio any favours.

[tyso7540]

@Heinekren I will attest not only to that the folks there were well liquored, but also that come on, Joel and Gord offer a once in a lifetime experience you can't help but enjoy. It was an excellent night.

[natperuvious]

i moved from the maritimes to Vancouver a year ago - and seeing this right here makes me cry. Joel Plaskett looks like my an old dear friend and the first time i met Gord i was down at Harbour Station. I miss my town. I miss my home. I gatta come home soon. And i love the verse about Kelowna. hehehehe

[tyso7540]

I was totally there. It was so awesome!

[mingusfan]

Wow, Joel Plaskett is awesome, but if I was him, and Gord Downie was on stage singing one of my songs with me, I'd be shitting my pants.

[50mission]

There's a reason why I love this clip.. awesome.. well done and fun...

[dickynights]

what night was this?

[Heinekren]

The La De Da night, Thursday.

[slackerint]

wow...

i wish this would have happened during the ashtray rock show i went to last night.

Still great though! and way to post it so quickly

[hipfans]

Excellent! Thanks for sharing...
