Spirit of the West- And If Venice Is Sinking

Spirit of the West performed an outdoor concert with the National Arts Centre Orchestra on July 21, 2007 at Lebreton Flats Park in Ottawa. I captured one of the songs from that show, If Venice Is Sinking.

You gotta see these guys live! They're folkpunk. This civilized presentation doesn't even give a hint.

was just starting to watch battlestar galactica over again. he has the best omg-i'm-going-to-die face just before the cylons blow him up. i was so excited to see him in the show, then he blew up in the first episode. so sad.

Canada's most underrated band. For those who know, they're legends.

What a fantastic song, too bad most people know them for Home for a rest.

I wish I had a Tuba... :-)

Absolutely have to see these guys live! Likely the best workshop I have EVER seen at the Wpg Folk Fest was these guys and some Swedish Band. Together they did this song, along with a young girl they pulled up from the crowd. They converted a lot of people over to them that day.

This entire concert was free too. It was awesome!!! Beautiful night, the week after Bluesfest we get free concerts in the park!!

[MsBHoopingAllure]

Amazing band. What has happened to them? I would love to see them live.

[sawmonkey]

Yep.  Another Canadian band that never got their due...

@ttcccoles No he's quite straight. LOL  In fact this song was inspired by his honeymoon with his wife.
