cheers albs-not my favourite artist, but liked "Suzanne" and of course the man who penned "halleujah" (tho jeff buckley's version is the one I rate best). From the little I know of the dour Canadian, should be interesting :y

He is at the moment singing Hallelujah - a masterpiece imo, did Suzanne earlier in the set. One song had the lines -
"I fought the bottle
but I had to do it drunk
took my diamond to the pawn shop
but that dont make it junk"

A  very impressive poet. :y
