Kim Mitchell is from Sarnia. I have relatives from there also.

Have any of you Canadian guys heard of a small band called "The Speds"? They play in and around southern Ontario bars, Windsor area as well as the Lake Erie Islands-Put In Bay & Kellys Islands.. My cousin lives in Harrow, Ontario and grew up on Pelee Island. She went to high school with a couple of the band members. I heard these guys play a couple of years ago at the Roundhouse on Put In Bay and they were incredible!! Very Good band!! They played alot of classic rock and did it very well, Journey, Rush, Uriah Heep, Boston etc...

Sorry to Hi Jack the thread here....

Rich

Got a phone call from Pete yesterday and he mention Jeff's passing. Way too talented to not hear from him more. Way too young to go!!! RIP Jeff!

Kim Mitchell.... Big time flashback. What was it.. '84, '85 when that song came out. Gosh, know I am starting to get geezer status with the music I grew up with.

I knew you guys would know of Jeff Healey but am surprised many non-Canadians would be into the Kim Mitchell/Max Webster stuff...amazing!.
Back in the 70's before Rush was well known we used to go see them play at the Oshawa Civic Center w/ Max Webster as their opening act...I think the group Wireless was up first if you've ever heard of them?.
Saw Webster and Mitchell alone at different venues over the years too...Muskoka's Key to Bala for one also the old arena in Minden Ontario when they reunited as Webster for a short bit...man that 'High Class in Borrowed Shoes' was a great tune!.

Bummed about Healey...hard to believe!.

~ Pete
