Interesting. I didn't think Albertans would consider someone who was
born and raised in Vancouver, and who spent considerable time in
Toronto, as a 'local boy'. Maybe there's hope for me yet.

I believe he has lived in the Foothills of Alberta since the late 60's
or early 70's. I think that qualifies him as a local boy.
As a professional musician I am sure his work has taken him to many
cities. That said his roots are here in Alberta. This is where he
calls home.
I was spent my first 30 years in Vancouver. Despite that I am proud to
call myself an Albertan. Yup I was born in Vancouver, but today I
would not consider myself a Vancouver local.

Of course that should read "I spent".
I'd hate to upset our resident net nanny.

It was kind of a joke there Don. I know Ian's been in Alberta since the
70's. Of course, he was born in the 30's. As for me? I'm from wherever I
happen to be at the time.
