I am bringing this thread (which for me suffers badly from the duplicated postings with a variety of inaccurate posting attributions syndrome, and which was started by our stationmaster), back to the top once again as it is an interesting thread for the newbies around here and also to refer to the picture I displayed on 7 June 2004 showing a friend's 1967-ish Montreal based folk singing group

Taken at a Pirates and Prostitutes themed party
From the left my Montreal era friend Dave Moxey partly hidden (in Pirate headgear!), Rae, Dave Taggart, Peter Wright
Dave Taggart always reminded me of Dave Guard one of the original Kingston Trio
It was Pete Wright (newly arrived from Toronto where he had seen Gord at the Riverboat) who got us to see Gord on Sunday May 21st 1967 at The New Penelope Coffee House In Montreal


Dave subsequently bought a 12 string and very kindly lent me his 6 string to learn to "sort of" play guitar on.
I refound this thread on the old forum after I recently discovered that David Moxey was now in Australia

I went to Dave's s wedding in Marlborough UK in about 1982) and now know that he married a girl from Melbourne and as he has now retired they moved to Melbourne last year and he is having a house built in the suburb of Lower Plenty (no doubt a farm full of cows!!). I have phoned him and he is still a Lighthead (having received the box set for Christmas) (I have an old reel to reel tape with him rendering 'I'll Be Allright" that I now have on a CD so will be making an mp3 to pass on to him later) so I shall therefore try to put him in touch with the other fans I know of in Melbourne (Ron Peter and Mende we met up with last April)
I also noted that "our newest member" is "aussiejen", of course she might be an expatriate or might be yet another fan from down under, but there is no location information provided in her profile unfortunately and she has yet to post so perhaps she could now do so and tell us more so that we can welcome her into our friendly circle
