Hey Charlene,

It was a great show as usual. That Rick Mercer is one fine Canuck. Can you beleive that 500 Guitars. Im pretty sure he's had more than that in his lifetime.

There was a show on him a few years back, and he had this room, it was a vault. He was collecting Gretsch Guitars, and had over 300, in that room.

He was buying them everywhere, even contacted Mike Nesmith of the Monkees, to see where those great Gretsch Guitars were that they use on the show. And Mike told him they were all stolen.

Michael Nesmith

Amazing life he has for a kid who grew up in Winnipeg...
