lol -- Wes. I LOVE the "glacial stare"!! Too bad you couldn't catch that on film! You know what they say about a picture being worth a thousand words -- although I must admit that your "two" words pretty much says it all.
One song he has done a lot off that album is "Knotty Pine", too. My mother, (by osmosis, I'm afraid) is a fan, too, but that is the ONLY song by Gord that she absolutely dislikes. She calls it "The Tree Song" and anyway it's become a form of a little private joke among us. But he hadn't done it in concert for awhile and I was taking her to a concert a few years ago and of course the subject of that song came up. I reassured her that, no, I was positive he wouldn't play it because he hadn't done it in years. Well, guess what the fourth song in the first set was!! She still hasn't let me live it down.
I like "Biscuit City", too, but my all-time favorites on that record are "Someone to Believe In" and "Romance." It was a little "off the beaten track" for him, but, then so was "Endless Wire" but it was a great album just the same.
Stay loose, eh?

"Love and maple syrup
go together like the
sticky winds of winter
when they meet....
If you go into the forest
Gaze up through the trees
The sky is white.
You can understand
What makes the forest
Greet the man
Like a mother's only
child ..."
