I mentioned a few days ago that I had a story-telling/squeezebox engagement at the annual Roselands Horticultural Society’s Awards dinner. Spicecat was kind enough to send me some pictures from the event, so below, that’s your humble servant, telling stories and squeezing out tunes on stage. For the ephemera buffs in the crowd, the logo on my engineer’s hat is from the Algoma Central Railway, also known simply as the ACR. The squeezebox I’m playing was made in Italy by Guerrini. It’s a triple row diatonic button accordion tuned to GCF. That means the reeds on the right side are set up like three diatonic harmonicas stacked on top of one another, the bottom one in G, the middle one in C and the top one in F. Of course I play across all three of the rows.
