Great turn-out at The Molson Amphitheatre for the Great Lake Swimmers. Sharing the stage with Robert Plant is definitely a golden moment.

Awwwwwww, sad. I had a spanky little graphic that would have taken you to my Elliott BROOD slide show, but alas, there is no html allowed. You'll just have to swing by my page to see photos of EB on tour (+Phil K in Montreal). Find the photo of EB on the bridge and click it.
