The Lucknow Sentinel, 2015-08-26, Page 7Playing Rock'n'RoII Music for the Soul & for Charity Fred Eaglesmith Travelling Show Submitted "The performance hark- ens back to the '60s and '70s variety shows on TV. It's gonna be music, jokes, com- edy. Sounds like 1966. It was a really cool time in music." One of the few remaining full-time travelling rock'n'roll productions, The Fred Eaglesmith Show brings its original comedy - infused show to a series of intimate Bruce County venues. After 30 years of per- forming across the USA, Canada and Europe - hav- ing his songs covered by some of the biggest names in country music and even appearing on "The Late Show" with David Letter- man - the enigmatic Eaglesmith said he's happy to come home to Ontario. The September shows are pretty much in Fred's back yard, easy drives from home after a steady cross North America tour. Eaglesmith wants fans to know he will make each stop a "world- class show:' "The older I get, the more I go on, I'm really happy to take my place as an ... entertainer. I like being that guy." Most shows feature a Charity Pie Auction, with Eaglesmith's effortlessly delivered auctioneer chant. The band raises money for many charities including Operation Smile, which helps treat facial deformi- ties such as cleft palates in third world countries. Donations have topped $47,000 so far. Despite international acclaim and a first-rate show, you're more likely to see Eaglesmith and his band play to 150 fans in a rural community hall ver- sus a large theatre. Like- wise, it's more probable to hear about his next show via a stenciled roadside sign, simple B&W posters or the FredHead grape- vine - and to find Fred sleeping in his old bus in a parking lot over a 5 -star hotel. The Fred Eaglesmith Show complete rock'n'roll show of original music and jokes. Advance tickets $25 at www.fredeaglesmith. com, 519-583-3878. $30 at the door.

Lucknow fall fair facts Pumpkins, pumpkins, pumpkins Pat Livingston So, if this year's fair theme includes the word "pumpkins" what do you think might be featured in various categories at the fair? Right! Pumpkins! In the fruit and vegetables class I spotted category seven which is for 2 pie pumpkins; in the flower specials class, you can use flowers and pumpkins as a centerpiece, or design an arrangement in a pump- kin or squash; in the baking class, you can enter pumpkin fudge (I've got to taste that one), pumpkin loaf with nuts, pumpkin pie or pumpkin cookies. Check out the fair book and maybe you can find more pumpkin ideas ... I'm sure there was something in the sewing class.
