And also like your partner, Trixie is easily my favorite too, as she is by far the funniest and most talented of the bunch IMO. So this was a nearly perfect collaboration for me, and one that I had no idea was in the works. Thanks for sharing this and making me aware of it, and Trixie's new album!
Neat to hear they met at the Stampede as well! I have rather fond memories of it myself, having lived in Calgary for quite a few years as a kid. :)
Hah, thanks. I was born in BC, most of my blood relatives from both sides are still out West, and I have gone to visit them a few times since moving away when I was young. But the last time I was...
Hah, thanks. I was born in BC, most of my blood relatives from both sides are still out West, and I have gone to visit them a few times since moving away when I was young. But the last time I was out there was probably 14 years ago, and at this point I think I've actually been to Europe more times than back out West, which is kinda shameful to admit. :(
I think one of my cousin's in BC has her wedding coming up some time in the next year-ish though, once COVID isn't an issue anymore, so hopefully I will manage to take the opportunity to head out there for that.
Since we lived in/around both Vancouver and Calgary at various points, and had relatives living in the middle of, and on both sides of the Rockies, 10+ hour long road trips driving back and forth...
Since we lived in/around both Vancouver and Calgary at various points, and had relatives living in the middle of, and on both sides of the Rockies, 10+ hour long road trips driving back and forth through them with my family, visiting Radium and Fairmont hot springs, Invermere, Kimberley, Banff, etc. along the way, was a regularly occurring part of my childhood. And every time we have gone back out West since moving away, we have made sure to take a trip out to Banff at the very least. Last time, my father and I even went on a several days long horseback riding trek together there. So don't you worry, I will definitely make an effort to see some of the sights next time I'm out there too. ;)
FINE. Now just where did I put my rhinestoned white flag again? In all seriousness, Peck has been on my to-listen list for months now (I think as a result of one of your comments, actually), and...
Surrender yourself to the gay future of country.

I am absolutely delighted with this. I love Orville Peck; his music, his aesthetic, boi has it goin on. This combo is so great, I am so ready for the gay future of country.

It's been at least 30 years since my last Stampede. I really need to head back out West one of these days. :(
