Hey There Tim, Gidday to you, and an #MLTBuzzLuvGroovified  Welcome to you here !! Glad you’re  a member and enjoy all the offerings on here, and the Groovy Commaraderie amongst all the members here, as we’re  all Globally scattered but united with our enthusiasm  and appreciation for Team MLT and what their  music means for/to us,  for the individuals that they are, their creativity  and other gifts they were blessed bestowed  upon with ☮

PS.. I look forward  to more postings from you !

Being currently,  in my 50s, and was introduced to Beatles courtesy of my 2nd oldest brother back when when he was  in Grade 5 thanks in part to his cool Beatles fan Grade 5 teacher – “Mrs. S.”, while I was in Grade 2, made quite an impression on me, and he tended to like/prefer the later Beatles stuff as do I… we share similar  music tastes 😉 … I still vividly recall the assembly at night in school gym, for whatever the reason ( Xmas or some other special occasion to invite parents & families  out to school gym for an evening…) when the cool Beatles  fan of tgeGrade 5 teacher of my 2nd oldest brother ‘s class decided to have her  class  do an array of different Beatles songs to sing to the audience in gym… I can’t  recall if my Grade 2 class did something or not, I just recall the Beatles sing along vividly….guess that was more important to me, as 50 some yrs later, it still stands out in my memory ….lol????☮

And you’re  forgetting.?!?!?!?. Something else, … Maybe you’d like to meetup with me for a tea at a Tim Hortons, and take a photo of us both sporting our MLT hoodies and tee-shirt while you’d be in Ottawa….????????

[Jacki Hopper]

Yeppers, count me too, as in, having no clue about Tommy Emmanuel  either until it was discussed here or somewheres  by other MLT fans or Team MLT themselves….

#MLTBuzzLuvGroovified  indeed Jung????

[Jacki Hopper]

I love this, Thankyou for sharing Howard all…, this is right up my alley for unusual instruments, that I like and , would be willing to tackle to try to learn to play on or at least dabble around on….????

[Jacki Hopper]

And I continue on with writing poetry, rediscovering painting,  keeping up with drawing/doodling/sketching, doing other crafty things of interest to me, and baking more often of my nutfree things I can safely eat… but I have 2 NutFree Bakeries in Ottawa to which I can safely enjoy Nutfree treats from when the cravings for storebought hit????

[Jacki Hopper]

The same can be said for Ottawa, sometimes….lol… alot of times its gets overlooked on things, because to some  foljs, it gets monikers as being ” too political  of a town”, “Government  Town”, etc, while it is has so much to offer , see, do, and in it’s  surrounding towns, etc outside the Ottawa Region and over on the Quebec side.. ( one can literally walk, ride, drive their way over to the Quebec side,  courtesy  of downtown Ottawa…. or keep going further east of Ottawa in about 40 mins, you can arrive at the Quebec border there,  take a ferry over to Quebec or go west of Ottawa about a 50 min drive, take a ferry to Quebec side… ????????????)

I loved going on drives with Dad to places between Ottawa and Montreal,  Ottawa to Toronto )

Heck, I’ve enjoyed being a tourist in my own city, learn stuff I didnt know about and/or never got an opportunity  to see before now…

[Jacki Hopper]

I just can’t  ultimately  decide,  so I’ll make it simple… All Equally, in their own musical right from the sound, instrumentation, vocals, etc… ????????

Gidday Eh from Canada way Leif, nice to meet you, and an #MLTBuzzLuvGroovified Welcome to here, you’re  certainly going to enjoy all the offerings, the #MLTGroovy Comraderie,  etc. Been a fan of theirs  myself, for going on 14 yrs now, happily stumbled  them on YouTube  while looking for a decent Mamas and Papas song covers, and hit the almighty jackpot on their version of ” California  Dreamin”, thus lifetime hooked from then onwards… Thankyou for your interesting introduction and look forward to future inputs from you ☮

[Jacki Hopper]

I agree Bill, and true, you can hear the love and support  being given.

H. Tomas Fones: Glad you got the album  arrived to you so you can now fully enjoy !

[Jacki Hopper]

Yes, a fab and kudos are in order for the editing done on this album and I agree, we all feel like we were there experiencing it , (even though some members were there but for others, myself included,  it has offered the sentiment as though we were , not just in spirit but whole, and that to/for me is fine runing editing done at it’s  best????☮

Very pretty, reminds me of the Great Ice Storm of 1998… It occurred over Eastern part of USA, Ontario and Quebec… it was pretty to look at  but not pretty to hsvigate through and the hsvoc and grief it caused…  We had our first big winter snowfall the other day in Ottawa, most of since then melted and then some new light snowfall activity with mildish temperatures … Yo-yo Winter Temperatures  and Weather Effects going on …

[Jacki Hopper]

Hi Jeff  in Ottawa , it felt and looked more like a Spring day for Xmas Day, a green Xmas…lol..,then last night it snowed about 15 cm worth… go figure… Mother Nature is going through Nature Pause and needs her meds adjusted accordingly……lol????????

[Jacki Hopper]

Of course The Parliament Bldngs, especially  around Centre Block or by Eternal Flame with Jung and myself decked out in our #MLTBuzzLuvGroovified  Swag Wears, would be iconic and classic and epic Groovy….lol… perhaps, it will occur one day, would like that opportunity if it presented itself.   But right now and the last few yrs, Parliament  Bldngs,  currently Centre Block, closed down for major renovation…????????
