"Antarctic 1949, Weddel Sea, waiting for ice barrier to break. 180 miles to South Pole."

Nice Indy music. Buy on bandcamp by @davidmarsden
"Every song needs a pulse 📷. Every moment needs a heartbeat. Shimble’s rhythm keeping time with a generation’s hopes and fears, 1996.
The beat lives on: Re:Creation 🥁"

Same!
Add Nickelback, Rush, basically all ProgRock, for me.
I was a New Wave sort, some punk vibes, basically early #CFNY with #DavidMarsden at the helm.
If you know, you know.
Neil Young, he can throw it down forever, the man is a #Canadian icon. 🎶🖤
