THE CANADIAN TOUR


They'll let anybody in!
(not really)
It took quite a while to process Darlene's paperwork
Here she is at sunset, finally getting into Canada.


Drayton Valley, Alberta - sucked.


Brooks, Alberta - this one made the "Worst Gigs" list.
Ask Darlene about her salad sometime


...what a line!


Notice NO BANNER...they stole it! That sucked too.


Darlene with Oliver. The only cool person we met in Brooks
(and he was from out of town)


Red Deer, Alberta.
Owner Earl was one cool cat & treated us great


Crossroads Saloon in Calgary - finally a fun gig




Crazy Johnny attempts to touch his nose


...and then the girls try to touch their chin! One scary photo. Nightmares even.


Tim likey! oh ya!


Canada's best bartender, Michelle
She introduced the band to Cherry Whiskey Paralyzers - yeow!


At the Wild West Saloon - Edmonton, AB
Darlene with Country Music News columnist Bill Borgwardt


...and music lover John Ross


Maximum crowd - minimal fun


New Shackshaker friends who traveled a long way to see the show


Let's make it look like we're having fun...

High Level, Alberta - almost up at the NWT border.
This one did the band in - they packed up and left early.


Is this a high school dance or what?
(18 is the legal drinking age)


Painted Hand Casino - Yorkton, Sask.


The final Canadian show - Shawn's old hometown
Carlyle, Saskatchewan Centennial



Rockin' with Shawn's Grade 6 teacher - way to go Brian!


...with the ol' teachers



...and the ol' classmates


Shawn gets sent back to school - nope, didn't like it.


The Shackshakers return home to Minnesota...
and get a new banner. Thanks Brooks, AB!
