Slight correction to Duke: The actual name of "Webster's" was THE WEBSTER. There is a song on my first CD, All the Good Times, that features two people who were very much on the Toronto scene at that time. I did not wish to name them because I was very upset when I wrote the song, but I did feel free to name the restaurant where the drama of our lives so often unfolded between two and six AM. Here's the passage: We'd sip coffee at the Webster Every night from two till dawn Scribbling one-act plays on napkins Now the playwright thrill is gone And the wedding we'd been planning When I left for overseas Just another bitter memory Now you're living your disease.
