heric - You have a better handle on the history of Vancouver than I do, thats for sure. I do know the Atlantic Trap & Gill because I used to join friends there on St. Paddy's day.

Bob the P. - I have photographs of Sonnie Terry and Brownie McGhee that I took in Seattle (probably around the same time). Ornette Coleman used to play in Vancouver every once in awhile and I think he still does.
