Rick, ya mean you don't think it's goofy that the man in the moon is a Newfie? :-)

I guess I thought Stompin' Tom was kinda fun when I was a little kid, watching his show on the CBC(?) in motel rooms across Canada from Manitoba to British Columbia one summer, when my family went along with my Dad on a research trip to various archives and Indian reservations.

But maybe it was just the thrill of being in a different country for the first time. Haven't listened to him since the mid-70s to be honest. My tastes what they are now, I might well find the Man in the Moon song a little grating. But it was fun then.
