I know i’m the thousandth person to say this but for fu€k sakes is 54•40 ever EvEr Underrated beyond words can possibly describe! I’ve seen them live 4-5 times in London,Chatham & Windsor & they never disappoint. I gotta say my favourite 54•40 gig was in Chatham at this small bar in which i forget the name of now & this was in the early 2000’s & that gig had a very cool vibe to it because it was 54•40’s last show for that tour so they were all tired of the travel but yet still had enough gas in the tank knowing it was their last gig before heading back home out west in beautiful Vancouver B.C. & lead singer/guitarist Neil Osborne was in a cheerful mood sharing a few old 54•40 stories & taking requests from fans because there were honestly no more than 60 fans at this small bar/restaurant in which a lot of us absolutely loved!! Anyways a lot of people say that RUSH & the Tragically Hip are the best Canadian rock bands but for myself “54•40” is at least in the top 3 if not top 5.
Curious, Who is the keyboard player, and what's the name of the last tune? Neither are listed. Amazing great show! I love these guys. Bought the Green album when it came out. Not sure about ending with "I Love R & R". Never dug that tune but it is fun. So happy 54 40 are making great music still. The lead guitar player killed it! Thanks!
It’s likely David Osborne - organ, saxophone, harmonica (2015-present). He’s a hell of a bar fly / lounge lizard piano man as well as a highly regarded live show producer and production specialist.
I finally got to see these guys at the Commodore earlier this year! I just saw them over the weekend at Golden Spike Days in Port Moody, BC. Always an awesome show with these guys! For me bucket list! I agree with some of the other comments that this band flies under the radar a bit. Can’t wait to see them again at the Commodore!
