Over a backdrop of Wurlitzer guitar, organs and the occassional flourish of trumpet and trombone, Hayden’s cracked Jeff Teedy-esque vocals reveal sad stories of Northern Ontario while an uptempo rhythm guitar places him above and beyond his navel-gazing peers. Some credit for tone must go to producer Howie Beck, whose most recent album sounded like Elvis Costello meets the Beach Boys. While Hayden has worked alone for the past eleven years, Beck’s contribu- tions lend many of the break-up songs a toe-tapping, jukebox appeal. It takes a special talent to sing about “filling a room with sadness,” in a voice which suggests a smile on the musician’s face. Hayden may be pissed-off and beaten, but he’s too wry to simply be sad. A third of the album has a pronounced country and western feel. Backed up on several tracks by members of Oshawa’s Cuff the Duke, saloon ballads like Never “Lonely” are given a kick in the torn denim pants thanks to steel guitars, keyboard and trombone.

Cuddy, Keelor, Donovan and Cripps have all released solo albums, and Glenn Milchem performs his own solo music under the pseudonym "the swallows". I love being in that space of writing songs so I just keep writing them. On songs like the excellent Waiting For the World, Sheba, Arizona, In My Bones, the fragile soulfulness of the best country- folk shines through as acoustic guitars, pedal steels and violins pluck at your heartstrings.

  • Llh.:I 9T Jaqwai\ON- 6 Jaqwaaon I Ot-6H WEEKLY DISPATCH
    Photo: John Packman 139-10 I November 9- November 16 FREE llH.:I 9t Jaqwai\ON- 6 JaqwaAON I Ot-6H WEEKLY DISPATCH This week has been the most important week of the year for the student movement. From November 4 t~ to lOtb , Mike Tipping, VP Education and I are in Ottawa at our federal lobby group, the Canadian Alliance of Student Association's (CASA) annual Lobby Conference. For the week, the eighteen member schools of CASA as well as eight provincial partners and five observer schools are meeting with over 140 members of Parliament, the Senate, and senior bureaucrats. This is the third consecutive year that this conference has taken place and in the past two days we have seen the benefits of this consistent pressure for changes to the post secondary education system in Canada . For the first time, members of the Bloc have expressed support for a Pan-Canadian Accord and dedicated transfer. This is a huge step for a party dedicated to ensuring special deals for Quebec on any Pan­ Canadian issue. We have also seen the New Democratic Party agree that the money that the Canadian Millennium Scholarship Foundation provides to students must stay in the system, and that the Foundation is probably the most efficient way to deliver that money directly to students. This again is an example of what CASA has been able to do to shift the policies of a party. The NDP has consistently denounced the foundation since its inception . Tuesday saw the culmination of CASA's media stunt . The picture below shows a map of Canada made up of the paper feet that students across the country have been signing since September.
