Dave Gunning, telling a story about Stompin Tom

I decided to upload this video I recorded in the summer today after hearing the sad news. When I hear the thunder rollin', I'll know it's Tom up there stompin away :) Told by Dave Gunning http://www.davegunning.com/ RIP Tom :'( A Canadian Icon. Tom's note to his fans: "Hello friends, I want all my fans, past, present, or future, to know that without you, there would have not been any Stompin' Tom. It was a long hard bumpy road, but this great country kept me inspired with its beauty, character, and spirit, driving me to keep marching on and devoted to sing about its people and places that make Canada the greatest country in the world. I must now pass the torch, to all of you, to help keep the Maple Leaf flying high, and be the Patriot Canada needs now and in the future. I humbly thank you all, one last time, for allowing me in your homes, I hope I continue to bring a little bit of cheer into your lives from the work I have done. Sincerely, Your Friend always, Stompin' Tom Connors"
