Paul Pigat plays "Hartland" by Tolen McNeil, opening for Los Furios

Paul has explained to me in an email that the song was "written by Tolen McNeil, who is a roofer on Vancouver Island; we used to play together with Carolyn Mark" in a band that he told the audience was called the Metronome Cowboys. "He wrote that driving home from the Heartland Dump, so that entire song took him about 30 minutes. He walked in the door and played it to me off the top of his head. Beautiful and infuriating!" (or as Paul put it from the stage, "I love him and I hate him for it" (he also said it only took Tolen 20 minutes to write... makes it sound more impressive!). Great song...
