Hi Mr. Cuddy,

I am a huge fan of yours and Blue Rodeo. I cannot remember how many times I have seen your shows, but I had to tell you something about the show you did last December on your birthday at Johnny B's in Whitby.

As I mentioned I have seen you perform countless times and the show in Whitby was especially poignant for me as you sang your song "Pull Me Through", you introduced the song by telling a story about your aunt and uncle. That night in Whitby was the first time I had been out for a night of fun since my mother passed in late October. It was a night with 3 of my girlfriends to get out and enjoy (which I always do when I see you perform). My parents were just shy of their 65th wedding anniversary and when you told the story of your family and then sang... you touched my very being as I understood so very well the lyrics of your song.

I just wanted to thank you for a lifetime memory.

I could go on forever about the lyrics to your music and how they have touched me but I am sure you have heard so many times how another favourite of mine "Bad Timing" got someone through a relationship's end.

Thank you for your time and thank you for your words and music.

Barbara
