Dave White Takes Over The Pub

Back in high school I remember a couple of my buddies started a band, Maybe Fog. Weird name right? Well it was a great band playing traditional irish mixed with Tragicly Hip and Our Lady Peace songs among others. Unfortunately Maybe Fog disbanded and went their separate ways. David White was the lead singer in Maybe Fog and still plays thoroughly in pubs and clubs around St. John's every week. Playing a mix of cover songs from The Hip to Steve Earle to Great Big Sea and everything in between. Some people may heckle him and want him to play ACDC, asking Dave to play ACDC is equivalent to saying " play Free Bird ". Its refreshing to hear a guy do these songs with great justice and its no wonder why he has such a lengthy career in playing around great pubs in St. John's. Last night Dave honored us with his presence at Walkham's Pub in downtown Bonavsita. Even though unfortunately not a lot of people showed up to support local talent, maybe because of the not so nice night that it was? Who knows? But even so Dave played as if the place was packed and he was singing to a full house, the sign of a true performer. Everyone that witnessed the show was impressed to say the least, a couple people even got up on stage and sang along with dave on a couple songs, it drawled a good laugh to say the least and everyone left satisfied with a smile on their face and a belly full of booze. Next weekend however at Walkhams Pub Dave will be back again but this time bringing along a partner, Carl Peters, who has played before numerous times with Dave in around St. John's and as well as Walkhams Pub. Hopefully next weekend we will have nicer weather and show some support to local musician's, they play their heart out for little so lets give them a lot. I for one will be there with ears wide open, enjoying every minute as I did last night. Great show!
