Stompin' Tom Connors playing "The hockey song" at Toronto's Horseshoe Tavern in 1973.
If you like nerdy music and Canadian history things, make sure to follow my account @Morgan_C_Ross
@Morgan_C_Ross Outstanding. When we heard at work that he'd died, we talked seriously about having a moment of silence. Then somebody joked that the man who wrote, "The girls are out to bingo, and the boys are gettin' stinko," would probably prefer that we go for a drink after work. We did.
@Morgan_C_Ross @tomforemancnn this is the best hockey song ever...lol
@Morgan_C_Ross @RexChapman Check out his song A Sudbury Saturday Night and Net Flix show Shoresy. True hockey, great city
@Morgan_C_Ross Legend has it, Tom got his Stompin name here in me home town of Peterborough Ontario at the White House bar...
@Morgan_C_Ross Classic footage, and song. But then I'm living in Tillsonburg where Stompin' Tom is a legend. 😁
@Morgan_C_Ross If you weren't raised with a little Stompin' Tom, you truly missed out!
@Morgan_C_Ross @RobertChaulk Legend. I still remember his tv show. I was just a kid of course.
