Anyone think a cover of this Gordon Lightfoot track would be cool to hear at Wrigley? Kinda goes along with the message in Tremor Christ that the smallest oceans make big, big waves- was documented in 2010 that the ship sank due to waves and not crew error.

    5+ years later bump.

    Eddie, if you ever want to cover this, it would make a GREAT 10C annual single.

    What about Ed and Glen Hansard with Boom? I just think the song (musically, melody, nature/spirut) is more suited for the intimate nature of an Eddie solo show, but not one of the festival settings.
