Junk Mail June 1, 2006

Hello All: As you may have already gathered, the band is taking most of the summer off from the road and concentrating on recording the new CD, which we will have out sometime in 2007. We do have some news, however. We want to let everyone know we’re going to have a very special Cowboy Junkies Train Trip from November 10 to 14, 2006. We’re chartering a train from Toronto to Vancouver, we’ve invited along some of our favourite bands (Skydiggers, Blackie and the Rodeo Kings, Over the Rhine and Fred Eaglesmith), and it should be an amazing trip. Here’s the setting: A tiny stage, dim lights, the clink of glasses and the hush of conversation gone silent; the first dreamy notes as musicians plug in… you’re on a train across Canada with Cowboy Junkies and friends. Three days and nights of music on board the last great long-distance streamline train still operating in North America - Via Rail’s legendary CANADIAN from Toronto to Vancouver.

That’s all for now. Have a great summer. We’ll see you soon. Margo, Michael, Pete and Alan (Cowboy Junkies)
