On April 8th, 2016 I saw Iron Maiden play Rexall Place in Edmonton with opening act The Raven Age.

Mike Plume Live in Edmonton March 19th 2026

  It was exactly a year ago to the day since the last time I saw Mike Plume play. Same room the Temple/Starlite Room. This would be my 28th time seeing Mike live, and as always I was really looking forward to the show. What made this one special was that a very good friend of mine (Chris) traveled from Vancouver specifically to see Mike in concert. I had turned him onto Mike's music about ten years ago, but Mike rarely plays in B.C. so my buddy made the trip here for the show. Not only did Chris come to the show with me but so did a bunch of other friends, Hurl, Cuz, Buzzard and Janis.

 On this night there was no opening act, just Mike solo doing two sets, which came out to two and half hours of Mike playing. He never disappoints, with about a hundred people in attendance, Mike put on a great show. His first set he did some songs that he doesn't perform to often, or not that I have seen and heard anyways. Songs like "Dance Ruby, Dance", "Sugar Maple Charcoal" and closing out his first set with "Me and Ern".

 The second set was full of great songs such as "So Long Stompin' Tom", "This Is Our Home (8:30 Newfoundland)", "I'm Your Huckleberry", "Perfume and Gasoline" and the best hockey song ever wrote "More Than A Game". He also did a good selection of songs from his 2018 album Born By The Radio, songs such as "My Old Friend", "Monroe's Mandolin", "Doing What Comes Naturally", "Long Long Line Of Fools",  and "Western Wind". Mike also did the Corb Lund song "Hard On Equipment (Tool For The Job)" which was actually co-written with Mike.

 All and all this was yet another awesome Mike Plume show, Mike sounded great, played great had his usual sense of humour and storytelling between songs. So much fun, there's a reason I have seen him as many times as I have, and yes, I'll be there again the next time he comes through town. Good times!!!
