With help from the army of Radio Listeners, Medicine Show followers and Hub members we managed to crowdfund The Merican Moose Mobile and with the help of Alberta’s Folk Music Doyen Ruth Pures Smith, take her and the Merican Moose on a 60,000-mile road trip visiting and broadcasting from many musical hot spot venues and radio shows and musical cultural locations for the social media audience while introducing Ruth to her American support structure. The trip culminated at the iconic World Head Quarters at Threadgill’s in Austin for The Medicine Show-case day during SXSW
THIS IS WHAT RUTH HAS TO SAY ABOUT TRAVELLING IN THE MEDICINE SHOW RADIO MOOSE MOBILE
“ To step into The Moose with Rob Ellen is to step into Joy and Adventure. He is, indeed, The Medicine Man. Everywhere we went, he either found or had arranged for, a musical event. For instance, when we wound our way up the mountain roads to Stanley, Colorado to visit the illustrious Stanley Hotel, left to his own devices for a few moments, Rob was to be found in the Ballroom filming & interviewing a young man from Australia performing at the grand piano...or we would randomly pull off the Hwy in the middle of Tennessee at some little distillery that turned out to be a venue and a treasure. From Hank Williams" grave to Muscle Shoals, to Breaux Bridge, to Perkins & Guthrie & Tulsa & Oklahoma City, to Lukenbach, to Sun Studio, to Nashville, Memphis, New Orleans, Longmont & Stanley, Kansas City & Kansas, Lafayette, The Pig Trail of The Ozarks, TEXAS, and TEXAS, to Madison, Minnesota, Rob connected me with people & places that could fill a lifetime of playing music & resisting the agenda. I performed with Legends in Legendary venues. I saw and felt the Beauty that is in America & Her People. So much... I certainly can now book an EPIC stateside tour!! I may just sell everything that I don't need, & go Moosing into The Sunset... 'Life is sudden' is what my father used to say. Now is the BEST time to say YES to Life. Thank you, Medicine Man” !
