17

I like taking pictures of construction/de-construction. It reveals the change that is going around us all the time. Where I live here in Guelph they have demolished most of the hockey arena called `Memorial Gardens'. in the foreground you can still see the flat area where a goal net used to be. They are saving a stone wall to add to the new architecture which will be an extension of a new city hall. The numbers where seating used to be is still visible....especially 17. One of my songs on my CD is called `17'. When I was young I saw many bands perform in this place, along with hockey games. Some of the Canadian Bands I saw perform here and other spots in Guelph were, April Wine, Edward Bear (and the New Potatoes), Thundermug, David Clayton Thomas, Brutis, Crowbar, Lighthouse, Copperpenny, A Foot in Cold Water, Max Webster, Rush, Rain, Nash the Slash, Aarron Space, Lee Ashford, Fludd,Thor and the Imps, Jean Luke Ponte, and many others.
