By Susan’ Knutson

Over 200 people gathered
at the Castle Theatre Sat-
urday night, to hear Vancou-
ver's folk poet laureate,
singer and songwriter, Fer-
ron. The concert was spon-
sored by the Castlegar and
District Arts Council.

Ferron, originally from
Richmond, B.C., has been
called tho. best

Images came to hte in the
darkness, late nights at a
24-hour restaurant, . writing
songs in bed wearin;
p.j’s, the trip that day from
Vancouver, through snow-
storms and changing wea-
ther.

When, at one point in the
first song, Ferron forgot the

words, the audience burst
into

working in Canada today.

The concert set at the
Castle Theatre was simple.
Ferron appeared unan-
nounced in front of the cur-
tain with her guitar, two
mikes, two speakers and a
mixing board which she
operated herself.

the acoustics, she said,
were “incredible,” the sound
carrying well but with a dis-
tinct echo, The echo faded
from notice, however, as
Ferron opened with "Light of
My Light." The audience
joined in on the chorus and a
rapport was established

* which remained unbroken for
the next two delicious hours. _

see the highway, where are
the words?” she . quipped,
“there we were in a magic
moment and I blew it.” She
produced some rather weird
sound effects with the ampli-
fier and announced that she
would have “driven 12 hours
for this.” “Do you really want
to know me this well?” she
demanded. The audience
cheered.

Ferron talked about the
time she wrote “Who Loses,”
one of her earliest songs and
my favorite on

I couldn't see further than
my shoes.” Fifty-seven. dol-
lara in a roll of bills appeured
before her, allowing her to go
on,

the audience roared with:

laughter and self-recognition

A Game,” her song about
gestalt therapy. “I recognize,

Ferron told how she wrote it
after envisioning a native

with her. It is a frozen image
of a person falling. “After I
