Whiskey Jack's "other" musical entity is Doogie and Dun (aka Douglas John Cameron and Duncan Fremlin). These two giants (5 feet, 7 and one half inches) in the Canadian music community are the voices of our Stories & Songs of Stompin' Tom Show.
On November 28, 2021 at 2:00 PM, they will be streaming an afternoon of songs from their personal, Christmas and Stompin' Tom catalogues. This will be filmed at The Redwood Theatre, an historic Toronto vaudeville palace built in the 1920's. The setting couldn't be better.
We'll welcome a small studio audience of invited guests but the general public can enjoy the show from their big screen TV or their computer.

Whiskey Jack Presents Stories & Songs of Stompin' Tom
Gravenhurst Opera House, 295 Muskoka Road S, Gravenhurst, On
This will be our second appearance at this storied theatre and we are bringing Canadian actor/author/comedian/singer Sean Cullen with us. “Stompin’ Tom’s Canada Meets Sean Cullen’s Comedy” is a playful, funny, very musical and all Canadian show starring one of Stompin’ Tom’s favourite touring bands, Whiskey Jack. Sean and the band have presented their onstage antics numerous times over the years and will be on tour again in 2020.
Duncan Fremlin and his show “Whiskey Jack Presents Stories & Songs of Stompin’ Tom” first invited comedian, author, actor and singer Sean Cullen to join them at their very first concert in 2014. As Sean stepped onto the stage that night, he told the audience that Tom had written songs about potatoes, tomatoes and tobacco but sadly, not one about what many consider to be Canada’s national food, poutine. Within minutes and with the band providing the soundtrack, I Love Poutine was created, on stage, in front of hundreds of hungry fans. It brought the house down!
Whiskey Jack’s 25 years on stage and in the studio with Stompin’ Tom form the heart and soul of this show, now in its 7th year. Each night, Duncan and his all star musicians, including 5 time Canadian National Fiddle Champion, Randy Morrison and 2 time Juno nominee, Douglas John Cameron, captivate the fans by singing all the hits (The Hockey Song, Bud the Spud and more) and sharing stories of the private, backstage world of Stompin’ Tom. And yes, these are the outrageous tales that made him the legendary iconic hero to the entire country.

It's been a long time since we visited the welcoming home of Peter and Marlene Chitty. In the world of "house concerts", this is the gold standard. Great seating, PA, excellent location and the most welcoming hosts you can imagine. This will be like your very own private Stompin' Tom show. Order in advance the suggested donation of $25.

Whiskey Jack Presents Stories & Songs of Stompin' Tom
The College of Piping and Celtic Performing Arts, 619 Water St., Summerside, PEI C1N 4H8
PEI is the home province, the motherland if you will, of all things Stompin' Tom and we're scheduled to visit there on May 8, 2020. Whenever we visited the island with Tom, it was always a special time. There was lots of socializing which left Whiskey Jack with lots of free time to explore the island. On one of our tours, we stopped in Ottawa on July 1 to play the Parliament Hill Canada Day celebration in front of hundreds of thousands of flag waving Canadians....this video contains some of that footage. We hope you can attend the show on May 8, 2020. For more details, go to our website, www. HelloOutThere.ca Check out the promo video: https://youtu.be/CM82FCOxOxI
Whiskey Jack Presents Stories & Songs of Stompin' Tom
Saint John Public House, 32 Grannan St., Saint John, NB E2L1E3
We're very excited to be bringing our show, Stories & Songs of Stompin' Tom to the birthplace of the man himself, Saint John New Brunswick. If you've never been to a Stompin' Tom show, you're in for a rip-roarin' good time. We performed many shows with Tom and guarantee to honour his approach to entertaining...unpredictable, playful and super fun. We'll play the hits with our all star band of seasoned Canadian country music performers.
$25 advance, $30 at the door.
Tom was born on February 9, 1936 so April 16 is a bit late to call this the 7th Annual Stompin' Tom Birthday Celebration but that's what it's going to be. Our special guest this year will be Canadian Country Music star, Marie Bottrell. Marie has been an international country music star her entire life...8 Juno nominations, Hall of Fame, awards too numerous to mention. Joining Marie on our guest list is Murray Foster from Great Big Sea. Murray fills the stage with his voice, wit and charm. The show will once again be aired on AM740 and 96.7FM and streamed to the internet on Robbie Lane's nightly radio program. Here's Marie singing with us at our 2019 Idea City show at Koerner Hall. https://youtu.be/WXV59ZwbAH0
