100th Coffee House honours Butler, Moran LEAMINGTON — It was a night of great local music and recognizing those who have been ‘instrumental’ in bringing the Dale’s Friday Coffee House to 100 shows. Justin Latam and The Stride hosted the 100th edition of the popular local music showcase that was started by Dale Butler a dozen years ago.
While Dale wasn’t there in person, he did Facetime with Bank Theatre sound engineer and good friend John Moran on stage, where those in the audience could be part of the conversation. John had just accepted an award on behalf of Dale for his dedication to the performing arts in Leamington.
John explained that Dale is away visiting his grandchildren, and then was surprised with an honour of his own as regular performer Denis Bastarache brought Moran on stage to present an award to him. “He’s put his whole heart and soul into this community and his family,” said Bastarache.
Moran was truly taken by surprise. “You got me,” he said. “I’m speechless, can you believe that? I’m just amazed. I wasn’t expecting this. Thank you so much.” It was a full slate of music and storytelling as performers and organizers were able to reminisce about past Coffee House events and how they’ve benefited the community. The Friday Coffee House is held once a month at The Bank Theatre.
John Moran has a video chat with Dale Butler while on stage.
