Pat and Karen Lynne Frencham perform some of the new songs from the month long tour. 'The Rush', 'Everyone was Right' 'Who are These People?" for the sacked Eden Cannery workers and "One Lullaby" have been the result of some extensive co writing with Karen. Pat who has not traditionally written with other people says, "I think there is something in the way Karen approaches a song that has given me permission, I suppose, to come to the writing process in a more gentle and sensitive way. I guess my songs have always had a harder edge and I know there's are lot of people who prefer that; particularly among my folk following; but I think within a body of work; something of the romantic is always necessary...Perhaps it's Karen's heavily Country Music background but she really does understand the emotional nature of those kind of songs and after so much social comment and political material it has been liberating to write some of that stuff. Besides.... she's has such an angelic voice, she's an irresistable vehicle for any songwriter and a fantastic friend as well "
