Editing Talk:Stu's Piecart

The rivercity diner was actually taken off the road in the late 90s or maybe as late as 2000/2001. I know because it got parked across the road from my old house and also there was nothing to eat on the way home along grey st except mcdonalds (as the song says).  - Geoff

The song was on the album released in 1998, and probably written well before that, so I'd say it was a different piecart, or vanished earlier than you think. -dan.

"Down at the rivercity diner, till a quarter past three"? They were definitely talking about the same piecart, and I'm sure I used to get chips from there at least until 1998/99. Maybe it got taken off the road, reinstated, and then taken off again? Or maybe it was longer ago than I thought...but it was certainly later than the "early nineties"; I wasn't getting hot chips from there at 3 a.m, pissed as a fart, at 14 years old (I was a goody-good) - Geoff

-I dont remember it after 1993, which was when the Riv closed.... but probably only because i wasnt hanging out in that area at 2 to 3 in the morning anymore! *shrug*

-On a slightly different topic... Im having trouble thinking of other songs that deserve to be in a "Notable Songs" section next to Stu's Piecart. I mean, Stu's Piecart has it all - it tells an important story in Hamilton's social history, which is tied into Hamilton music by being a popular stop after bands played at the Riv AND it has entered deep into the consciousness of everyone who has ever listened to it. I have trouble thinking of another Hamilton song that compares. Is Stu's Piecart the most important Hamilton song ever?
