In 1970, Tom was locked up
on a trans-Canada private train for a week with the likes of Janis
Joplin, the Band, the Grateful Dead, Buddy Guy and more. "Best party I've
ever been to - hands down". The recent DVD release "Festival
Express", chronicles this infamous tour, with many classic
performances including a full-length video
of Tom singing "Child's Song." It's available in our
online store. |

Tom with U2's Bono |
When U2 performed on this year's Grammys®, as well as a recent Saturday Night Live, Bono was heard singing a bit of Tom Rush's "No Regrets." U2 has been performing it as part of their song "Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own." This version appears in their live sets, and also the live version of the song currently available on iTunes.
Bono talked about it in a Rolling Stone Interview: " 'I don't want you back/We'd only cry again/Say goodbye again' ... that just came into my head on Saturday Night Live. It was the first time I did it. It went through my head, and I sang it." |

Tom's wife, Renee (reneeaskins.com), has appeared on the David Letterman show discussing the paperback release of her book [Shadow Mountain : A Memoir of Wolves, a Woman, and the Wild (Anchor Books)]. Publisher's Weekly says "Naturalist Askins narrates what is both an autobiography and the story of one of America's most controversial conservation projects the reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone National Park... Askins accomplishes her task with fascinating anecdotes and insightful introspection... Those interested in wildlife, ecology and especially wolves will find this a delightful read." Read the complete review, excerpts from the book, or order the new paperback edition at Amazon.com.
