Places mentioned in the song are Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, Moosomin, Saskatchewan, Red Deer, Alberta, Terrace, British Columbia, Hanna, Alberta, Medicine Hat, Alberta, Saskatoon, and Hong Kong. The song was covered by Pearl Jam at the Credit Union Centre in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan on September 7, 2005 and then again on September 19, 2011 during their PJ20 Anniversary tour. Eddie Vedder admittedly messed up the lyrics to the song during the first run through of the song in the performance. In order to redeem the band and appeal to the Saskatoon crowd, the band played the song once more before the end of the concert. This time, they invited a fan from the crowd to sing the correct lyrics. Burton Cummings released "Running Back to Saskatoon" in October 2012 on the album ''Massey Hall recorded live in Toronto at Massey Hall'' backed by his band The Carpet Frogs. The album contains many Guess Who and solo hits from his career. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Runnin' Back to Saskatoon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
