Default The man they call Reveen dead at 77

Never seen his show but I remember seeing the commercials and the song is still in my head. Also of course, the Trailer Park Boys reference! RIP

Amazing talent.

Probably chicanery but it was amazing chicanery.

I wonder if all his affairs were in order?


cool story time, I worked the Taboo Sex Show in Red Deer this past weekend and there was a dude that was a dead ringer for Reveen, hair and all.

I saw this guy at the Jubille when I was around 12 years old and it blew my mind. Great showman.

I had a Reveen poster I lifted from somewhere 15 years ago. Seems like he was a Stompin Tom-esque Canadian Icon.

I saw him in Penticton back in 1969. He was a brilliant entertainer, and from everything I've heard, a really good guy. Sad news.

This guy was awesome when I went to go see him about 20 years ago. One of my favorite shows I have ever been to. Nothing crude, sexual or profane at all. Good clean fun that anybody would enjoy. RIP.
