Well (Canadian takes the podium),
I have been a fan of all things Canadian always. I'm a huge fan. I've seen them live more times than I can count. They did a special live show at Much Music here in Toronto (our version of MTV), and I was there. Had a staring contest with Jim Creegan and talked about what kinda subs we all had for dinner with Steve and Ed
.
I've been a fan so long I own their original demo. Only have 5 songs on it. Two sides, same songs on both. It'll cause problems when my brother gets married and moves out cause my father bought that tape for BOTH of us a LOOOOOOOOONG time ago. It'll cause some huge fights
!
I can't belive how huge they are now. Our mayor wouldn't let them play a concert at city hall (VERY OLD STORY) because of their 'offensive' name (LOL), and it was in the papers like you woudln't believe. Free publicity = unknown band getting a ton of interest, their popularity in Toronto was born. Took them 6 or so years to become popular over the border and now, well, they're not so home grown
