9 comments on “Canadian Bands Survey”
I want to say that “By Divine Right” are a power pop band in the style of Blink 182, but I think that’s Not By Choice ..
Gob is a punk band from somewhere out West (where supposed to play at Snow Jam, but than Sept. 11th happened, and they couldn’t get here .. too bad ..).
I wish I didn’t know who Avril Lavigne is ..
Liveonrelease, are a girl band from out West on Biff’s own record label. I happen to be quite enamored with them at the moment, but I like girl bands that rock, so you know 🙂 . They had a minor hit with “I’m Afraid of Brittany Spears” a couple years back. New album is better.
Dude, Stompin’ Tom Connors does the hockey song! It’s .. not a great song, but it’s the hockey song! (“The good ole hockey game, is the best game you can name, the best game you can name, is the good ole hockey game ..”).
Delerium are Canadian? Way cool .. all the best music is made by Canadians : )
lol I know who Gob, Tom, Avril and the others are, I just don’t know if I like them much or not.
Delerium is half Canadian. Conjure One is that Canadian half.
Whoops! I figured out had to know who Arvil was since it feels like she’s everywhere right now.
took the survey and posted it… in doing so i noticed a few surprises as far as your dislikes go… even so… we have very similar taste as always
Yeah, we sure do have similar tastes. It’s rather nice to have a great friend who also happens to have great taste in music
I love Martina Sorbara.
So do my friends Sascha and Wanda… I missed seeing her live to go backstage during Edgefest but I think I’ll go to her next concert in Halifax.
martina is my favorite female singer at the moment,,, I think more people should love her
Martina has got to be my favourite female singer of all time. and She is GREAT live 🙂
