Canada Thread

[rockcasbah]

Listening to Moe Koffman on Saturday Night Blues, enjoying Canada.

I snuck into Canada once. I thought the mosquitos were going to eat me.

Vinyl Tap is on right now.

There was a perfectly good Canada thread on the GB, but it was moved to politics....

 

[thør]

What makes for a good Canadian thread? I don't know if I saw it. I think all I've seen was people saying where they were from. But I'm not here often enough. I may have missed it. What shall we talk about?

There ya go.

I've been there several times but the only thing I really remember about Canada is reading a story once as a kid about some wild horses in Saskacthewan. Apparently Canada isn't a very memorable place.

 

[rockcasbah]

Today is Sunday, so Canada is closed.

 

[Brains_N_Boobs]

Not a huge fan. Big name dropper. Weird, eclectic music choices so I tune in on occasion.

lol That's the whole Idea of having Randy B. as the host...to tell his road stories and reminisce on the past history of Rock-N-Roll.

The Tragically Hip sucks and Nickleback are worse. Rush was technical masturbation, and Celine Dion looks like a bird with a broken beak.

I loved(?) In Cold Blood and Breakfast at Tiffany's.
I was in moon river a week or so ago. Now everytime I go by I'll think of you, Hepburn and Capote. Nice.

Randy does tend to self aggrandize a bit, but where else will you hear Bruce Cockburn singing in Huron?

 

[silver gurl]

Come Monday I have an inkling this will be literal at least here can't speak to the rest of the provinces.

We shutdown on the 25th until Jan 11. Rumour is that it will be longer.

So you are a Justin Bieber fan?

I like the Hip and have a ton of respect for Gord Downy entertaining, while missing 3/4ths of his brain due to a tumour. But yeah, a lot of their music is based on Canadian history.

 

[rockcasbah]

Gord was a great guy to have beers with.

I never had a beer with Gord, Valdy on the other hand...

 

[rockcasbah]

I've never met Geddy, but used to work with Alex Lifeson on the White Ribbon benefit concerts.

Oxford University says provinces with faster, tighter lockdowns have done the best job in limiting the spread.

 

[Champakian]

Then why doesn't it work with states?

According to the Oxford research, it’s a combination of swift action by governments, how the measures are enacted and the level of cooperation of the citizens.
