I am a music guy, first and foremost. By a long ways. For distractions after that I enjoy physical recreation, followed by movies with television pulling in at a distant last place. I have no prime time shows that I watch. I do not have cable or satellite. If I watch any early evening tv with any regularity at all, it is sports (baseball in general or MN TWolves basketball). The one show I do try to catch if I'm at home evenings is Late Night with Conan O'Brien. He has been planning a Toronto stint for his NY based show for awhile now. Looks like things are coming together for what will be a great spin on the only show I watch. So now Conan is trying to figure out which guests to book. See this webpage:

C'mon, hipbasers!! Any suggestions?

Well, I believe this is a forum wide suggestion, but why not Gord Downie. Obviously Gord would shy away from such an opportunity, and I don't believe he, or any other members of the Hip, have been on a late night show, but its still a suggestion.

If I had a choice, I would want to put on some of the lesser known people...get their name out there. My choices would be:

Well The Watchmen first...if they weren't breaking up..then:

1) Holly McNarland
2) Dayna Manning
3) Jann Arden
4) Tara McLean
5) Sarah Harmer


Obviously The Hip would be amazing....but I think these smaller time people would be great also! :thumb: and of course Sarah McLachlan

My picks for Canadian talent that needs more exposure to American audiences, other than Go®d:

1) Blue Rodeo
2) Gordie Johnson (of Big Sugar)
3) Holly McNarland
4) Kate Fenner (never going to happen, but she deserves it)
5) Kathleen Edwards
