Hey everyone,
I was checking out the website and it seems to have been updated with pics and videos from the Junos!

mr downie is in fine form during that press conference...funny shit

- opiated - 04-18-2005

people ask some dumb questions..jeez...

- mrlayance - 04-18-2005

I can't stand that Bill Lawitch(whatever his name) guy and you people do ask very stupid questions...

"Sell the football gear"

Love that

I found it hard to hear most of what was said, most of the questions were very stupid, especially when that airhead asked about making it in the USA, I mean who really F&#$IN cares anymore! It seemed to be awkward for Gord and the band, what a joke the Junos are. I still say the Hall of Fame should be a seperate thing from the Junos, just like they do in the RNRHOF in the US. Have a ceremony let fans in and have the band play a couple tunes, maybe have some other bands play some of their songs as a tribute and induct them without the Junos attatched to it.

thats a great idea. The only problem would be that no one would watch the junos then

no one watches the junos now.

God love them, they've fixed the five-year dowloading plan for that press conference video, too!

I love that bit at the end where they're all leaving the podium and Robby turns back as if to make sure Gord D hasn't wandered off somewhere. He looks like he's had practice at that move.

that may be true, but this was the highest rated junos to date.

but one could also say: 2x zero still equals zero Smile

Dumbass: "Where do you guys go from here?"
Gord: "Back to the dressing room!!!" ....classic!!!

What a tool...he was the same guy that brought up the US thing...moron.

Goulet!!!

That's a great point. Living in Winnipeg I had an opportunity to get tickets to the Junos. I just couldn't justify paying $45 for nosebleeds or $120 for floor seats to see The Hip play two songs and then sit through Simple Plan and Billy Talent.
