Not to rub it in, but they were fantastic live.

Can't believe I forgot to mention her. She's great! And I definitely agree with everybody here regarding the Tea Party's live show. I saw them a couple of times back in the day, and they kicked ass. I was just never a big fan of Martin's songwriting, that's all. I always thought his lyrics were awful.

I'd add Gordie Sampson to the list too, but that's my opinion. And if Hayden was still around (producing music...he's not dead) I'd add him to the list. And how about Greg Keelor and Jim Cuddy from Blue Rodeo??

Do you mean this Hayden?

He's still around. New album will be out later this year and he released Elk-Lake Serenade (which is awesome by the way) just two years ago.

Yep, that's the Hayden I meant. Great, I'm glad to hear he has a new album coming out. I'll have to check it out for sure. I've always loved his stuff, and his live shows are even better than his studio stuff.

Look at #22 and #8 on his list. :wink: Big Grin

I saw Hayden in 1999 and he was awesome. It was my first real concert to tell you the truth. I was very pleased. :thumb:

I have to jump on the Hayden bandwagon too, great musician, saw him live in 99 as well, and I met him, he's one laid back dude.

Imagine a world before the "beginning was the word.”

Wow, me neither. Personally I think they're the second greatest band in the known universe next to the Hip, but maybe that's just me.
