Can't be all that bad an idea if they hooked Geddy Lee and Mr. Gordon Lightfoot now, can it?

[Bootlegger420]

Can't be all that bad an idea if they hooked Geddy Lee and Mr. Gordon Lightfoot now, can it?

And Bubbles and Weird Al too! :lol:

So does this mean that we should throw Peanut Butter & Crackers at Gord during concerts?

i thought it was a nice song . I will buy the cd since i have a 3 yr old daughter and this would be better than most cds i have to listen to with her in the car.

[screw_ball]

Doesn't it kind of defeat the point if we're already told what everyone's favourite snack is? I mean, I don't see what the point of listening to this album would be otherwise. It sounds pretty bad musically.

It doesn't touch anything on the Rheostatics "The Story of Harmelodia" but 7 8 9 sounded pretty cool.
