Junos


So ... Nickelback won 3 Junos last night in Vancouver ... surprised? Probably not.

Here are a couple things from the Junos that were great ...

1. Sam Roberts performance of "Them Kids" ... not one of my favorite Sam Roberts songs but live .. it was really good.



2. Russel Peters opening monologue. Anyone who can make reference to cocaine and the Barenaked Ladies, and Anne Murray and sex scandals in the same breath, gets two thumbs up in my case!! Not because I condone drugs or sex tapes, just because it was really really edgy. Not to mention he ended by making out with Divine Brown!!

Just to show you how great the monologue was ... take a listen. Click Here

3. The time. Start to finish ... two hours. Thats it. It was refreshing. Other award shows could learn from us.

4. The induction of Loverboy into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame by famed producer Bob Rock was also cool ... but not as cool as they're before and after pics !!!
