Thanks. Working on it. And I don't need to get off the PC.. I write/record the stuff right away, the moment it comes. All I need is to friggin' move this summer, and I'm set.

I love Canada's diversity and range of styles. You have good ol' rock from my hometown boys The Tragically Hip, to the early mystic days of The Tea Party.

My hometown of Kingston has put out some talent out there, and I'm proud to say I'm from this city.

Some were born and raised, others born and moved, or some went to school here.

Bryan Adams
The Tragically Hip
Sarah Harmer
Dan Ackroyd (AMAZING harmonica player)
Ryan Malcolm (debatable)
David Usher/Moist
The Mahones

We also have a crazy list of hockey players and olympians, but that's for another time.

I love Canadian music, I'm just not a fan of hearing it many times over on top 40 radio stations, since the media is forced to play a percentage of Canadian content. I'm all for that and it's a good rule, however, I just don't like hearing Rush 10 times in an 8 hour shift.

I think you know now that the list is just too long!

lol, i was being semi sarcastic, and i was kind of shocked that not one of those artists were mentioned.lol, with the exception of April annoying Wine.

That's the reason why I didn't pull out the list. Cause it was too long.
But yea, definitely Nickelback, Theory, 3 Days Grace.. buncha good bands. 3 Days Grace takes the cake though
