  1. You may see this list reprinted in a different order. I often give my sporting friends the option of adding local emphasis. So a Saskatchewan paper may want to move up The Sweepdogs (Sheepdogs).

  6. Brilliant stuff RJ. I'm American and I know all but one of these bands. Why haven't Canuck papers picked this up?

  7. I agree. Lots of laughs RJ. I enjoyed these as much as your Beatles curling hits. And like Len, April Wine takes me back. So does Men Without Hacks - Pop Goes the World.
