Not Fragile helped get me through senior year of h.s.

Oh, Randy. The best years, the best years have come and gone.

Truly, you put the hurt on me.

Bachman Turner Overweight?

well i always hated BTO
but i'd loved the Guess Who since I was eight years old

and his CBC radio show can be interesting and entertaining
if a bit self-serving at times

so hey, sure, give the guy this Order of Canada...
but really, what's an award but a chance for the bequeather
to bask in reflected light?

/kinda silly

I guess now I have seen something.

I saw BTO on the Not Fragile tour in '74, and they kicked ass. About 10-11 years later, I saw them again(or a version of the band with Randy and his brother) in a little hole-in-the-wall club in Salem, VA, and he was still kicking ass. My brother, his wife, and I got to talk to him for a few minutes, too. Really nice guy.

FTA, caption of pic on left--Formally of the Guess Who, Randy Bachman and Burton Cummings

It would appear that Canadian journalism is as dead as the American counterpart.

I thought that said Boards of Canada, and I couldn't wrap my mind around why Randy Bachman would be presenting them and award.

/not cause they don't deserve it.
//just a weird pairing.
