WE'RE BACK :) We've started our penny drive for the Vancouver Food Bank and hope you have an empty pickle jar earmarked for us/Jeff O'Neil/Vancouver food bank. 8 months can generate some serious copper-age!
Without equal, the 54-40 and Friends was a highlight of JUNO week if not THE highlight. Frankly from IndieCan's perspective on the Canadian music scene, the televised portion of the JUNO awards overlooked a performance or at least presentation by 54-40.
Never the less, Saturday night, you created the most memorable moments of the 2009 JUNOs although, it will be debated long and hard for years to come if the Rockers winning the Juno Cup doesn't trump you - lol.
