how about Leonard Cohen, Neil Young, or The Guess Who? God I almost turned the TV off when Chad Kroeger appeared on it.

Rush should have played instead of Nickelback.

The closing ceremonies have been kind of whack, but overall the Olympics were sick

Neil Young was good. Then the entire ceremony took a childish turn with william shatner etc.

yea i agree,
and for the music: including one pop/punk/emo act  (avril, simple plan, hedley) was fine, but i think all 3 was pushing it. Neil Young could have ended it and it would have been amazing
