Should have had Deadmau5 do the whole set. Buddy is Canadian and knows how to hype a crowd.

nahhh i'd say his concerts are rather civilized social gatherings that accompany the consumption of wine and aged cheeses

WHERE THE FUCK WAS THE TRAGICALLY HIP!!!!!!


Very dissapointed in the bands.

Others should have been

Trooper
54-40
Rush
BTO (theyre back)
so on and so forth

^^^YES

if it was Tragically Hip, Neil Young, and [hate to admit it] Nickleback it would have been rediculously amazing

(Rush?)

I think Sam Roberts shoulda played, and Metric or something. and something with Bachman. and Classified most certainly should have been with k-os. aand some awesome french/acadien bands like les trois accords

I like the way you think. They would have to keep Neil Young and I think also add Great Big Sea, then things would have been perfect.

ooh.... forgot about Cohen, he would be great. And for one of the acts you would need to have cirque de soleil performing as well (although they would have been better in the opening ceremonies they really have to be somewhere).

she is apparently trying to get prego so she couldn't preform.

Ya the line up was lame and cheesy, but thats the Olympics and they wanted people that the world would reconize, but we will be remembered for our shit music now haha, oh well I had fun and laughed at it
