The party is over for another year. The Junos were a smash hit. Here is a picture of the Tragically Hip accepting their induction into the Hall of Fame. They are a great group but I don`t care much for the newer stuff. The finale was great with The Wailin Jennies, Burton Cummings, Randy Bachman, The Waking eyes, and other locals doing Taking Care of Business and Share the Land. Brett But was a good host....funny. Its too bad that Neil Young could not make it but he was ably replaced by K D Lang, who got a real long standing ovation. Winnipeg done the awards proud and hopefully it wont be years before they come back again! This coming week its the Winnipeg Comedy Festival. CBC will be taping those and probably will be shown on TV in the fall or next winter. Well TATA for now. Oh yeah, almost forgot, we saw a cute show on CBC called Fungus the Bogeyman. Its a British kids (well Im a big kid!) show and its a hoot. Fungus has a boy named Mold and they live underground and Fungus has to go uptop to spread germs,etc. every night but he must not be seen! Watch for it next Sunday at 7, maybe. Peace.
