Anyone like Saga? ie: Tonight I'm on the Loose.

 

Yeah...I have a few Saga albums...In Transit was a great one! Saw them live at Univ of Western Ontario back in the late 80's....not billed as saga...it was the singer, keyboardist and guitarist. They played Saga tunes all night though.

Most underrated bands:

 

I was going to say the Dropkick Murphys but someone beat me to it.. I guess I'll go with The Commitments. In the early 90's there as a book about a Soul band in Northern Dublin, Ireland, which didn't get very far outside of their hometown. There was a movie with soundtrack based on the book, which were both quite successful and a "real band" formed from some of the principal actors in the film. The Commitments still tour today, their show is a compilation of songs from the movie as well as some all time soul classics.

Corb Lund Band is definitely underrated. They're great.

 

Love the Hip! This saturday in Sudbury will be my 36th time seeing them live.

 

I'm surprised to see how many ppl are into the Metal/hard stuff. Interesting. Whatever floats your boat.

Favourite Genre:- Folk

Favourite Band(s):- Altan, Battlefield Band, Clannad, Chieftains, Flook, Patrick Street................ not forgetting those fine Canadians, The Rankins.

 

Got fed up with the popular music scene when it became "over" electronic and traditional instruments along with the ability to play them was lost!

 

Known by my workmates as "squeeky door music" :lol:
