Winnipeg's own Guy Smiley is reuniting in about Five hours at the legendary Royal Albert in Winnipeg. The show sold out on Thuraday - way to go Winnipeg - nothing ever sells out in Winnipeg except crap like Nickelback.
Anyway "Alkaline" from 1999 is one of the best investments I made, twice after losing a 40 disc CD booklet.
Let me tell you this CD is another track to track classic, including the best song a Winnipegger has produced "The Canadian Way", which is all about the loss of the Winnipeg Jets, and the decline of the NHL under Gary Bettman. I have to say though, Bettman has finally turned that ship around, and I am willing to deal with the dark years, 2000-2004, and the strike, to see that the NHL is finally revolutionizing sport as it has in the past. This years draft all-star game is the best innovation in sport since the jock strap, or the face mask - hockey innovation.
Check out Guy Smiley. They were a smaller bad, but they were great, hung with the misfits, and created "Alkaline" one of the best light-hardcore albums you will ever hear.
The video is "The Kids" from the "Alkaline" release.
