bouche Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Dinghy and Jaydawg might think that Letterman should have introduced them while stating where they were born, where their first bands were formed, the different places they lived, and then after all that said "And they are currently living in Montreal..."

Freak By Night Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Letterman and Shaffer played up the Montreal angle by mocking a French accent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Funk Dawg Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 In talking to people from NY music scene who'spoint of reference is knowing them as The Slip, they find it a bit amusing that they've been announcing themselves as 'from Montreal" so frequently that they feel it's a bit over done.I don't mind teasing them that they are fellow Canucks. Hey if it worked for Arcade Fire then I say go for it.I guess I should ask you Northern Wish, do you consider yourself from Ottawa or From the East Coast (Fredericton is it)?I was born in Toronto, lived in Montreal for 3 years as a kid, Toronto for middle school & highschool, lived 6 years in Nova Scotia then back to Toronto. I'm gonna be in NYC for 2-3 years... Still consider myself to always be a Torontonian with East Coast roots, maybe it will be cooler to say New Yorker in a year or so...

AD Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 The people in the band are from different places, the band is from Montreal. It's not hard to figure out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave-O Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Not to mention Andrew and Brad have been in Mtl for 7 years now. Not sure what Jaydawg's statute of limitations is on hometown claimability, but that should cover it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Wish Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 I just caught wind that The Barr Brothers will be performing at the NAC in Ottawa on Saturday March 3. I have no other details, but a good guess would be that this at the 4th Stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
