For those that watched the Vancouver 2010 Closing Ceremonies, what did you guys think about stereotypical Canada?

We're the only country that would make fun of ourselves on purpose in front of the entire world, which is pretty awesome. Overall this was by far better than the Opening Ceremonies. Imo, should have taken out Avril, Hedley, and Nickelback and substituted with Tragically Hip, Billy Talent, Deadmau5 and above all, more beavers. The fake screw up of the cauldron arm was good, and Neil Young was amazing as well.

Stompin Tom Connors and Great Big Sea.

I thought it was good, but i thought the opening ceremonies were better lol. Gotta love Canada making fun of themselves tho. And pulling out william shatner.. and michael j fox and whatnot was also pretty awesome.

Never heard of the first one and I thought GBS disappeared when they should have 10 years ago. I remember my grandma getting me their CD because the lady at Walmart told her all the cool kids were rocking out to it.

According to that logic, you mustve loved the closing ceremonies.

Oh my god, you don't know about Stompin Tom Connors? You don't get any more Canadian folk than Stompin Tom. Go download Bud the Spud or Big Joe Mufferaw.

I think I'm going to stick with Billy Talent lol.

[The-Black-Ninja]

That's terrible and so are you for listening to Billy Talent

I agree. There's much better Canadian music than Billy Talent.

I got to watch the gold medal hockey game downtown Vancouver in one of the beer houses. I think the one I was in was called Irish House.
It was pretty awesome.

Ya like Brian Adams, Nelly Furtado, and Celine Dion! Oh.. wait =/

Excision > * am I right?

I was working for the entire Olympics.. I even had free tickets to 4 events from work and couldn't go due to work. For someone who participated a hell of a lot in the planning, I barely got to see a game, even on TV =(

[Neon]

Lol I thought they had a fairly good mix for bands. And to each their own. Tho i must say, Stompin Tom would have been a good addition..

And that sucks Ben. I was in the states for over half of the olympics, so i didn't get to see a lot of the first half of it.

[Jack]

still, only you canadians have cared enough to post in this thread

[Ben]

Sam is hardly Canadian. Check the trash can.
