5 days in July. Banded at 12. Travelled the world forever. 3-4000 audience. For me, harmonically, vocally this album was one of the most seasoned, lyrical and making Queen St. an exit point, forever, and beyond. Thank you.
That first top ten single "Try" sounded unlike anything else on the radio at the time. Especially true of Jim's vocal. The excellence of the writing and performance were undeniable whether you were interested in country music or not. Good on these guys for sticking to their vision.
Greg said Three Rivers, then changed it to Trois Rivieres. Wow! Shades of growing up in Shawinigan where we always used Three Rivers, and still do. Thanks, Greg
Grew up in TO; went to uni in Waterloo and London; moved to Halifax and Fredericton; lived in Calgary, Canmore and Lethbridge. Blue Rodeo; a national treasure!
I love these guys! Such a great interview- thank you for profiling Blue Rodeo. They are certainly the soundtrack of my 20's and 30's...i never tire of their songs❤
Going to see Blue Rodeo in Niagara Falls this weekend. First concert for me since Covid hit. What a way to return to "real life" with one of the very best bands Canada has ever produced.
I heard this interview on the radio earlier today while on my way to get my booster, Tom had mentioned CBC Q on RU-vid, I just watched it and I really enjoyed it. So nice to see Greg & Jim talk about their 40 year journey, nice to see they still appreciate and like each other, good job Tom.
Enjoyed the interview. Just saw Blue Rodeo at Budweiser Gardens in London. on. Fantastic concert🎶❣️. These guys are amazing live 👏 I have been fortunate to see them 20 times or more. They are one of the few bands who sound as good live as recorded. Please keep playing concerts.
Never give up telling your story I'm sure it was funny then and it is sure is funny now. It just made my day and left it my spirits give me that little chuckle. Thanks for all that great music I hope you have a very Merry Christmas and keep up the good work
This is great love RU-vid great interview. Also I think I saw blue rodeo at the HOTEL ISABELLA in the 80’s on a weeknight with nobody there but me. I said to myself whoever these guys are they are incredible.
Blue Rodeo fan since the late 90s. So cool they met at NTCI which was my high school too. Always mention them along with other famous NTers Keanu Reeves, Eric Lindros and Malin Ackerman to name a few.
This is awesome! Blue Rodeo, Greg Keelor and Jim Cuddy wow.....simply amazing band, "Try' of course, their break out hit, who doesn't love that song? All of their music is amazing, I still remember seeing them play at the 'Taste of the Danforth' years upon years ago by the infamous 'fountain; gyro zone....live and outstanding per their norm, they sing, perform brilliantly, love them. Thanks for posting this, I thoroughly enjoyed this and learnt a lot about one of my favourite homegrown bands.....woohoo.
I thoroughly enjoyed this interview with these two incredible artists. My wife and I have seen them twice and have tickets for the February 10th show at Place Des Arts in Montreal.
Really hoping to meet the boys in Peterborough 2019 - my niece's man, Matt Blakely got us tickets - we thought backstage but somehow that went south - so many great songs and memories ...
Loved the interview and happy that Blue Rodeo is still making music! I have seen Blue Rodeo many times over the last 30 years and I am glad I did because I won't submit my medical privacy to any venue for any band including my beloved Blue Rodeo.
@@VeeVeeVeeV no it's in the context of his actual health issues from long term ear issues which lead to migraines, so hopefully he'll find some techniques to help mitigate that 🙏✨
