More specifically, 8th Ave SW, downtown.
Jeez, we've got about half a dozen posters from Halifax.

2. I'm not Canadian, but I have a question...

Why do Barenaked Ladies hate Halifax?

3. What makes you think they do?

Edited on Mon May-17-04 11:20 AM by glarius

I can't imagine them saying anything like that, unless it was in some kind of a joking way???? They are always clowning around.....:shrug:
P.S....I'm from southern Ontario, Canada! :hi:

5. The song "Hello City"...

is about Halifax... maybe I take them too seriously, but it appears they are no fans of the place:

"Hello, city. You've found an enemy in me"

"I wish this sea-side beer-hall would sink into the bay"

11. Someone just told me that when they were starting out they played

some bar in Halifax where they never had a very good experience and so they wrote this song...Since then apparently they have changed their mind about Halifax....:)

8. Yes...

That's our late bunny Mimi, the feisty mini-lop with the genius IQ. She lived almost 9 1/2 years, which is pretty long for a rabbit.

There's a webshots album of her and our other bunnies (along with lots of other stuff) here:

Enjoy!

14. Hamilton

Heading back in the next few weeks. I've been in SE Kansas for 5 months with my fiance. We can only stay in the US for six months at a time. I've been trying to find out all morning how long I have to be back in Canada before I can turn around and come back down here again. Anyone know?
