For an American who LOVES LOVES LOVES the Sam Roberts Band, so happy they won artist of the year! Their album is so great! I even got to shake Sam’s hand after a concert here-yea, that pretty much made my year! SRB!!!!
I am so excited that Dallas Green won! But just to correct the article, he goes by the moniker City and Colour, which also has a backup band. So technically City and Colour won.
Erika – he was awarded for writing, not performing, so it was under his own name. I watched every stitch of the show as my favorites closed the show.
NUMBER 1 I hate nickleback and who came up with the band name!eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
Kiki – thanks for the correction, but I just want people to associate City and Colour with Dallas Green. I know a lot of people that can’t grasp that notion.
damn Canucks, they think America has bad taste…
