If you loose track over a chord progression, play as fast as you possibly can. Nobody will know. Thats how they invented bebop.

Southern Ontario -  a few hours away from the birthplace of Neil Young!

It is really cool to see how his music has affected the people on the board.
It ain't pretty being easy.

Hey thats cool Vann, I am originally from Burlington Ontario, lived there until just finished High School.  Saw Max Webster play in my High School (what a great live band they were).  Where abouts in Ontario you originally from?

Hey BB. That's pretty ironic.

I was just telling a co-worker about Max Webster last week. You don't hear that band's name getting thrown around too often.

My band used to play "Waterline" back in the 80's. A great tune.

I knew a girl that used to cut Kim Mitchell's hair (when he had some).

I am from Chatham-Kent about an hour south of Sarnia (birthplace of Max Webster - BTW).

I go to Burlington once in a while for business, but I really try to stay away from that rat-race as much as possible.

Thanks for the memory.  That Kim Mitchel was one hell of a guitarist in his day.  They were my favorite band when I was in High school (I liked them better than Rush).  Very quirky stuff.

I'm surprised at the number of Iowans on here. I'm originally from Newton Iowa, and now in Columbus Ohio. It's pretty cool that those from the US appear to be in the minority on here.

I was in Toronto a few years back visiting a friend, Went to a dinner theater, and of course a tour bus of Americans came in. They were loud, obnoxious, and honestly I was embarrassed that they were the representation of my country. The Canadians I was with were all making derogatory comments about Americans under their breath. I couldn't help but laugh. It took them a minute to realize they were insulting me as well. I certainly didn't mind and definitely didn't blame my hosts.

Funny you mention that. I work with a few Canadians, who are very cool and laid back. Both have mentioned that the only "snooty" Canadians are in Quebec!
