For those of us who don't watch television, will someone tell us what's so wrong with them? I miss my MuchMusic. So let's talk music...is anyone else slightly dissapointed by the fact that the Moffatts are hosting the Junos? I don't even remember who hosted last year, was it Jason Preistly? As always, I think Jann would be great! Performers include Chantal Kreviazuk, Our Lady Peace, Prozzak, Amanda Marshall (-Sony sponsored much?!) and also, Diana Krall, Barenaked Ladies and Great Big Sea. Anyway, nominations roll out tomorrow (Feb 2nd). Thank God Celine took a "break" this year. I don't have much of an idea, but I'm thinking that the performers are going to be pretty popular in the nominations. If VIP get nominated for anything I think I may have to move due to embarassment. np: "Jason i hear you when no one hears a sound" - - signing off again...andy the girl ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 01 Feb 2000 17:38:10 EST From: "Shawna Caspi" Subject: Re: Some comments on the much VJ search > > >i saw the afformentioned back to back brittney/mandy watever >commercials >and > > >almost threw up. there is something very wrong with that. > > i can't decide what's worse -- that or a melanie doane commercial. > >For those of us who don't watch television, will someone tell us what's so >wrong with them? Britney/Mandy/whatever...Do these record companies NOT SEE that these girls look, sound, and come across as VERY similar? These commercials just scream it in your face. Even their album covers all look the same. Melanie Doane...don't know...not only haven't I seen the aformentioned commercial, I happen to think Melanie Doane is very talented! >I miss my MuchMusic. Poor poor Andy :( >So let's talk music...is anyone else slightly dissapointed by the fact that >the Moffatts are hosting the Junos? I don't even remember who hosted last >year, was it Jason Preistly? As always, I think Jann would be great! AAAA! Yes! I couldn't believe it when I heard it! The first thing that popped into my head was the image of little boys running around and tearing up the stage...Come on! The Moffatts? Jann Arden a few years ago, that was good. Jason Preistly I could handle. Mike Bullard (gag) was last year and now it's even worse! :p >Performers include Chantal Kreviazuk, Our Lady Peace, Prozzak, Amanda >Marshall (-Sony sponsored much?!) and also, Diana Krall, Barenaked Ladies >and Great Big Sea. Oh sweet sweet Great Big Sea...wow...so many people know they kick ass now. They actually pulled out of the ECMAs to "give everyone else a chance" :) And as egotistical as that might sound, everyone knows it's true. That's a good list of performers though. >Anyway, nominations roll out tomorrow (Feb 2nd). Thank God Celine took a >"break" this year.

Hopefully forever :) Take care everyone, luv Shawna =) ps: Anyone know if CBC television will be showing the ECMAs and when? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ shawna@fumblers.com fumbler\passenger\canmuser\lilith fan\resident mm/syl groupie **dancing around the handbasket**wink** - ------------------------------------------------------------ - ---BEGIN FUMBLECODE BLOCK--- Version: 3.1b [TC1.0b] FuMU exsl a+ Ifte lonca rd ps+ bs t++ C- w p3/*p LF++ N++ cd41 pr+++ g+ S--- x Fa m+/?m b+/b/b- fc+ E- rl-- d! s! - ----END FUMBLECODE BLOCK---- - ------------------------------------------------------------ *Are you a Michaela Foster Marsh fan?

It's *exactly* the trend that the big record companies pursue. What happens is that they manufacture a "singer" or a "band" (using those terms very loosely) and if they take off, then the record companies immediately all jump on the bandwagon and clone the trend to death. e.g. Spice Girls --> All Saints Britney Spears --> Mandy Moore, Jessica whats-her-face ... not Weiser, ha ha Backstreet Boys --> N'Sync, 98 Degrees It's the same situation with television, too, but I'm somewhat less versed in that area. In a way, though, I'm glad "My So-Called Life" was never popular, because I probably would have been sick of the concept by the third clone show :) - - Julian [ Julian C.
