While it is true that the idolatry of entertainment is a serious issue today, there is nothing wrong with enjoying some great music from local talent.  |

One of the kids went to school with my sister so she says it's a bit surreal seeing him on there- and having the talent he does!!
The only thing I think is a bit too bad is that no matter what, these people will always have the stigma of being a 'Canadian Idol' artist- a little bit cheesy

I guess being a 'Canadian Idol' is better than being a 'nobody' in their eyes. Anyway, who went to school with your sister? | | |
