Barenaked Ladies Join The Circus

The Barenaked Ladies only just finished hosting the Juno Awards show last night in St. John's, Newfoundland, and they're already preparing to host another huge event.
The boys, with some friends in tow, are coming to the Molson Amphitheater in Toronto to play a benefit for Serve Canada (a youth opportunities program) they've dubbed The Barenaked Circus. And anyone who's seen a BNL live show knows how crazy, fun and full of energy they can be.
They may be lacking in the elephant and bearded lady department, but don't let that discourage you. It may not be exactly like when you went to the circus as a kid, but now you can go and enjoy some kick ass music with a beer in your hand. And that beats pink popcorn and unfunny clowns any day of the week.
The show begins at 4 p.m. and carries on into the evening. Along with the Ladies themselves, a couple of BNL off-shoot bands will be on hand —The Brothers Creeggan (BNL bass player Jim's other band with brother Andy) and the BNL keyboardist's band Kevin Hearn And The Thinbuckle. And knowing those Barenaked Ladies, there'll probably be plenty of special mystery guests thrown in for good measure.
Tickets for the circus range in price from $35 to $19.99 and can be acquired through any Ticketmaster outlet. They go on sale this Saturday (April 20) morning at 10 a.m.
As we've already reported, you can also catch The Brothers Creeggan as they tour around Canada and the States promoting their new album, Sleepyhead.
—Hayley Butler
If you check out the newest issue of Maxim Magazine and look on page 58, The “How to do everything better” section of the magazine, you will find a great picture of BNL with a really hot girl behind them holding a whip. The look on Ed and Tyler’s faces are funny as hell.
The caption reads something like ‘we knew Canada was somewhere near hell’.
I finished watching the Juno’s yesterday and when I went online today I couldn’t believe the rumors flying all because Jim Creeggan and Alanis Morrisette were arm in arm at the end of the show.
