    Might as well give up you're search ajrocks, i'm sorry to say you'll never find cool friends in Galway. you'll find the mildly retarded to the absolutely drugged up looney with a spot of snobishness and a dash of poser served with a hippy on the side but you'll never find anyone "cool".

    welcome to da wesht. :D

    nah.... those guys are the exception to the rule. any Canadian i've met is mad as a hatter. quite controlling though i have to say...

    and they all tend to be neat freaks.

    The only Canadian I know in Galway at the moment is a female rugby coach, hangs out in O'Connell's fairly regularly, mad as a brush and great craic.

    Sure there's lots more around the place, just seem to be bumping into more ozzies and kiwis these days.

    Some crappy techno is using the name of the almighty Rush!? They should be hung by the neck until dead.

    There is only one Rush, and they are the greatest Canadians to have ever lived:

    Great way to meet Canadian chicks too, as I found out when me and some friends were talking about Rush in the pub once, and these 3 Canadian girls came over to us and said oh my god (In the way only Canadians can) you guys like Rush!? That was awesome. :D

    OK, watched the vid, and now I know there's a very good reason I've never heard of them. Do they not have a singer??? Musical masturbation tbh...

    Oh, and the greatest Canadian ever was MacGuyver. Everyone knows that! ;)

    It does happen every so often, best way to meet the people on the galway forum is to suggest a pre xmas galway beers.

    It's all Canadian related, the title of the classic track on the video is YYZ, which is the code for Toronro Airport.:D

    What!? It's musical masturbation just because there are no vocals? Were Mozart, Bach, Schubert, Beathoven, Liszt, Wagner, Grieg, Chopin and any other classic composer all masturbating musically? Honestly, I despise the term 'musical masturbation' it doesn't even make sense. Honestly, some of the best music of the 20th century has been instrumental.

    And actually, they do have a singer:

    So buttons to you! :p

    Jeez, don't have a hernia there Karl! The vid posted was an instrumental song, which was just a load of showing off how well they could play guitar = sh!te! Thats why I called it musical masturbation.

    Wow, really? :eek: You don't say! But I was talking about Richard Dean Anderson, everyone knows he's Canadian. And it was tongue in cheek, but you took the bait anyway. Good man ;)

    Richard Dean Anderson is also American... Or is this some other attempt to show your own lacking knowledge that I've taken the bait on? :confused:

    Oops! My bad - too lazy to google and check. Always thought he was Canadian...
    Rush are still crap though, but hey, we all like bands that other people don't...

    The series itself was Canadian produced, so I think that's where you're going wrong.
