I was not born in Newfoundland, I was born in Switzerland. But I have lived here since I was a baby. This is my homeland, such an amazing place with such amazing people.

I <3 NEWFIE MUSIC WERE CAN I FIND THIS

[tofee35]

so should I move to newfoundland for its obvious awesomeness?

[pendevil]

depends what youre looking for in a place. if youre into quiet living, lovely scenery..general tradtional appearance to everything (except the capital which is more modern), albeit with the downsides..some narrow mindedness, plenty of shit talking, domestic abuse, alcoholism, etc..then sure. its really great if thats all cool by you. im on the west coast now and kind of miss it..but mostly not.

if youre looking for a really fast paced kinda place, tons going on..nl isnt the place for you, sire.

[Puppetter]

Yes, NEWFOUNDLAND IS THE MOST AWESOME LAND THERE HAS EVER BEEN! The people are awsome. The land is awsome. The drinks are awsome. The food is the best of it all. Newfoundland food is the best in all the world.

[robertanita]

I say any Youtube video that includes pics and people of Newfoundland is a damn good one! Thanks for this!

[chrismercer1983]

great job by, awesome awesome awesome

[BongWaterMusic]

neat job...

Im doing a documentary on Bands from newfoundland that maybe should have been famous but didn't quite get there... There's lots of talent from the rock..

any suggestions on bands, and where to get footage?

[solonbrown]

I did a Musicology course & presented on Newfoundland music. All you can do is show a summary. The richness!

[solonbrown]

Not bad at all. I liked it.

[pendevil]

Thanks. I'm aware there was a fair bit of stuff left out, but it wasn't supposed to be an intricate attempt, it was for a Sociology project, and it served well as an accompaniment to the essay I wrote along with it.

[poguehead]

I thought it was extremely well done.Of course , when you're an old man of 45(ahemmmmmm) there are a lot of bands left out , but you know as well as I do , that If we had to show all of the talent in Newfoundland , Youtube wouldn't have enough room

CHEERS

[pendevil]

Thanks man. I agree. If the circumstances were proper and I was assigned to do a fuller length video, you can bet I would've put even more research into it, and a lot more bands would've been included.

[jensara]

Good grief. Quite a shock to go from the lovely playing of Emile Benoit to whatever-the-hell the music in the second half was. And with the exception of Tickle Harbour, all my favorite post-Emile/Rufus musicians seem to have been left out....

[jensara]

That was actually my husband posting; he didn't notice I was the one logged in until he had already posted the comment.

[futon]

Lots missing there old buddy. Give 'er another go. :)
