Well at least they are blue.

I am not sure this is a new low though.

True. It's not Roseanne Barr.

But this kling-klang percussion stuff was pretentious and boring the first time around, when Kraftwerk performed it two decades ago. The Jays are the most ridiculous organization this side of... yeah, like I need to finish that sentence... :D:

Nothing says Canadian Pride like the Blue Man Group.

Kraftwerk is the synthy group, I think you are really meaning Einstürzende Neubauten (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einst%C3%BCrzende_Neubauten).

Oops, mein error. Danke.

The entire Canadian music industry is at their doorstep and the best they can do is wheel out a visiting stage show (conveniently playing in Toronto at the moment, but why be cynical?).

The Black Jays hit a Low with me when they abolished BLUE in their uniforms
for Black. The Cardinals are also strongly considering going to Black and Teal uniforms
