A giant Cake was up on the stage and when Crowbar was introduced, one by one they came out the top of the cake and started rockin" out. At one point Rheal Lanthier and John Gibbard climbed up on Kellly's shoulders and played away as he struted around the stage during one of the songs. The film was only about 1/2 hour long, but depicted Crowbar as this high energy group that should have been huge outside of Canada. I'll never forget this show and have been looking for anyone who may have a recording of that broadcast.

The film was about 1/2 hour concert of Crowbar playing at (I think) one of Pierre Trudeau's relection parties. I thought it may have been at Maple Leaf Gardens. A Giant Cake was moved on to the stage and the band with Kelly Jay, Rheal Lanthier, Josef Chirowski, Sonny Bernardi, Roly Greenway and John Gibbard all came out of the the top of the cake and started rockin' the stage. John and Rheal got up on Kellys shoulders and played away as he walked around the stage. I'll never forget the film and have been looking for someone who may have recorded the TV footage. olderecknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1975416078255909953.post-20635550603386940192013-10-03T12:04:27.911-04:002013-10-03T12:04:27.911-04:00I always wondered what became of Crowbar, I loved ...I always wondered what became of Crowbar, I loved their records- still listen to them- so it's good to read that they performed as recently as last November. Also made 2 (that I know of) great records with King Biscuit Boy. EKS-7294https://www.blogger.com/profile/10298320378082484968noreply@blogger.com
