just saw this and noticed it wasn't on Webby's radar. Anyhow, here's some news... TORONTO - Legendary Canadian singer-songwriter Paul Anka and former Oasis rocker Liam Gallagher will appear on "Cover Me Canada" this Sunday. CBC-TV says Anka will be a special guest judge as the four finalists sing the Ottawa native's time-honoured tunes. The setlist includes "Diana," "Put Your Head On My Shoulder," "Puppy Love," and "She's A Lady." Gallagher, who is married to the show's host, Nicole Appleton, will be an "on air special guest" in the episode. The host's sister and former All Saints bandmate, Natalie Appleton, will also be on hand for the show. "Cover Me Canada" features permanent judges Jordan Knight, Deborah Cox and Ron Fair. The winner gets a $100,000 cash prize and a recording contract for an original single to be released by Universal Music Canada. www.winnipegfreepress.com/arts-and-life/entertainment/TV/paul-anka-and-liam-gallagher-to-appear-on-cbc-tvs-cover-me-canada-132148948.htmlThis will surely generate some interest in Oasis and likely Beady Eye as well. For those who don't know, Paul Anka covered Wonderwall some years back.

I didn't even know it existed. Wouldn't count on it significantly raising BDI's profile in Canada.
But then Alberta generally isn't big on the CBC.

I just found out today at Pacific Centre, where they've got the news scrolling int he food court. the Liam mention made me enjoy me New York Fries more, but these sorts of programs always make me cringe a little. But good luck to Nicole, if its her project.

I was actually at the taping of the show when Liam was there. He had nothing to do with it, just there to support Nic I guess. He was sitting in the VIP section for the duration with Lennon and Gene.
