Given that, tragically, I'm anything but hip (and thus don't know a thing about this band), give me the score on these guys. What songs are they known for? What bands have a similar sound? They will be coming to Grand Cayman for a concert on May 1st. The ticket prices are oddly reasonable ($80-$125) given that it's Cayman and everything is expensive here.
The Canadians sure are getting pumped up about it. But then again, they're also proud of Celine Dion, and I'd rather listen to cats screaming in a vicious fight than to suffer through that "Near, far..." thing again.
I know it must seem odd that I've somehow managed to miss a couple of decades of music from a band that is (apparently) so well known, but most of the 80s and 90s are a complete blur to me (musically speaking) since I was in graduate school for so many years. I've kind of done some catching up in recent years, but am just getting around to Green Day, Crowded House, etc. I'm more into classic rock, jazz, blues and reggae.
