Frankie Toronto Mike They were our Ramones, but I don't think anyone outside of Southern Ontario knows them. Buffalo Boy Mike Wow thats something else. I just recently started getting into them, They are one of the most underrated bands not just from Canada but of all time. Alison Wow, I loved them in high school! They put on a great show! I saw them at my friends school, Albion Collegiate, while I was quite possibly the drunkest I've ever been in my life. Sad to hear...51 is much too young to die... Buffalo Boy Mike I believe that was how old our friend Joe Strummer was when he left us too early as well. Mike from Lowville James, their first album is ultra rare on vinyl. No CD on that one. Maybe some day. My cousins know Gord and Frank very well.(school) Frankie will be missed. Horonymou, They were ready to explode after the Ontario Place riot, were going to go to LA. Venomous 1st album IS out on CD - released last summer I believe; after years of searching for this I found vinyl at a flea market and then the CD turned up at the local HMV about a week later... I was one of the many locked out of Ontario Place, but wasn't one of the few that was willing to swim across the "moat" to get in. R.I.P. Frankie
