Raine was just on Entertainment Tonight Canada. He talked about his new CD with Rick Campenlli. Threw some jokes down with regards to his kids, ect. Not too bad. Replays at 7PM on Global if you're in Canada.

By the way, Amazon has their thirty-second previews up for all the songs on the album, now. A... something, violin or fiddle or something has been added to Careful What You Wish For. It would seem to my ears, anyway.

Go! Listen to 300 seconds of new material! Oh, minus the 150 seconds of old material. Oops.

EDIT: And for the record, I really like the Snake and the Crown. yay.

Huh, I was expecting The Snake and the Crown to be something new... never would've guessed Who Sold You Out got a new title. I guess that means I've seen him play all of these songs except for The Less I Know though.

Anyone know how it's turning out for Raine so far today?

Kicker774 · Post by **Kicker774** » 10/25/2007, 9:19 am

They gave him a quick plug on the Edge.

I figured they'd go live to him for a few since Yonge and Shuter is right at their studios.

I've seen clips on the news throughout the day... for example: http://www.citynews.ca/news/news_16106.aspx

Heading down there now.

I'm back. I saw his last performance outside Starbucks on College and Euclid. He was humble, and personal, intimate with his audience. He played: Yellow Brick Road, Earthless, Innocent, Snake and the Crown, and Sex, Love, Honey. He got agressive as Raine usually does at points in Crown and Sex, Love, Honey. He tried to sing about Starbucks in Snake and the Crown, but failed. I've got some pictures.
