Wednesday Wadio: Liquor & Guns & Whores & Roses.

"This is a song I play down at the legion sometimes..." - Bubbles.

The Trailer Park Boys rake in a ton of money in the show's off-season making in-character personal appearances, and for the last few years they have toured as opening acts for a lot of Canadian bands. They took it a step further last week in Halifax, Nova Scotia - their home Province.



"Axl has done duets with the likes of Mick Jagger, Steven Tyler, Bono, Springsteen, and now ...Bubbles! A page in the history of rock n roll was written that night, and I'm glad I was there to witness it." -YouTube comment

The Metro Center in Halifax holds a gazillion people, and I know it was sold out for this show. To hear thousands of voices singing along to Bubbles' infamous ditty is something you just have to watch for yourself. And when Axl himself does his strange little serpentine slither up to the front of the stage to join in, and actually appears to know the words, it's a very odd sight indeed. But in a good way.

"Seeing Axl Rose sing along to Nova Scotia's new official anthem rocks ...and hearing how the nearly 10,000 people there knew all the words is just so insanely funny." YouTube Comment
