Halifax Pop Explosion Amazing HPX '94 Video

memories.....

Posted by Alison Lang on Wed, Oct 20, 2010 at 12:14 PM

Rad Halifax local Mary posted this on halifaxlocals.com the other day. It's a video of Muchmusic clips from Halifax Pop Explosion in 1994. Within lies footage of Sunny Day Real Estate, Stereolab, Treble Charger (good Treble Charger!) and a host of faces you may recognize. I was twelve when this was shot and watching it jerked my heartstrings all over the place, so for those of you that were actually there, be warned; the nostalgia will come creeping. Thanks Mary for sharing this with the world.

Survey Asks

Do you agree with Halifax's school board cutting 152 teachers?

  • Yes, the board needs to meet its shrinking budget.
  • Only if managers and bureaucracy get a similar cut.
  • I don't care, I support the private education system.
  • No, giving young citizens the best education is too important to cut.

PS: And seeing the Liz band again reminded me why i became semi-obsessed with Liz Picard after that show, which lead me to semi-stalking her the first time i set foot in St John's - fulling expecting her to hold residence at the ship inn and being utterly disappointed when i found out she didn't play there every night of the week.
