If you're Blue Rodeo, you tour Canada in 40 dates, and the last two are in Massey Hall. We're showcasing Blue Rodeo with separate one-on-one  interviews with co-founders and co-writers\/singers Greg Keelor and Jim Cuddy. ,  Blue Rodeo and the guys have multiple Junos, Hall of Fame inductions, Songwriters Hall of Fame, Canadian Walk of Fame Orders of Canada, a really good documentary and just this year,  a stamp and a beer.     To me, I hear the sound of Canada in their high harmonies.   They started out as a hot bar band after returning from a disappointing series of months in New York. New York said "You can't have two lead singers and you can't do country, rock and roots.  You must have a clear image of who the audience sees you as".   Back in Canada. None of that existed.  We loved them  just as they were. The boys knew where they belonged, and it showed up in the joy of their music.   Enjoy this conversation between three music fans who lived those 40 years. And are still friends   ","author_name":"Mulligan Stew","author_url":"http:\/\/www.mulliganstew.ca\/","html":"
