Neil did a satire/mockumentary of himself,(who else?)shown on CBC/MuchMusisc some years back, and said the "town in North Ontario" was "Omeemee,north of Peterborough",(which is actually in SOUTHERN ONTARIO), because the host/interviewer kept asking him about whether the "town" was real or not. The look on the interviwers face was priceless. I never laughed so hard. Neil Young is an undercover comedian. SUDBURY ROCKS!

e-mail:mikegtr@sympatico.ca This reminds me of an interview by one of the guys from Steely Dan, about the song "Black Friday", where they sing about escaping to Australia and living in "Muss-well-brook". What's really funny is that the local pronounciation is "Muscle-brook". It turns out they just looked at a map of Australia to find a town that had the right number of syllables (as they thought), but most Australians didn't make the link between the two names, never having heard of Muss-well-brook. |
