Damien Rice fans in Quebec, Canada?

QuebecFolk · 11-14-2004, 06:11 PM

Hey there!
Am I the only Damien Rice's fan in Quebec or what? :[img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]
Nobody knows him here, that's why I gave myself a mission of making him known! I'm a folk singer myself and I play LOTS of Damien Rice songs to my friends or in gigs. Everybody who hears him love him. I am making a demo and you will soon hear me on internet on my website. I'm inspired by Damo for sure... how could I not? I listen to O like two or three times per day since march 2004. This site really rocks! Especially the mp3 and video section. How many times have I seen the sessions on Morning becomes Ecclectic.

I do not only admire his music, I admire the man, which is really rare. Most of the time I am disappointed by the man behind the songs, but Damien is so simple, so real. I want a life like his!

Hey, it's not easy writing english songs in a french speaking province, everybody wants you to sing what everybody sings... But they won't have me haha!

Bye guys! If anyone from Quebec, please reply!

Hey! I got a little quiz for you guys. An easy one, but I wanna know if you're gonna be wise enough [img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]JK

What's the link between Damien Rice and Quebec? Eventually, between Rice and me, except the fact we have the same ... humm dunno how to say it in english... initials ? The first letter of each name (mine are DR too wooohoo!).

So, what's the link ? Gonna post a clue if nobody figures it out.

cindy8219 · 11-15-2004, 09:27 PM

you are both males?????[img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

you both play the guitar???[img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]

you are both singer songwriters????[img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]

Jgrg1984 · 11-16-2004, 12:00 AM

you both live in countries other than the united states???

QuebecFolk · 11-16-2004, 12:54 AM

Nah... Here's the clue.

"We got some famous blue raincoats in Quebec you know..."

If you don't find out... You're sleeping! [img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]

cindy8219 · 11-16-2004, 01:38 AM

I might be sleeping....[img]smileys/smiley5.gif[/img]

Jgrg1984 · 11-16-2004, 02:55 AM

cohen...

QuebecFolk · 11-16-2004, 11:50 AM

Alright... looks like almost nobody's interested in this quiz so I'm gonna tell the answer

Leonard Cohen is from Montreal, Quebec. Rice gets inspiration from Cohen, I get inspiration from Rice. Kind of a two-way relationship between the countries [img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]

This is what I was looking for!
