[Mad Dog]

Matt, please don't tell us you like Marcy Playground !!!

[Mad Dog]

This is really bad: I've read rumours about really crappy, unfamous bands to play MADtv including "Ok Go", "Folksmen" and "Godsmack". What the hell is the matter with the producers! Why not spend the money on more sketch material ?! Plus there's a Caliendo sketch coming up called "Swirly Time" where he break dances. Ike plays Nick Nolte, Frank does Bush/ Marv Albert and Anna Nicole Smith makes her second appearance on upcoming episodes od MADtv!

[madislove]

I know Godsmack, they have good music. But who are the others?

[koolboee cdmo87]

I've heard a lot about Godsmack, I think they may have even had a #1 song at one point. Don't know the other two though.

Are you talking about the real Anna Nicole or Stephnie's impression?

[Mad Dog]

The REAL Ms. Smith!!! Well, any music performance has got to be better than Marvy Playground's "Sex & Candy". You agree Blackwind?

[madislove]

What is Marvy Playground? A Canadian show?

No, since Mad Dog was obviously referring to a song, it's probably the name of a band.

[madislove]

OH. Well when Mad Dog said something about a song I thought it was a show that had musical performances, like a late night thing. LOL!

[Mad Dog]

I meant Marcy Playground (not Marvy: typo) which is one of the crapiest rock bands that ever existed and had one hit called "Sex & Candy" in 1997. Somehow this el lamo track managed to weasel it's way onto the 34-track compilation rock CD Big Shiny 90's. Horrible. Matt said...
I smell episode threads and can-day... here! V.S.-->
I smell sex and candy... yeah!
Who's that laying in my chair?
Who's that casting devious stairs
In my direction mama this surely is a dream... yeah

[Kai]

Love that song, I have it on CD somewhere. But I don't remember any other songs by them.

Godsmack has been famous for quite awhile now and Ok Go is up and coming but getting pretty famous, at least on alternative radio here in the US. I haven't heard any of their music, but I know people that like them. I have no idea who the hell Folksmen are though.

That's one of those Much Music compilations, right? You guys in Canada have way better compilations than we do. And way better candy...Aero Bars, Smarties, Caramilk, Kinder Eggs, and all the other great Nestle and Cadburry stuff that we don't carry in the US. I come to Canada at least once a year and stock up on my candy supply. lol! I live less than an hour from the border. I'll be in Toronto for almost a week this June. I can't wait.

[koolboee cdmo87]

Marcy Playground was a big one-hit wonder in '98 with their song "Sex and Candy".

[madislove]

OMG Cadbury! They have the best Easter candy! I love their Cadbury mini eggs... they have great candy.

[koolboee cdmo87]

Do they have Mars Bars here? I know they're wildly popular in the UK, but I've never seen them I don't think.. probably because M&Ms are the big candy made by Mars in the US.

[Mad Dog]

Canada has Mars Bar, those are one of my favourites! I cannot believe we make something popular that the US doesn't have, moohahahaha! It's such a popular chocolate bar too, too bad!
Oh, Big Shiny Tunes CD's are generally really crappy. MuchMusic dictates what's popular and then only puts on the poppy stuff only like New Found Glory. Big Shiny Tunes 7 reaks of this problem sooo badly! They didn't even put on Nirvana's new song, Foo Fighters' new song, Red Hot Chili Pepper's new song etc...just stuff like POD or Danko Jones who I cannot stand.

Don't get too excited, I've seen Mars Bars in vending machines.

[Cat_Named_CeCe]

Yeah, Mars bars are fairly common over here in the US.

[madislove]

Yeah, they have em in the UK too. "Mommy, can i have some chocolates? I want some Mars Bars!"-Austin Powers

[critical "I"]

If you're a fan of "Waiting for Guffman" you'll be pleased to know "The Folksmen" is from Christopher Guest's next movie. It is a Folk Group movie (like Spinal Tap... but w/ Folk Music). It's not a real group. It's the same actors from "Guffman" and "Best In Show". Very funny.
