True indeed, on the other hand, the good news is that right near where I live, they closed a crappy diner and opened an Irish pub

We went there for the official weekend launch, and a rocking band called Quagmyre played. I would highly recommend checking out the sound samples and the MP3 of the single at
www.quagmyre.ca, if you like good Celtic-inspired original music. Good East Coast Canadian boys, I think (the bio isn't up on the site yet). Slainte!
