Scarborough, Toronto ON, Canada (1988 – present)
Barenaked Ladies (often abbreviated BNL) is a Canadian independent rock band currently composed of Jim Creeggan, Kevin Hearn, Ed Robertson, and Tyler Stewart, and formerly Andy Creeggan and Steven Page who left the band amicably in February 2009 to pursue solo projects. Despite Page’s leaving, the remaining members of the band assure fans that a new album will be recorded in 2009 and continue on as Barenaked Ladies. March 7th, 2009 saw their first show on stage as a foursome in Orlando Florida. Tyler Stewart’s drumset was proudly emblazoned with a “Fantastic 4” logo.
They formed in 1988 in Scarborough, Ontario, a suburb of Toronto, and are best known for their hit singles, “
One Week”, “Pinch Me”, “If I Had $1000000” and “Brian Wilson”, and for their light-hearted and comedic performance style. Their trademark at live shows is humorous banter between songs, and improvised raps/songs, both of which are staples at almost every concert they perform. Each member of the group is a versatile musician, as there are a lot of varied instruments, and each member (with the exception of drummer Tyler Stewart) has written and sung lead on at least one song for the band.
Indie origins
Barenaked Ladies began as the duo of Ed Robertson and Steven Page. The two had gone to school together since Robertson was in the fourth grade (Page was a grade ahead), but were not friends until they ran into each other at a Harvey’s restaurant following a Peter Gabriel concert.

Rock Spectacle is great. and i was a bit aggressive but i just dont like it when people find out about bands because of shows and things and then pretend like its their best song and act like they know all about the band. people do the same thing with the strokes and reptilia just because it was in guitar hero. for some it may introduce them to their other music but many of their new fans due to the show do not know their music.

It's all a cry for attention as far as I'm concerned. Granted, we are feeding him, but whatever. Also, I definitely agree with Lavos. Rock Spectacle is probably one of my all time favorite albums from any band.

Bit aggressive about the Big Bang Theory song ajcmusic? I agree that it's not a great song by their high standards, but if it introduces people to the band's extended library and their great music, then that can only be a good thing, right? I'm with ya about that retard mysterytrip troll though - there seems to be a new post every time I come on this page, it really does surprise me how pathetic some people can be.
