POLARIS
Thanks Owen and Kat and Justin and everyone else - pics and mp3s of the set and shit later.
In the mean time, here are some choice TWEETS:
cratic Can not believe Fucked Up won the Polaris Prize over Metric. I don't want to take anything away from them, but come on...
andredesorel Fucked Up gagne le prix Polaris 2009. Une victoire aussi musicale que politique? http://bit.ly/341lFQ
simfz So proud of my bro and Fucked up for winning the Polaris Prize! The first time all year my mom has stayed up until 1230am.
LexStoymenoff gotta love Canadian music awards "galas" - at #polaris the winners come up on stage with pants undone and chugging a beer.
wwkuwl .@mtvnewscanada Well, the Polaris Prize just took a big dump on their credibility factor. I guess Patrick Watson couldn't win again so soon?
Dissentertainer I hope they aren't the best Canada has to offer RT @Guttersniped Polaris winner announced - Fucked Up. Both sad and predictable.

CONGRATS
A MILLION CONGRATULATIONS
mike where were you?
Congrats. Those are some choice tweets indeed.
my fave would have to be this so-called tweet from Metric, the pride of ESA:
Wow, Pop-Core takes the Polaris prize! Surprise!

ahahahaha my copy of no pasaran just tripled in value!
thank god Metric didn't win. They already have enough money. Plus, they sound like a bag of dicks
hey i hope you really do what you said, or were 'quoted' as saying about the benefit record and all....i'm a native dude, artist type and most of my stuff is political...
if you really pull that record off, hopefully it'll help to change something.....glad someone finally noticed.
Thank god you guys won. I'm sick of soft "indie" music winning all the time.
please do something cool with the money like funding a neverending tour.
yo fucked up, i'm really happy for you and i'mma let you finish, but
why that is just bloody brilliant. :D
Congrats dudes. Can't wait until Halloween.
Congrats. Try not to waste the 20k :).
Congrats!!!
SO HAPPY FOR YOU GUYS!!
well, sad as it is, the response is maybe inevitable. Either way, Chemistry is my favorite album of the last two years, and I'm really happy for you guys, and encouraged that the jurors deemed it winner! Congrats!
found a pretty good blog entry about this... battlehip.com i think?
Congrats to Fucked up and props to the Polaris Prize jury for making the right decision even though it has pissed off the oldies.
