Eric Johnson also was a guest in their Symphony show in Toronto (a quick clip is shown) One of the big reasons they didnt want Ian to play guitar in Velvet Revolver is because it would take spotlight away from Slash.

Met Ian Thornley twice briefly. He played the bar I worked at two different times. He was nice and seemed down to earth. The second show he played his guitars were out of tune and he yelled at his guitar tech while on stage before taking a brief intermission. Some people might call this deva behaviour, but I took it as him wanting to put on the best performance possible for the fans that showed up. It was a small campus bar, around 400 person capacity and we weren’t even full that night. Any bigger acts would have been forgiven for not taking the gig seriously, but in speaking to him during that quick break I could tell that he played every show like it was his last. I respected that. Big love for Big Wreck and Thornley to this day.

Our Lady Peace, I Mother Earth, Sloan, Age of Electric, etc, and then all the awesome festivals that featured them. I still love all this music.

It's the Spring of 1998, and I had just spent an amazing week in Hawaii with great friends. After an overnight flight from Honolulu back to the mainland, once I get home, I turned on MTV while unpacking. Instead of the usual mindless drivel on there such as boy bands, rap, or The Spice Girls...No, Instead I see and hear Big Wreck and "The Oaf" video for the very first time. I was mesmerized. I went out and bought the CD from Tower Records that afternoon, and have been a huge fan ever since. More recently, I saw them live in December. They are just as amazing now as when I first saw them. LIke others on here, I always thought they would be a superstar band all over the World. All Canadians I know tell me that they are that they are hugely "Big" over there. I'm so happy to hear that!! We love you Big Wreck, and hope you keep rocking forever!!

My brilliant little boy picks Mike Oldfield '5 Miles Out' & blew his teacher's mind! All of the other students picked really modern music. Lots of the students had questions for him about the song & what other songs Mike Oldfield creates. That ONE class is in the know about how amazing his music is. Tubular Bells IS fantastic. Even without a near plane crash! 😂😂😂 Metallica brings me way back to my childhood days. I was in my sundress, barefoot, playing with My Little Ponies blasting _my_ all time most favourite Metallica album '...And Justice For All' on my little ghetto blaster, I was 10 y/o! That album plays like a metal oprah & I LOVE it so much. Funny thing is I still have that cassette tape & neither me or my parents can remember where I got it from!

Nice background information on this great band. Seeing them live is mind-blowing! So great! Thornley is one the best rock front men I have ever seen. Insane guitarist and Cornell level vocalist all in one.

Ians music has in a way been a soundtrack to my life. Every album has songs that spoke to what i was going through. The break up coincided with a dark period and Albatross was at a time when i was coming around to feeling better. Albatross the song gave me inspiration that helped turn my life around. I am in tears as i write this.

Possibly the most overlooked band ever. It's a mystery how they weren't one of the biggest bands in the world

I saw them open for creed in February of 1998 at the trade winds in NJ. It was my first live show ever.
