This is it, the industry enchilada, where drinks flow, opinions fly and the rankings of Who's Who In The Business gets shuffled before your very eyes. The CMW tradition continues apace with this red-letter event, a perennially sold out Gala dinner that brings out the biggest players in the industry and subjects to equal parts mockery and Kudos. If you haven't been here, you haven't been to CMW.
Our 2006 edition, hosted by award-winning Corner Gas star
Brent Butt, was an evening of great entertainment with feature performances
by David Clayton Thomas and more, as well as a tribute to the 2006 Canadian
Music Industry Hall of Fame inductees - Canadian broadcasting icon Duff
Roman and famed music producer Bob Ezrin. Music industry
giant Denise Donlon was also be honoured during the awards as the recipient
of the Humanitarian Spirit Award.
One of Canada's best-loved country-rock bands, Blue Rodeo, were
also among this year's Hall of Fame inductees. Their induction
took place during the 9th Annual Canadian Radio Music Awards on Saturday,
March 4th.
