Default Canadian Music Hall of Fame

one day it would be nice to see Gord's 6 and 12 strings in there but my question is: does the actual building now exist? (char?)

http://www.cirpa.ca/Page.asp?PageID=...&SiteNodeID=66

i can't say i've been there or am aware of it...did it fall through, am i ignorant? lol

all i have ever known is the "virtual" HOF where Gord was inducted way back...Loverboy is up in 2009...i think it would rival Cooperstown and our Hockey Hall as far as being captivating...so many items that should be there...what else of Gord's should belong? his capo? the white suit? his Newport set list? (i love that pick showing the songlist)...has this thread been done? it seems obvious and quite a bit different than the Lightfoot suite decor one...this one extends to all Canuck artist's items. including Anne Murray's hair styling mouse/moose (sp), lol
