Steven Page's voice adds a lot of appeal to the BNL songs. He belongs back on stage with band. Without him, it's like a starfish with a missing arm.

[@ghostnote1678]

I'll be honest, I only tried one BNL album post-Page, and didn't care for it. But I do really like a lot of the stuff from Page's solo albums. His voice (and songwriting) is the biggest part of what drew me to BNL.

[@daelen.cclark]

It grows back?

[@jkap34]

Honestly, I think it's up to Stephen page at this point to rejoin. He's kind of selfish and dark for bnl, but I would welcome him with open arms back to bnl if I were ed. He wrote and performed songs like "the old apartment" that has helped me through my breakup. Talented individual and one of the founding members that's been through dark times.

[@paulb1988]

I couldn't agree more. They've had some cute songs post-Page but nothing even comes close to their hey day.

[@jasonthornton8349]

Yeah, I like more songs on the albums with Steven page on them than the newer ones, i definitely think he added flavor to the songs

[@migsyt]

Have to love Steve @ 07:30 "When I had a million dollars". The whole thing is joyous, and very sadly missed

[@Jakori1977]

I picked up on that as well

[@RCfromCanada]

BNL singing “If I had a Million Dollars” is a piece of Canadiana. It’s goes so much deeper than it just being a song. There are some truly Canadian moments, and this song back in 1990 or whatever it was, that was Canada. The whole country sang it together.

[@traceythompson1092]

The most Canadian thing aboot "If I Had a Million Dollars" is that our friends and family north of the border (which I have) call Kraft Macaroni & Cheese Kraft Dinner. 🇺🇸🇨🇦

[@jillmilnes7613]

The preshow interview the 2 did speak very fondly of each other and their memories... and the hugs....

[@CelesteKTheNewWaveRevue]

Yeah me too. I think it's just that they didn't want to say "we'll do it" and then not follow through on it. Kevin Hearns posted a photo of the band on his Instagram but Steven and Ed really didn't look like they were comfortable around each other.

[@gabe_s_videos]

By all accounts, they can at least be civil around one another. Actually becoming a family of choice again is another story.

[@kyotheman69]

Page voice is what they were missing from the band, glad to see him united with them, they needed Page

[@RainaEmms]

There is such a thing as chemistry in a band. Just proves how much is missed with Steve out. Hope they could come back together for more than this sometime before the "Old Folks Home Tour" at 70.

[@user-tb5ns7hc5i]

Steven made Ed LOL when he sang “when I had a million dollars” at the end.

[@Met182]

Steven just slides right back in like he's never been away. Sounded so good. If this is the last time we see them together then it was a special performance to go out on. Long live BNL and the Steven Page Trio!

[@ColinWilson1980]

I'm so with you. Hearing all of those voices together was cathartic!

[@Red7Ent]

Met182 has the band officially called it quits? I am aware that both Creegan and Page left, but with the release of Fake Nudes, I thought they were still making music (without the two aforementioned guys). Am I wrong?

[@Massamoto]

As far as I know this is the case.

[@Red7Ent]

Massamoto so the remaining four are still rocking on?

[@Deadowl87]

They're still going, and Steve has done some good solo stuff. I stopped following the band when he left, he wrote and sang most of my favorite songs.

Problems are everywhere but chemistry is undeniable.....please do a tour as the full BNL.

[@justinkrann7406]

I'm almost certain the bass player is the nicest man on earth.

[@DaShirtBoy1]

The happiness seen in this performance makes me cry tears of joy every time. If this was a one-off, it was a great way for Steven Page to say goodbye. If it was a real reunion, then it was a great way for Steven to say hello. Truly a bittersweet moment in Canadian history, right here.

They bring smiles to so many people's faces. I had the chance to meet them back in the days along with so many other Canadian artists like 54-40, The Waltons, Gowan, Blue Rodeo, Our Ladypeace, Headstones, Chalk Circle, Moist, Respectables, Junkhouse, Vovoid, etc... Lots of good memories... I have a funny story for you here... This was at a Bar/Venue called Bourbon Street Club in QC, Canada. I went there to see Blue Rodeo and was very tired because I came back home from Toronto the same day (6hrs drive) + the drive to that venue. So I arrived and saw one of my good friends at the consol and learn he was their new tour manager. So we sat the consol to enjoy the show. After that, he invited me backstage (they had a big stage outside instead of using the small stage inside) and we chilled there for a few moments. Very nice guys! Then my friend asked me "Wanna see our home?" (It's the tour bus and that's the only true privacy a band has when touring except for the hotels from time to time). So we walk in, and there is Basil Donovan sitting on the front couch. My friend says: "xxxx this is Basil, our bass player. Basil, this is my good friend xxxx". And me, very tired to say... "Hi Bass!" You should have seen Basil's face... I let you guess what went through his mind at that moment LOL. I then said: "Sorry, it's one of those days.... long drive from TO to home, then to here to see you guys". We all had a good laugh. :D

[@SkipdaZip]

Ed and Steven together made the BNL so magical.
