For a brief
period, channel 9 in Vancouver was operated by VTV (Vancouver
TV). Part of their morning programming was a show called Vancouver
Breakfast which ran each morning from 7:00 AM until 9:00 AM.
One of the show's mandates was to feature local music talent
and, through the band's association with Blue Lizard, the group
was invited to perform.
The group
performed two full songs as well as a couple of short segments
used as lead in music for a couple of segments. Performing at
such an early hour was quite a change for the band who have
far more affinity for the witching hour than the hour the cock
crows.
With the
show being just after Xmas, there were some children in the
studio for a segment they were doing on toys. While most of
the adults seemed confused by the full on onslaught of the band,
the kids were right into it and could be seen bobbing like mad
to the crazy beat of the band.
