Things I have learned from this awesome thread:

- Metric ONLY plays live, and never ever in the history of ever would using a recorded track live.

- Metric is the greatest band in the history of all music.. perhaps the next Beatles.

- Tokyo police club is a close second.

- Not knowing who Metric is, makes you a complete music noob. So just go back to listening to Raffi LP's on your Fisher Price record player.

- And my personal favorite, anyone who does not like either Tokyo Police Club or Metric, is automatically a hardcore Nikelbak fan, without exception.

Awesome!

Who has actually said any of this? The mainstreamers have been just as ridiculous, if not more so. Examples:

- Metric are a band that nobody has ever heard of
- If you like Metric, you're probably emo and wear skinny jeans
- Anyone who likes Metric is an effeminate, pretentious snob, who doesn't get what real Canadians want to hear at their hockey games
- arloiginla has a degree in music and thus is an expert on everything related to music
- The only people who liked Metric were probably drunk
