The studly and alluring Chris Barry is pulling an Occupy Petit Campus tonght and it’ll only cost youze six bucks to hear all da hits.Barry, a curious fellow with a twisted sense of humour that some (ok, all?) can’t appreciate, has been astonished to discover that the world has suddenly considered his music quite brilliant.
“I don’t know if it’s because of the 222s or what but I must get about two emails a week from people who just discovered my stuff now and love it. It's crazy. All my old records, including the Pillbox record that I made a million years go and sold 5,000.”
"My friend got it for $2.99 but now I see it on Amazon UK for 76 pounds and people are buyin’ em. Slip Into the Crowd, the 222s first single, I saw somebody sold it recently for $130,” he told Coolopolis.
So yeah, the point is, hurry up and get your ticket because with the way stuff has been inflating around this guy you’ll be paying $400 to get in if you wait.
I am old enough to have seen the 222s play ! Chris Barry was really charistmatic, it's a mystery why he didn't become the next Mick Jagger. You can see old videos of theirs from an old Montreal cable channel on Youtube.
