It was mentioned earlier this week, he's on the Today show tomorrow morning then performing in the opening ceremony. It was stated as fact, so maybe it was a rumour, but... whatever.

Now all we need is Anne Murray to really put Canadians to sleep. Maybe her and Buble can do a duet

The boringness would reach critical mass.

[SpongeG]

what about avril? she was the big star in torino lol

[bils]

i wouldn't be surprised to see steve nash as one of the final torchbearers.... the nba all-star game is this weekend, which means he shouldn't have any problem flying into town for tomorrow evening.... and they just played in portland last night

[touraccuracy]

^he ran with it about 10 minutes ago hahah

[WarrenC12]

Nash just ran with the torch.

[SpongeG]

oh.... oops. did they announce he was gonna run with it? didn't hear anything about it until now

Apparently the track list for the "Sounds of 2010" has been leaked. But I can't find it

I think people are throwing out random rumors. If you search #van2010 on Twitter someone is saying how awesome the figure skating polar bear was

[SpongeG]

yes it was announced when they announced arnie they listed all the "celebs" who will run with it the final 2 days - matt lauer, buble, jann arden, walter gretzky, arnie, nash and some others

It wasn't really leaked

They were selling the CDs inside BC Place. I dunno why I didn't go buy one. I must've lost my brains after the amazement I saw.

Okay, I also want to start toning down the hype because all the hype can only lead to disappointment. So guys, just don't get too carried away.

[SpongeG]

i'm not expecting to be overwhelmed

[vancityrox]

The torch will be on granville and georgia tmr at around 7-8 am...i saw a sign stating it on the corner near the Transformers poop!

So, there was no figure skating polar bear, right?

no comment. hahaha. don't believe everything you read on the interwebs, at least not in its entirety.

[SpongeG]

[invisibleairwaves]

Lots of rumours flying around about Rush playing the opening ceremonies...I'm a bit of a Rush geek so I'd enjoy that.
