Barenaked Ladies really wanted to be on the cover of
NOW Magazine.
“You know, we were 20-year-old kids from Toronto,” says singer-guitarist Ed Robertson. “Getting on the cover of
NOW was a huge fucking deal for us.”
Before Robertson and his now-departed-BNL co-leader Steven Page made that dream come true in 1991, they’d set up with their acoustic guitars and busk in front of the
NOW office on the Danforth.
But it wasn’t just
NOW. That was their go-to move.
