Continued from pg. 1 "I found out I won on April Fools' Day and at first I thought someone was joking with me, that my friends were busting on me," added Perry, a volunteer for St. John Ambulance. A private security firm and Halton Police made sure that non-invitees weren't able to crash the party, although Perry doubts that many people would have even heard the fully plugged-in show, given the rural location of his parents' farm. Perry admits he lost his composure a couple of times, especially after the way the concert finished. When it appeared the band had played its final encore, he began playing the first few notes of their hit Big Me and the band dutifully followed along. "Two weeks ago I was working on the farm, dreaming about playing in front of 80,000 people. Then for two-and-a-half minutes, I was the lead singer for the best band in the world. It's still unreal to me even though it happened a few days ago now." Others at the concert included staffers from Waterloo-based Research In Motion, which put on the BlackBerry contest, contest winners from Toronto radio station 102.1 The Edge and the band's road crew. "It was pretty crazy to say the least," said Pina Crispo, the Edge's promotions director. "I can't imagine any other band of their magnitude doing something like this, the way they interact with the fans is just amazing. They're really down-to-earth people and this was the perfect setting." Founded by former Nirvana drummer Grohl in 1994, the Foo Fighters have sold over 20 million records. Their latest release, Wasting Light, was recorded in Grohl's garage and rocketed to the top of the Billboard charts last week. The stop in Hornby was the third on the band's Garage Tour after visits to Washington, D.C. and Yonkers, N.Y. last week as they ready for a tour of Europe this summer. Weather plays havoc with cleanup The Hornby Area Rate Payers annual cleanup day fell victim to Saturday's rainstorm and has been rescheduled for Saturday, April 23. The event will begin at the Hornby ballpark at 9 a.m. The clean-up has been ongoing for two weeks by some homeowners as well as staff at the TransCanada Generating Station and Bahr Saddlery. Saturday's cleanup will be followed by a barbecue in the park. The town-wide Community Cleanup day scheduled for Saturday was moved to Sunday and a few brave souls turned out in even worse weather in both Acton and Georgetown. 700& ...
