THE HERALD Wednesday Septembers ISM Nightfall ousted in semifinals By ARMOUR Thomson News Service TORONTO Halton Hills rock band Nightfall failed to get to the finals of the Rising Star talent competition at the Canadian Na tional Exhibition But if the band purpose in the contest was to get its name out they are already win ners Playing at the CNEs bandstand gave Nightfall its au dience and exposure in a music market with greater recognition potential than local gigs in the Acton Georgetown area Right now it s safe to say that we re happy to have come this far said guitarist Mike Whaling shortly after the band completed its four minute performance at the Rising Star semifinals Every little bit helps said drummer Greg Hagan adding that the band did not enter the competi for the money split five ways the first prize buy a decent electric guitar nor for the Club Monaco T shirts nor for the adoration of an already loyal but small following What this energetic and hopeful group of guys wanted from the competition most of all was ex posure And although there s more exposure if you win they wouldn t snub the free promotion afforded by the competition We re serious says Whaling of the competition But we re not so serious that wed get peeved off Know your igloos It pays to know what an Igloo is Seven Halton children in eluding two from Georgetown correctly identified an Igloo as a recyclable waste container Jay Duval of Chelvin Drive and Chris Goodhew of Sargent Road both win shirts for their ef forts in the Regions guessing game The grand prize winner Lauren Cooke of Milton

WORLDWIDE if wedidn twin nods adding I m just glad to be here Another reason for the contest and another reason for calling their competition bid a success is the band s desire to begin honing their style to find a comfortable niche in the rock music spectrum That spectrum includes cover bands playing a mixture of original and well known songs and tribute bands impersonators of already famous groups The band members three of whom are still in high school fear that pretending to be someone else could make developing their own music and giving it the exposure they want all the more difficult Having already successfully run the gauntlet of the preliminary Rising Star competitions band members Hagan Whaling Tim Trevor Kemp and Dave Haffey were eagerly awaiting the results of the second tolast com petition hurdle and discussing future plans Those plans include getting their foot in the door of local bars and developing a name as a cover band Even before the results were announced and their rising star was briefly withheld the band was already looking forward to per forming at the Georgetown Fall Fair Sept 8 Georgetown own Nightfall lost out in their bid to become stars In the
