:) That was a nice one. One thing though, she wasn't born in France. Seems that people are often confused about "French Canadians" - understandably I guess.

Other than the geography mistake, some very nice press.

Yeah, it's always nice.
 
The best article I've read was one written by a guy in a Brooklyn paper IIRC, one that was a bit more music oriented. That's the first and the only time I saw a journalist who actually put the emphasis on the technical stuff like her belting while hanging upside down and spinning and kicking.

I always love the Cirque music and the band. It is always memorable.

I notice that you can even have a 'Cirque' theme for Chrome...

Yes nice! We want a video!
 
So, as the article stated,  Rains better half is opera trained, but played in a metal band in Montreal.
Did you play guitar in that band Rain?
 
Anyway opera and guitars reminded me of Nina Hagen:

Worth watching.

Nah, I didn't play w/ them. But they kicked some major butts the few times I saw them. I wasn't really into big metal that much back then, but they have an interesting angle. 
 
She sings pretty much anything from opera to the obvious Joplin to Zeppelin, AC/DC, Maiden and beyond.
 
As for Hagen, I think she provided much of the inspiration when they developed the vocals for the snake lady act.
