Don Cherry: Television
built 268 days ago
Over his career on television, Cherry has generated significant controversy about both hockey and politics.[6][7] In January 2004, on the subject of visors, Cherry said on Coach's Corner: "Most of the guys that wear them are Europeans and French guys." This statement triggered an investigation by the federal Official Languages Commissioner, and protests by French-Canadians. CBC consequently imposed a seven-second delay on Hockey Night in Canada. He was somewhat vindicated when a study was published that showed the majority of visor users in the NHL were indeed French-Canadians and Europeans.[8].

Prior to Cherry taking the stage, a seven-minute video retrospective of some of the timeless Texas Troubadour's memorable moments on television was shown to pique the interest of the over 500 audience members that were in attendance. Backed by an augmented Skyliners cast of twelve, "Mr. Band of Gold" launched into a moving rendition of Without A Song, a light-hearted, jaunty version of Country Roads, and the reverie-filled Bob Thiele composition, What A Wonderful World.

Where in the world is Don Cherry? A live stage performance in Dallas? Perhaps a television or radio interview. Whenever the phone rings, you never know when or where Don will be jetting off to next.
