After the awkward interview he did with the CBC’s “Q”, Canadian fans booed him when he and his band opened up for Willie Nelson on Thursday. Audience members took exception to the fact that Billy called Canadians “mashed potatoes without the gravy” in regards to their lack of enthusiasm at shows.
Billy tried to explain the comment was directed at the shows host, but fans didn’t buy it. Consequently, Billy’s Boxmasters have announced that they’re cancelling the Canadian leg of their tour.
A sad announcement for Canadian fans. Now they’ll never have a chance to pelt Billy with shoes, water bottles or any other heavy, blunt object. Who are they going to throw their loose change at now?

What is Canada blaming Billy Bob for besides sucking?
Canadians could always throw their change at Avril Lavigne.

In response to this post interview “controversy” it was Billy Bob was the one who got him self into this interview “mess” to begin with. If I were the interveiwer, I would have cancelled it right than and there to cool off every thing. Never the less you… Read more »
Everyone just likes to ignore that his old pathetic fucking ass was STRUNG OUT ON DRUGS THE WHOLE DAMN TIME! He’s a piece of crap that has sucked for years! Why do people even give this guy a chance anymore? How in the hell did he get to touch Halle Berry? (sp?)
Billy Bob is a moron and should shut his pie hole. He needs to be checked into a mental hospital. Stupid f**k.
