Bold face prediction: The three new songs played will be the singles from this album.

1/3 so far

Cheers,

Pat

I hope so, Rink and Ocean might be in my top 5 fave hip songs of all time. They're that good

So since they were webcasting the rest of the festival, did anyone capture the Hip's set?

(it's probably in the Austin City Limits thread but I haven't been reading it...

)

*EDIT: Nevermind. I read the thread. Sucks that their set didn't get webcast. Would have loved to see another performance of Yer Not the Ocean...

Great to see the boys after almost two years (last time was NYC in Sept. of '04). 7:30 might not sound late but when you've been shakin' it since noon, your perception is blurred, so I hesitate to make a concrete judgment of the new stuff. They were tight, though, as always, and Gord has been working on the mike stand tricks, but I was pissed that he played his lick-the-rigging game instead of telling us something during the Meridian break...

Fuzzy setlist matches hip.com one chancellor posted, though. Not so wobbly as it seemed?

I love this part:
"Karma is present — the one who leads Nickelback is now a guitar tech for the Tragically Hip."

I laughed at that line, but then thought about it and I don't get it. Wouldn't being the guitar tech for The Hip be a step up from being in really?? The pay might not be the same, but the music certainly is.
