Re: 11/26/09: Tivoli: Utrecht, Netherlands
Jesus fuckin christ......what a show!!
Long time fan...and evertytime the hip comes to Holland i go to one of the shows. This one tonight really blew me away, probably the best show i've ever been to. The sound was great, and i cant believe how good and intense the band played. I saw them two years ago at the same venue, and that time i was kind of dissapointed...but i cant believe how good they were tonight (i know, i'm repeating myself...but i'm still kind of buzzed).
Highligths for me were...pigeon camera, family band (that song really really does wonders live) and long time running (haven't listened to that song in quiet some time after years of extensive play) and morning moon (song of the year for me).
what a band, what a night....ok, enough

Hell yeah! What a brilliant show that was! It started early at 20:00 with a room that was only just half filled (we are not quite used to these early starts ) but after 15 minutes the place looked packed when all 1000 music lovers were in.
The Depression Suite.... man... what a song. A classic already.
The break was a bit of a downer. I don't like these long intermezzo as it takes away a lot of the atmosphere. But well, the second set was even more brilliant than the first. Long Time Running!!! M@W!!! Bobcaygeon!!! 100thM!!! A setlist dream came true.
Oh and credits to the 'handkerchief roadie' . Do you buy these things at local shops or are these real Canadian?
Roll on the Paradiso tonight! Hoping for 'Good Life' tonight.

Oh, I'm so glad there's video going up for this. I'm looking particularly rapturous and ridiculous in pretty much all of them. Awesome.

Re: 11/26/09: Tivoli: Utrecht, Netherlands
There were actually 1001. When the lady at the ticket booth told me they were all sold out, I said, 'I came all the way from Germany for this.' She gave me a somewhat-annoyed look and said, 'You just want one ticket?' After a phone call, she said 'Tonight we sell one extra ticket!' I was ecstatic.gazzpacho wrote:after 15 minutes the place looked packed when all 1000 music lovers were in.
This was my eighth Hip show, and acoustic-wise, I can't remember a better venue. The sound in Tivoli is extraordinary, to say the least. One of the finest versions of ABAC. Gord introduced it with something like, 'Sometimes you play a song so much and you think it's about the one thing. Then one day you realize it's about, the other thing. This is Behind By A Century (I guess he used the same intro a few times this tour?)
Courage was a lot better acoustic than I thought it'd be. By the time the acoustic set was over, people were practically moshing for Springtime in Vienna. During 100th, Gord started reminiscing about how he knew everyone in the crowd. "You there, with the big afro! I remember you! I remember when you said you were going to cut it, shave it down to the root! I said no way, man! This (pointing to his own bald head) is a 7-days-a-week job! I remember when they built this building! They said, 'we can't afford those green exit signs.' I said 'You have to, you have to put them in! How will the people know how to leave!?'
Also allowed crowd to strum guitar. When someone up front was able to form a chord upside down, Gord was genuinely impressed and had them form chords for him as he laid down and strummed.
Sinclair was really in the zone; he also must've noticed the amazing acoustics in there. Highlights for me were Don't Wake Daddy and Pigeon Camera.
I noticed they haven't been mixing up the setlist too much in Europe. Kind of unfortunate, but I guess it's expected. Great show, great audience- surprising number of Dutch who are die-hards. I had a great time in Utrecht overall- great people there. Unfortunately, I can't say the same for Amsterdam- I wasn't even able to get a ticket

Nice! It may have been the same woman who sold me mine, actually. I had already purchased one, but there was some kind of mail mixup so I didn't have it in my hands. I told her that I'd bought one, offered to show her the receipt, said I came all the way from Chicago for the show, looked really sad, and she was kind of enough to sell me another even though it was sold out. So I paid twice for this show, but it was absolutely worth it. I did look around for you, but am basically too short to see anything or anyone that's not right in front of me. Glad you made it, though it's too bad about Amsterdam. That was also a really good show.There were actually 1001. When the lady at the ticket booth told me they were all sold out, I said, 'I came all the way from Germany for this.' She gave me a somewhat-annoyed look and said, 'You just want one ticket?'

Long Time Running again, from a different spot
Nautical Disaster, though it starts with the end of Bobcaygeon, with Gord laying on the monitors as the audience plays his guitar.
