I'm not good at set lists but songs different from yesterday were Fireworks (lyrics slightly messed up), Man Machine Poem, Something On, Ahead by a Century,Scared, Nautical, Bobcaygeon

Not in any order here

Repeats from yesterday were Grace (opener), M@W, At Transformation and of course the FC album. I guess I've almost given the set list in a roundabout way.

Gord was a bit more animated. Even tried signing something passed from the crowd, but the pen didn't work. Ended Music at Work with "work! Work! F--ing pen work!!" - something like that.

Yeah, and it was 10.45 so I was hoping they'd come back out but no luck. Another good show; another handful of photos will be up soonish. Maybe with a bonus Jonathan Toews! I think he ended up in the background of one of my shots of Bobby.

That is awesome if Toews was there to see The Hip! :D

He definitely was. Bryan Bickell was also there, and some other dude who I never managed to ID because he had a hat on low over his face. I kept thinking it was Dan Carcillo, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't. I'm going through my photos now, so maybe one of them will offer up a clue. Last night Coach Q was there, along with Pat Foley (our announcer), and Kevin Dineen.

No dice on the mysterious maybe hockey player. Here are the photos, even fewer this time (still only had my phone). There was a woman there next to me both nights who had a very nice camera and says she's going to email me later this week and let me know about her photos, so hopefully we'll have good art soon. She is maybe a baser, though? She and her husband traveled from Calgary to see them and are planning to catch a handful of shows on this tour, so I keep thinking they're also here and I am just the worst at being social so I don't know about it.

Oh, I also have video of Nautical Disaster but I haven't watched it yet so I don't know if it's any good. I'll upload it if it is.

Basically a dream setlist for me, except Man, Machine. Might sound better this round.
I need 2 Kingston Tickets, please help.

DJ Brendan Canning from 8-8:50pm CST. The Hip were on stage promptly at 9pm. Gord D arrived on stage to perform the first 5 song, 30 minute set dressed in all black leather. He took off the leather jacket during the 3rd or 4th song when he broke a sweat. After returning from back stage for the album presentation of Fully, Completely, Gord had his shirt untucked and wore a cowboy hat for the rest of the evening. The HOB Chicago was sold out for a 2nd night in a row. The opener, Grace, too, was well received, but I didn't feel the wooden dance floor begin to shake until Fireworks.

Seeing and hearing Fully, Completely in its entirety is well worth the ticket price and any other costs associated with attending this show. While TTH has not chosen any deep album cuts for the 10 songs played outside Fully, Completely, the set list has been pleasing to those in attendance. While waiting in the merch line, the coat check line or the bathroom, I have seen nothing but smiles accompanied with words of satisfaction from those in attendance. A veteran fan like me is longing for something unusual I haven't heard in years. Regardless, my fellow fans and I are leaving the venue on a "Sherpa high". While I have heard the song Something On in the past, it brought me a rush of positive emotions and a tear of joy to my eyes. The unusual closer, Nautical Disaster, was energetic and surprising. On to Cleveland!

They have 3 versions of t-shirts for $30 US. (Got a shirt!). $35 Zippo lighters - 2 versions. The leggings and the puzzle are $5 cheaper online. They are selling FC single vinyl records and a FC book separately. I didn't see the price on those. I will check the Cleveland merch booth to see if I missed anything.
