yep, another dutchie.....
A warm welkom, i feel right at home.
To come back to your question, I listen to my tragically hip cd's in Almere. Lived there all my life, but must say, it's not the best city to be living in (in my opinion).

Hey All!
Been posting for awhile now but haven't introduced myself yet, my oversight I assure you. My name is Aaron and I'm originally from Toronto, moved to the Hammer for 5 years for school and now I'm out here on the West Coast in Vancouver (Halifax came a close second Lance, Rory, High...really close!). Anyways I've been a fan since about '93 when I caught Courage on MM for the first time, way better than anything I'd seen on there so I just had to get the album (on cassettee too!). Never managed to see the boys for quite a number of years (not that I didn't try, too many weird happenings and circumstance to go into here) but finally managed to see them NYE '99 for the first time and realized that what everyone was saying was true, great live show, totally awesome!! Seen them quite a number of time since then including Lees Palace Olympic warm up, Gord's first solo show (kind of) at the Do What Arts Festival, in Hamilton, Toronto (many times), Rochester, Albany and Vancouver. My GF is a big fan too (thanks to moi and many bootlegs recorded probably by people here) and she approves of my habit, which is mostly harmless
Plus it gets us meeting cool people and travelling to many different places! Definately a habit worth keeping!!
Well that's about all for now,

Hey everybody! I'm Darren. I'm 20 and currently living in Toronto. I've been visiting the Hipbase for a while now, but I've only just decided to join the forum. I've been a Hip fan ever since I got into music (around Fully Completely era), and my love of their music has done nothing but grow since then. This summer has been pretty Hip packed, what with the Concert for Toronto and Edgefest. I've also started a decent collection of bootlegs. That's really all I've got to say for now, just though I'd introduce myself. Later all!

hey,
I am mike (obviously) I actually joined sometime in January while on a business trip but the connection was so slow that I was not able to post and forgot that I joined utill I had to clean up my e-mail at work.
I grew up in Northern NY and am currently in Atlanta Georgia with a stop in Virginia and St. Louis MO before.
I have seen the hip 25 times and just recently saw Gord's solo stop in Atlanta.
Other than that I pretty boring if above in not boring enough

Introduce yourself
Hello,
I'm Phil from Evanston, IL (Chicago area) and have been a huge hip fan for 11 years (road apples era). I've seen the boys 9 or 10 times and was at the Martyr's show after the common bootleg. That venue was awesome, holding about 200 of the Hip's closest friends. I've seen the Hip in Milwaukee at Summerfest and they played Inch an Hour for an encore (one of my faves). My fave album is Day For Night, and the first 4 tunes from the Martyr's boot just can't be beat.
Check out www.sonofdad.com (my band's website). Later.
