That was me. I've grown a bit of a shag since the last time we've crossed paths.
I went back to around the soundboard after the show to see if you boys we're there, just because I assumed that's where you would be. Oh well, I guess I'll see you guys at Hip Show #11.

I knew that was you.(no one believed me).Could tell by your arm flailing.

How was the drop off live? It's my favourite off WC and I'd like to know how well it was done so close to home.

Funny that you mention that. :lol: I was just gonna write that The Drop-off was AWESOME on Monday night. The Hip friggin' belted it out with merciless force! He replaced Dylan with Young throughout the song. :) :)

The highlights of the show as far as I'm concerned were Ocean, Grace, Drop-off, Rink, Blow, Family Band, Fiddler's Green (just because it's the first time hearing it), and NOIS (because it came close to falling off the rails at one point but they held it together haha).

Another Downie setlist... love the Fiddler's Green chord progression and lyric reminders.
Fifty-Mission Cap is listed as the final song, although they played Blow At High Dough instead.
