Great on the Hip guys for doing this...they don't need the money...they could go south for a vacation with family....even though I get pissed about setlists (which at the end of the day isnt the end of the world) these guys are the greatest Canadian band of all time...period. My wife works with aboriginal children "at risk". A terribly sad situation that certainly doesn't get paid the attention it deserves. You guys are amazing for doing this!

Sometimes when I see pics of The Hip it almost looks like its Gord Downie and The Tragically Hip. Ive noticed a lot of pictures with Gord alone with other people and the rest of the guys together. Im not wanting to start shit but I hope Gord does not get LSD (lead singers disease).

And Twitter said this: "My cousin & his band are gonna play Knocking On Heaven's Door while Gord Downie sings"

Sometimes I feel its done this way so the other guys get the attention they rightly deserve, I think they know if they're all together alot of fans would flock to Gord.
I will not give up. My face is set,my gait is fast,my goal is heaven,my road is narrow,my way is rough,my companions are few,my guide is reliable,my mission is clear. I cannot be bought,compromised,detoured,lured away,turned back,diluted or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice,hesitate in the presence of adversity,negotiate at the table of the enemy,ponder at the pool of popularity,or meander in the maze of mediocrity. I will not give up,shut up or slow down....Blessed Be!

Man would love to be there for that...good for them
want to be a nobody without peer
want to be a thought that's never done
want to shake your faith in human nature
want to break the hearts of everyone
want to be your wheezing screen door
want to be your stars of Algonquin
want to be your roaring floorboard
want to break the hearts of everyone

The greatest Canadian rock band of all time playing in your school gym. That would be an amazing experience.

Still no updates on thehip.com regarding the details of the webcast. Seems like they're just flying by the seat of their pants with this thing. From what I've heard, the guys take the stage around 9:30 pm EST, so I'm just gonna make sure I'm logged into the Hip site at 7:30 Calgary time and keep hitting refresh until something happens.

O damn, nothing ever sounds good in a gymnasium. I can hear Gord saying as he did on Live Between Us. "Echos all around me"
