This was posted earlier in the thread:

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

Is this the opening band?? That would be pretty cool.

I wonder when the link will be posted to thehip.com?? Thanks for posting it here, Vic. My sound sucks too but I guess it's better than nothing.

Remember folks, this is from Fort Albany, ON, not Toronto. I doubt the quality will improve.

If the Hip aren't playing an acoustic set tonight, I fear the new songs will sound about as coherent as MAv's "No Threat" video he taped from backstage at Salmonfest in '05

You'd think the audio would be a little better for a Hip production. Hopefully they'll patch into the soundboard for the main event.
