I would go to as many as you could. Sure you may see some repeats but the majority of older songs will be switched. I'm guessing you get some World Container, Music @work,  IVL stuff on Tuesday.

I was there on Sunday and it was fantastic. The Hip are a band I've really only followed in passing - I don't own any albums other than Fully Completely and Day For Night, but listened to a lot of their stuff because my parents listened to it when I was growing up, so for me it was a lot of recognizing things and just reconciling it with my childhood, so the fact that I didn't know any of the new stuff didn't bug me all that much.

 

I was very incredibly and happily surprised by Thugs and Locked in The Trunk of a Car getting played. Those are 2 of my favorite Hip songs and I was totally floored that I got to hear them.

Well, it looks like I'm going to two shows now. You talked me into it.   :)  I thought I was only going to one of them.

I am so surprised I received floor seating for August 3rd on Ticketmaster.ca right now.

I heard on CJAY92 that Chad Kroeger was having a kickass time at one of the Vancouver concerts. I think he was belting out New Orleans is Sinking, or some other song, at the top of his lungs. What a guy!

Man, The Tragically Hip forum design is straight trash. I've made 3 accounts so far in 1 weeks, none can be logged in even though the passwords are correct, and you cannot retrieve your password or account unless you message a mod.  <_<

Have you tried messaging mrlayance? If you're looking for periscope links or downloads from there, maybe I can help. I've logged in a few times on the hipbase forum since the tour started.

I'd like the periscope links thanks. 

Each email has been verified, I have all the passwords memorised & written down, but as soon as I log out i's impossible to get back in.

Yeah, I've never heard those songs from World Container and their latest album. I will have to buy those CDs.

They played your favorite song Gift Shop. I hope they play Now The Struggle Has A Name on Wednesday. That's my favorite song. It's cool that Gord dedicated that song to the First Nations people in Edmonton. A lot of First Nations people were in the crowd.

 

I have the full audio of Calgary 1. I will try to do it again tomorrow.

Hello,

 

I have been trying to copy and paste the links to here but for some reason it isn't letting me.  If you are on the titanic terrarium board  they have the audio from Victoria and Vancouver on there.  I believe they also just added the Calgary show too.   Great tour so far and I for one hope the rumored Buffalo show takes place as I would love to catch a gig on this tour.

I'm really kicking myself for not going to last night's show.  It's not like the tickets were easy to get by any means, but it sounded like an amazing experience.  Everything I've heard from friends who went makes me regret that decision.
