OT, but Feist sung at the funeral for a friend many years ago.

Oh man, I'm totally going to their Victoria show on the 22nd, but it would be epic if they snuck in a show at the Commodore on the 23rd before the show at Rogers on the 24th.

Wonder if the extra day between dates is just a cushion of recovery for Gord.

There's no way the band doesn't Helijet and let the roadies take the gear across on the ferry.

I sure hope we sell the show out, I've talked to plenty of people about it and everyone seems interested in going and is looking forward to tickets going on sale

Worse news of the year. The Hip are a national treasure. This ex-pat is crushed.

The ticketmaster page is indicating for some venues (which I assume includes the Saddledome), the purchaser must show their credit card and ID, and enter with their party all at once (which would hopefully curb scalping).

I remember getting a sheet of the Hip's stamps that the article mentions. I still have them.

When I first heard the news I was really taken a back by it, growing up in Canada and seeing the hip live for the first time their music was always a soundtrack to my life in Calgary.
I've been consuming their music like mad this week and its amazing the memories it brings back. I feel even guilty that I had really stopped listening to the hip the last 10 years or so. I really hope those who have never seen the Hip live find a way to go to these concerts, this is a band that is meant to be seen in person.
