I went to the 2nd Edmonton show on the 30th, and apart from missing Poets, The Darkest One, and Little Bones, it might have been the perfect set list for me.
At the 100th Meridian - the first Hip song I ever heard...on 8 track
50 Mission Cap - the song I can't help belting out full octave every time I hear it
Fireworks - fun, peppy, up-tempo sorta love song
Ahead by a Century - defines a very important turning point in my life (for the better)
The Last Recluse - the most recent Hip song I've fallen in love with
Not to mention Wheat Kings, Scared, Bobcaygeon, Grace, Too, Greasy Jungle, New Orleans is Sinking, and Blow at High Dough.
Rexall almost collapsed into itself when they played Courage. It is all as surreal today as it was Saturday.
