I saw the Hip in Salt Lake City on the last Saturday night of the Olympics. They played at University of Utah in a relatively small venue. (maybe a thousand people) We got to the venue about 2 hrs early, and I was front row centre, as it was standing room only. The stage was about 2' off the floor, and I could have reached out and grabbed the mic stand from Gord. I had to lean back, to get a decent picture of him he was so close. Seeing the Hip in a small venue is an amazing experience if you are a music fan. I wish I could have landed a few tix to their Mac Hall shows. Whoever gets to go, will rave about it.
