I'm on their emailing list. I woke up and grabbed my phone and started looking, and "Oh, look! More news from The Hip!". Crap, what a kick in the gut.

I'm not so huge into The Hip now like I was 20 years ago, but they're still my favorite band of all time, and my goto music when I can't decide what to listen to.

My favorite concert was An Evening With The Tragically Hip. No opening acts, just The Tragically Hip. I think the show lasted for nearly 4 hours, with a 30 minute intermission. It was great.
