Even though Fully Completely and Phantom Power are in heavy rotation on most of my playlists, I hadn't listened to Day for Night for quite a while until recently when I started re-visiting the Hip's back catalogue. Damn, what an album. Nautical Disaster is a ####ing masterpiece.

Beautiful cover by Sarah Harmer. We Are the Same is just a stunning album lyrically

What provider? My guide had 630-9.

I only set mine for an extra 30 mins and caught the whole show and then some. I think it went credits at about 910-915. Taped until 930.

The actual tv rating quoted later in the paragraph says 4 million.

4 million is the average over the 3 hours. 11 million is the number that watched any of it.

That's incorrect.

4 mil is tv. 11 mil is reached all platforms. But reached is vague. I'm curious what exactly it means.

I may have only set it to 15 after. I've been guilty of poor pvr choices before.

Not that it's a big deal I suppose, but I wish this thread would continue as a tribute to discuss the band and Gord instead of a pedantic talk about ratings. As exciting as that normally is.

I could have swore that's how Canadian ratings have always broken down, just like nfotiu described. Lower number's the average, higher number is how many people watched any part of it.

God forbid people discuss the ratings of one of the most important broadcasts on Canadian tv in the last 10 years!

I've made this mistake too many times. Playoff games that go to OT, F1 with weather delays, shows that get pre-empted by shows that get their full showtime after a sports broadcast... No way was I making that mistake with this. I gave it the full three hours extra recording to ensure I got every encore, and also the possibility of some kind of CBC recap or special coverage afterward. Y'all failed. Hang your head in shame.

No fail. Near perfection actually. I watched them walk down the stairs twice before. All the music is captured. I'm sure I'll watch it again over the course of the week.

Lol. Did you read the post you quoted?

But even if it was true, who cares? How is it relevant?

Oops. Should have quoted FKA. He deserves to hit a foul ball and smash out his own rear window.
