I have seen the Hip 17 times ! Every time except for 1 was a great show ( i was so drunk i couldn't stand ). New Orleans is sinking is a good tune, but I have some favorites, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o6QDjDPRF5c http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPJ2rcYQC88&feature=relmfu http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85k4RxqRyv8&feature=relmfu

I staggered upstairs to bedroom and my CD collection. The "T's" are located where I need to get on my knees to look. Sure as shit, I have the Tragically Hip "Road Apples" CD. Staggered back downstairs and got it playing now as I type. Must have had some reason to buy it. Heard them on Brave New Waves early 1990's.

Nice to see the Hip finding fan appreciation in such a loquacious and astute, musically sophisticated group as this. Definitely a flavour of their own. The coked up critics that have been known more than a few times to brand them as a low rent REM knockoff just don't get it. Their recordings may rest in some of the same living room CD shelves , but Gordie's improvising lyrics at live shows and the band's ability for blending spooky dark tones with lighter melody are priceless. I saw them in Saskatoon just once and it rocked. Now, Steamer has set the gold standard for loyalty here. 17 times ? Jeebus I am So Hard Done By
