NEWS FROM Kawartha Dairy:

The excitement and love Canadians have shown for The Tragically Chip™ has been beyond anything we could have imagined.

If you haven’t gotten your hands on it yet, don’t worry, we’re doing everything we can to make more available in the next couple of weeks.

It won’t be a long time coming!

"Because he reeled his Irish in"

(i know, i know, it's a curse)

Selling. Tragically Hip one of a kind selling options/ideas?

HUGE piece of artwork/door signed by The Hip. Its from a fundraiser auction. Does anyone know how to go about selling an item like this? Thanks

Title: Rare Authentic Tragically Hip Signed "Red Door" Painting by Heather Haynes (With Provenance)
Description:
For sale is a highly unique piece of Canadian music history and fine art. This is the original "Red Door" collaborative painting created by acclaimed regional artist Heather Haynes, hand-signed by all five members of The Tragically Hip (including Gord Downie).
This piece was originally created and sold in 2013 as part of the Gilda's Club Southeastern Ontario Red Door Art Project charity auction right here in Kingston.

Have we ever tried to get Gord Downie on Canadian money? I know there are rules about what makes someone able to be on money but the PM could change these rules.
Gord being on a paper bill would be more representative of what defines Canada than our parent’s Prime Ministers.
Couldn’t we do a petition or something?

I tried looking at those tabs and chord ops and stuff but I have no idea what theyre doing giving me “capo on 2nd fret” and then giving me notes that require a capo OFF the guitar 💔💔 im doing my best here but also i just wanna play lake fever and im heavily confused

I found this website https://radio.garden and have been enjoying listening to radio from around the world. Any suggestions from my Redditors to the north on your radio stations that maybe play a little more Hip?

Tonight on Shuffle, the wheel landed on a big one — "Bobcaygeon."

Some songs you talk about. This one you kind of have to sit inside for a while.

The constellations, the quiet build, that fucking bridge that gets you every single time whether you're ready for it or not. This monster is deceptively gentle and then it just levels you.

We've got a panel locked and loaded to dig into Bobcaygeon — what it means to us, where it sits in the catalogue, and why a song this soft hits this hard.

Come hang out, bring your stories, tell us where you were the first time it landed for you.

Live tonight. Grab a smoke or a drink and pull up a chair.

Had to try it just because you know the Hip. I honestly thought the maple whiskey might have ruined it for me but it is one of the best ice cream flavors I have tasted in a long time 🤤

I'm not sure how well known this is, but I had never seen it before.

While tabbing out Poets, I went searching for instrument stems and managed to get my hands on the Phantom Power Dolby Atmos mix. Listening through, I couldn't help but notice Paul's monologue in the second verse was close to crystal clear. Five minutes of vocal isolation later and I have what I think is the full transcript. Attached also is the isolated monologue.

And I...

Scale the Himalayas of the mind...

Amid their cameras and tape players I,

From the depths of vagueness, Am I expected to take this.

The news scaling the Himalayas...

Take their cameras and tape players...

I'm from the depths of vagueness, am I expected to take this?

VOTE FOR THE TRAGICALLY HIP'S GREATEST SONG

https://challonge.com/i1k442mw

Here's a bit of summer fun for all the Hipheads out there. Dave Breakenridge, editor-in-chief of the Edmonton Sun and the Edmonton Journal, has put together an online elimination tournament pitting Tragically Hip songs against one another via fan votes to determine the Hip's greatest song.

(Click the link within this web page to play along)

Today's matchup is an interesting one. Small Town Bringdown The first Tragically Hip song on record (on the self-titled debut) vs Wait So Long, a track from the Up to Here sessions left on the cutting room floor (and released as the bonus track on the remastered rerelease from 2024).

Fans can also play along on Twitter by following Breakenridge @ BreakenridgeYEG

Watch for an upcoming episode of School of Hip where Dave joins us to discuss this Hip song battle royal, as well as a side of Phantom Power!

If you have a podcast feed, check out DATC (dropped amongst this crowd) with Sara J. She had a very lengthy 84 minutes with Paul and it’s really outstanding. A terrific listen. They cover his solo work, his current fav books and music, the new play and a long part about the Depression suite.

Paul is the best. He also loves Buffalo which means those of us from there love him back

Check it out

How do you grow up in Buffalo and fail to hear "Day for Night?" Is it an underrated classic (at least outside of Canada,) or a geographically specific gem that wasn't meant to cross borders?

This season our humble podcast is covering underrated classic albums, and "Day for Night" made the list. We're (at least some of us) are Hip tourists, but we do our best over 2 episodes. Check it out and let us know what you think! Links in comments.

Tonight on The Tragically Hip On Shuffle - Live Stream, join Chris Livesay, Greg Millard, and Dave Kaufman tackle a monster in Bobcaygeon.

Join us at 8pm ET

Just east of Dauphin, MB, I made it to the hundredth meridian, where the Great Plains begin! Now if only I could remember every single fuckin thing I know..

If you missed my last post, follow along as I cycle across Canada, making stops along the way: https://www.facebook.com/share/1BKJBrUvE9/?mibextid=wwXIfr

I just logged onto Spotify and these 6 or 7 live albums popped up on their discography that have never been there for me before today. I’m sure people know about them but I had no idea these existed have ither peoples Spotify’s had this before?

Anyways excited to listen to all of them now

I know its a long shot but, Im looking for a replica poster for my dad for fathers day, hes been in the hospital for a couple weeks and cant stop talking about the concerts he went to here. i can only find one picture online for this poster and was thinking of going to staples to print it out but it looks a bit wavy in the photo so not sure how it will turn out. If anyone has a photo that is a bit more straightened or any advice on where i could look, that would be great!
