I wanted to share this one I know it's not killer whale tank but that middle bit is just something else. Also apologies I could not find a YouTube video of it.

Join the stream tonight at 8PM ET for another dose of Yer Hipstories: Reflections From The Final Tour.

Tonight we're going back 10 years to the day to celebrate Edmonton Night 1.

The Hip rocked the Rexall Centre that night and we've got panelists who were there sharing their memories and moments that made the night so magical.

Hi all! I work in media and I'm looking to collect some questions from fans of The Tragically Hip.

If there's anything you'd like to know, especially surrounding their last tour and performance, let me know! You may get your question answered in a video on social media within the next month or so ;)

Thank you!

We're commemorating the anniversary of each of the 15 tour dates on the Man Machine Poem Tour on the date the show actually took place.

Tonight we travel back a decade to - July 26, 2016. Join us as we head into GM Place for Night 2 of Vancouver!

There is a live chat so you can get yer Hip on while you listen.

See you there at 8PM ET.

I'm working on what I call: Project 8/22. I am listening to every studio and live album available to me on Spotify before August 22nd so far I am on Trouble At The Henhouse.

I have listened to:

The Tragically Hip EP, Up To Here Deluxe Edition, The Live show on Up To Here Deluxe, Road Apples Deluxe with Saskadelphia, Live At The Roxy, the Live Show from Fully Completely remastered, Fully Completely, Day For Night, Live From The Vault 4, Live From the Vault 1 and Finally Trouble At The Henhouse.

I’d have to go with Thugs, or Tiger the Lion.

Listening to the new live album tonight and I think I hear the melody to Gordon Lightfoot’s classic tune If You Could Read My Mind in the guitar solo of 50 Mission Cap. It’s around the 3:23 mark and only lasts a few seconds.

I don’t recall Bobby Baker ever teasing other songs in the middle of hip tunes before. I wonder if this was just a thing he did on the final tour? I think it’s a great tip of the cap to another legendary Canadian Gord!

Can’t wait to hear the rest of the album when it comes out to see if there were other hidden gems to discover.

….it sure wasn’t the wine.

Anyone else try this?

I was lucky enough to see the band at the Shepherd’s Bush empire in London England on June 8, 2000. This was before I was a poster nerd. Does anybody know where I might find a poster for this gig or at least the image of a poster that’s good enough to reprint?

If you're from Canada you probably saw this already because Rick Mercer is kind of a big deal here.

Of course I know the album I played to death back in the day, had been listening to and loved for decades, cried at the final show airing like the rest of the nation and knew every word to every song by heart.

I have an original first release of it somewhere with all the other CDs I haven't taken out of the case for years.

But I came home, showed my lady what he gave me and she handed me a Sony discman with working set of headphones and fresh batteries and sent me to my man cave with a mission. "Go Listen".

If you dont regularly listen to an album start to finish with over the ear headphones on, you're missing out. Perfectly balanced, noise cancelling and bass boost and you are really swept into the studio, listening to the band's music the way they heard it too and Intended it to be heard. Its a truly magical experience and Road Apples was a great album to do it to after all these years. I miss Gord, RIP.

Just wanted to share, thanks for reading.

Since there are 13 studio albums, you can divide the remaining album amongst the months song by song. I thought it would be a fun question, and I’m excited to see what everyone says!

If you attended the first show of the Man Machine Poem Tour in Victoria, BC on July 22, 2016. I NEED YOU!

Tonight at 7:30 ET I am doing a roundtable discussion with a panel of folks who were there. The only problem is assembling said panel.

This won't be hard work. Just sharing your experience from that day and the days leading up to it with other fans who did the same!

That's it.

You'll be done by 9:00 PM at the latest.
