Heck, I've even seen Fiddler's live.
I've never seen Fireworks.

But how long have you been going to shows?
I've seen Rink and Ocean twice, and expect to hear them both three more times each (since I'll be hitting upcoming shows in Indy, Cleveland, & Erie), but I've seen Fireworks
at least 10 times (and probably more).
Be grateful that you've been lucky enough to see Fiddler's in your short tenure seeing the Hip play live. I've been to 40+ shows and haven't seen it once.

(and I never really got IAGLIYDW)
I never really got Good Life either

This is a tough one based on the hockey references alone, and while I wasn't alive for '72, the first time I heard Good Life I knew exactly what Gord was talking about with the 'forget-yer-skates dream' line, as I experienced them many a time growing up (though as a goaltender, they were sometimes forget-yer-pads dreams).

never saw this live either - but one of my coaches used to say the key to the goal was how fast Henderson got back into the play after sliding into the boards
– that’s when the sliding into the end boards, get up, skate to the front of the net, deflect a shot drill would begin :x )
