I've been trying to come up with the setlists for all of the hip shows that I've been to. I've found them all except for 3 of them. I've already checked the setlist index on this site and no luck there. Does anyone have any other ideas on how to find them? The setlists that I need are for the 02/19/1995, 07/15/1995 and for the 1993 ARA show in Calgary. I don't even recall the date for this one.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

48 days and counting until I'm front row at the Jubilee in Calgary. Can't wait!!
If I don't have it on the DB then I have no idea. It would be really cool if you could get some more info on the Calgary show. I would add it to the DB.
This is what I found on Google
1993 Calgary Alberta
Daniel Lanois and the Tragically Hip join Midnight Oil, Hothouse Flowers and Crash Vegas to record the single 'Land,' written by Jim Moginie and Rob Hirst of Midnight Oil; proceeds go to the defence of environmentalists fighting logging in BC's Clayoquot Sound.

ARA '93, Race City Speedway, Calgary: This show was amazing! Midnight Oil took the stage second last and blew everybody away. They were energetic, they were powerful, and their performace was nothing short of astonishing. I remember thinking, "holy shit, I can't believe the Hip have to follow the mighty Oils. How are they gonna top such an amazing performance?!" Well, the Hip answered my question right from the opening notes to 'Locked in the Trunk of a Car'. Gord comes out wearing jeans, a beat-up red shirt and sporting a full beard. He looked like a skinny Grizzly Adams. He grabs the mike and barks at the crowd "To me, you all look like Salamon Rushdie! This is called locked in the trunk of a car!" It was awesome! The rest of the show was just as good. The band was amazingly tight, and Gord went completely nuts. He was possesed. At times, he looked like an animal in a cage pacing back and forth. At one point, he tried to entice the people in the beer gardens to rip down the fences and join the rest of the crowd. He had us in the palm of his hand, and by the time their set was in full swing, it was obvious why the Hip were the headliners
Ring any bells?
Yeah, I found those remarks from the show as well. I remember the show pretty well because it was my first hip show, gordie in the red shirt with the beard and the comment at the beginning about Salamon Rushdie and Locked in the Trunk... But it's the rest of the songs that escape me. I'm pretty sure they played fight that night too.
Oh well, maybe I'll never know for sure. I do know that it was a great concert, but what hip concert isn't great.
thanks for the help.

If there's a tape for this, Rory would have it. If there's no tape in circulation it will be tough to find a setlist probably.
