Pardon ? Get Back Again at ARA - I worked the show, watched both nights and don't remember that one...plus saw a bootleg of entire show?
anyone have proof?

Date: 07/24/93
Venue: Markham Fairgrounds
Location: Markham, ON
Opening Act: Crash Vegas, Hothouse Flowers, Daniel Lanois, Midnight Oil
Recorded: Yes
Setlist: Locked in the Trunk of a Car/ Twist My Arm/ Courage/ Fifty Mission Cap/ Eldorado/ Last of the Unplucked Gems/ Lionized/ Thugs/ Cordelia/ Wheat Kings/ New Orleans is Sinking/ Fully Completely/ Pigeon Camera/ 38 Years Old/ Three Pistols/ At the Hundredth Meridian/ Little Bones/ Get Back Again
Notes: Another Roadside Attraction. A rare appearance by an unreleased Hip song, Get Back Again, was made at the end of the show.
That setlist is missing the last song of the performance. There was a cassette boot of the show that made the rounds for a long time without Blow At High Dough, which was played after Get Back Again.
23 (missed the chance to see them for the 24th time on the current FC tour because I was out of the country on vacation). First time was ARA '93 in Edmonton. I would guess most of the higher numbers would be from people in Southern Ontario.
I honestly stopped counting at 30, but I'm sure it's closer to 35 or more by now. Last show I attended was the outdoor gig at Millennium Park in Calgary, September 2013. This current tour is the first one I've skipped in over 23 years, mostly because of the outrageous ticket prices and the fact that I was turned off by the sad state of their live show at the time. Judging by the recent reviews though, it sounds like they've got their mojo back, and I'm happy to hear it. I can say for certain that I'm done with the Canadian shows for now. But perhaps I'll try and catch them in the U.S. during the next album cycle at a smaller/cheaper show.
