It was so loaded with Hip references and lyric quotes that it appeared to be making Gord a lil bit uncomfortable... but certainly proved that Ron is one of us.
I ran into Ron McLean at The Hip's show at The Hummingbird Theatre in Toronto, 2002. He was very personable, and definitely a fan. When I get home tonight I'll post the pic of him and I.
During the Juno tribute video before The Hip performed Ron spoke about the band which looked to have been taped at the Juno Cup game in Selkirk. He had on The Hip's 2002 World Tour longsleeve shirt. He probably picked it up at the Toronto show in 2002 Chris mentioned.

Yeah it was a bit weird, very corny and kinda forced at times with him slipping in the hip references but it was cool to hear Gord talk about sports.
