wouldn't be surprised if they start cancelling some shows this tour
whoever is giving these guys advice is a moran
Maybe just a coincidence but right now, if you go to TM, the Montreal show is not on sale?

my experience with stubhub is to buy a day or two before the show(instant download)
in some cases i waited till day of the show only to find tickets actually went up

is it safe to assume that the remastered vinyl will be for sale at the gigs?

Ok $117 for the Hip ticket. Ok lets round it out 5 guys, divided into $117 is around $23.50 a guy then divide it by the 2 hour show and you are paying each of them $11.75 an hour to perform songs that there is no way in hell you can play by yourself. Its almost like you are underpaying them.

If they were playing for me and me alone in my living room, then maybe that might be underpaying them. But factor in the thousands of other people and the songs the band can now play in their sleep, that money would go a lot further seeing the next Hip in a tiny local venue instead.

They are always playing for me and me alone, in the venue inside my head. I actually don't give a crap if there are 10,000 other people there. They are playing for me.

Well, we're less than two weeks away from opening night of the tour. I'm thinking that since an opening act hasn't been announced by now, that we might very well be getting "An Evening with The Tragically Hip"!

Perfect, 24 songs and 12 of them are pre-determined. The "Evening With" concept ain't what it used to be (compare setlist lengths/variations from 2000 to 2009 and 2012).

Setlist fantasy pool!

I'll slap $500 bucks down on the ultra rare We'll Go Too! Any takers?

Heard it before! Second night at Fort York, 2006. Best concert I've ever been to.
