On a serious note, one thing I love about the Hip, and always have, is that when I leave a show, I'm usually saying "I can't believe they played (insert song)" rather than saying "I can't believe they DIDN'T play (insert song)" Now I know for some casual fans, this may not be the case, but for most of the people on this board, I'm sure that diversity is best!

Ha...funny....great subject....lots of room for some silliness
How about:
"I can't believe nobody is in the beer line"
"Are the String players in the orchestra pit?"
"I seen nothing but USA license plates in the parking lot"
"where is the big backdrop that says Tragically Hip?"
"do they use pyro during Fire in the Hole?"
"do you think Downie will play the guitar with his teeth during Highway Girl?"
"When is the last time Baker smashed one of his Paul Reed Smith's?"

This reminded of something I thought I'd never hear...while standing in the beer line at intermission on Friday night...
"Hey, I hope they don't play any new tunes after intermission"

"Have you heard the new Nickelback single?"

This is something that I actually did hear at the Thursday 14th Massey show. I was inline at the merch stand, and the guy in front of me asks to buy 2 of the hockey pucks. The vendor stops, and says she's not allowed to sell them until after the show. The guy asks why not? and the answer, "they were throwing them at the band the other night".
I laughed out loud and said no they weren't.......
Can you imagine? $100 ticket + $10 puck, to throw it at the Hip in Massey Hall.....
The poor soul wouldn't make it out of the aisle alive.

"is Gord having a seizure?"
"Why does Gord S. look like a chicken when he plays?"
"I hate when Gord rambles...."
"Why can't they just play a song EXACTLY the same as the studio version?"

Sadly, I know someone who went to the RIM show and seriously asked me the next day if Gord has something wrong with him ... she couldn't believe the way he "shook and flailed" on stage. She also asked if I really actually liked them lol!
