pittsburgh - 50bones420 - 08-10-2009

Re: pittsburgh - Tthip - 08-10-2009

Call the box office maybe: 412.456.6666


And this is a pretty interesting write-up on the Pittsburgh website:

Recorded in 2008’s year of continental excess and governmental Spending Gone Wild, The Tragically Hip’s latest album, We Are the Same, brings its listeners something beyond the unexpected: actual hope. Gord Downie’s lyrics—backed by a band ripe with confidence and skill—tackle what we might assume had passed far under the bridge. Should a first listen be given to a person recently hatched from a time capsule, or a pod sent from beyond Mars, she might believe that our essential uniting tenet, faith in humanity, still exists. We are, indeed, the Same, and when this is recognized, a bit of that space between us all shrinks.

This write up is the first paragraph of "Coming Clean at the Bathhouse" by Joseph & Amanda Boyden from the liner notes of the album.

I thought it sounded too good for some intern at the theatre to come up with.
