Where have you seen the Hip the most? - emperor penguin - 03-02-2017
Mine would be Copps Coliseum, or FirstOntario Centre as it's called now. Saw three shows there (2004, 2007, 2016).
Out of 23 shows I was surprised three was the most times I'd seen them in one venue.

I've seen them nine times and always in different venues. Except for Rexall Place, twice. If it goes by city, I've seen them the most times in Toronto. At SkyDome, Molson Amp, Air Canada Centre, and Fort York.

I have seen them 4 times in Montreal, all 4 were at The Metropolis.
I have also seen them 4 times in Charlottetown; 3 on the Waterfront for Festival of Lights / Big Red Canada Day Fest / Whatever they chose to call it that year, and 1 time at the Charlottetown Civic Center.

I've seen them somewhere in the 40-50 times range, should try and add it up one day. Majority of those shows were Ottawa, but all different venues (or types of speedways). Second would be Kingston -- I don't think I missed a Kingston show from DFN at the Memorial Center through to last August. KRock may be the venue where I saw the most shows. Coolest place, Irving Plaza in NYC on Trouble tour -- nothing special about the venue, but was a fun day in the city. Nicest, likely Flynn Theater in Vermont, maybe the Syracuse Theater as second place.

The vast majority of my shows were in Toronto, including 10 at the Air Canada Centre. Copps in Hamilton takes second.
Smallest was the Supermarket. Largest was Downsview. Coolest was the 9:30 Club.

I have seen them all over Ontario, but always at different venues. Usually whatever shows were cheapest/weekends and GA floor when I could find it..
The only venue that was twice would be Harris Park in London, ON. Saw them play both Rock The Park Festivals there..

I've seen them close to 40 times, but I honestly don't know the exact number as I lost count after 30. The venue I've seen them the most in would be the Saddledome in Calgary (x4), followed closely by the Somerville Theatre in Boston (x2) and the Fillmore in San Francisco (x2). Other than those, every other show was in a different venue.
By far the best place I've seen them was at the Gorge Amphitheater in Washington State for the '06 Sasquatch Festival. Such a beautiful venue.

I've seen them 22 times, 8 of those in Ottawa; 4 at the Corel/Scotiabank Place/Canadian Tire Centre, once at Bluesfest and 3 times at the NAC. I've seen them 3 times at the Rochester Auditorium, which is probably my favourite venue to see them at.
Re: Where have you seen the Hip the most? - carebread - 03-02-2017
K-Rock & ACC (thrice), Kingston and Toronto tied at 4 each.

Lots of variation is good.
it will be forever known as Copps.
Re: Where have you seen the Hip the most? - Moof_Milker - 03-02-2017
ACC in Toronto = 3 times
BluesFest Ottawa (when it was at City Hall) = 2
Showplace Theatre Peterborough = 2
No other repeat venues for 13 other shows.

Haha :thumb: I was thinking that too as I look at this thread. The variation over the years is great.
For an arena venue, I think Copps is the best venue I've seen them. Every show there, including from this last tour, was incredible.
