That's some kind of website... looks like it collects links of sites that have some sort of loose association with each other, or something like that.

How'd you find it?

-In '88 the HIP played Ottawa and Gordie sang a 3rd verse in New O. Does anyone know the LYRICS? All's I know is it includes "...with bottles of beer and rock n' roll to your favourite radio station..."

-Also, is it true that the HIP once played an extra phantom verse in Nautical Disaster? If so when and where? And are there lyrics?

I did a google search for "harper's ferry tragically hip" and that was one of the sites it returned.

I fixed the track - sorry about that.
Should work now.

I think the 3rd verse goes something like

"Pale as a lightbulb, hanging on a wire
sucking up to someone just to stoke the fire..."

I'm not sure how accurate they are cuz I can't find the song anywhere right now.
And I ain't downloading it fresh cuz it'll take me forever.
I so need a secretary.
