note: sorry, I screwed up. This should be posted in non-TTH discussion. My sincere apologies. I fucked up. I just, fucked up.

Why isn't it tonight???? I have to go to a wedding in Newmarket and a reception in Tottenham tomorrow.

Weddings are the worst! They always manage to ruin something.
I'm going to stand by that comment.

Bad timing, I'm not headed to Toronto until Sunday.

The evening of May 10th:
- Received an E-mail from TTH regarding the concert in Charlottetown on June 30th...
- Told my friends about it, a couple of them were damn excited... One of them not-so-much... Apparently that same day his parents informed him that he was to go to his cousins wedding, no excuses... Yup, his cousins wedding was on June 30th... Best part is, his cousin told him that if it wasn't her own wedding, she would be going to see The Hip herself... :lol:
So yeah... I completely agree, and i'm sure my friend does aswell!

it isn't
- lilbones - 07-29-2006
It was, because I accidentally posted it there.
Now it's not. No big deal.
If anybody's down for the concert and sees somebody in the blue collared penguin shirt with a bunch of hair on his head, feel free to say hi.

This show was awesome. They played for well over an hour. It was great to see the huge crowd there, and I think that the number of people who actually knew who they were outweighed those who didn't. I can't wait to see them again.
Lilbones, I didn't see anyone in a blue collared penguin shirt, but I got there 10 mins late and got stuck at the back.

Was a good show, although not too varied from what they played on the 24th before the hip, except for they played more.
Here's the setlist, for those who are interested, in no particular order, except for the first song.
One Great City!
Aside
Watermark
Left or Leaving
Civil Twilight (new)
Sun in an empty room (I think, new, pretty catchy)
Manifest to close main set (with trumpet!)
The Reasons
Reconstruction Site
Plea for a cat named virtue
Our Retired explorer
Benediction (sans Sarah Harmer)
Prescience of Dawn
encore was:
Some Propagandhi song
My Favourite Chords
This is a fire door never leave open
and... Moon Window, or at least something with window in it, to close.
- grimes - 07-30-2006
Great show....the setlist as best I can remember it was:
1. One Great City
2. Our Retired Explorer
3. Watermark
4. Reconstruction Site
5. Benediction
6. Aside
7. Simple Twilight
8. Utilities
9. The Reasons
10. Plea from a Cat...
11. Sun in an empty room
12. Left & Leaving
13. Prescience of Dawn
14. Manifest
15. ??? (John introduced it as a Propaghandi song but I'm not familiar with much of their stuff and didn't recognize it)
16. My Favourite Chords
17. This is a Fire Door... (!)
18. Confessions of a futon-revolutionist
19. ??? (I'm guessing this another was a new song but I didn't catch the title)
At the end of the show I think John also mentioned that their new record would be out in October...
*edit...lilbones I see you just beat me to it on the setlist..ah well
- lilbones - 07-30-2006
Ya, but you remembered Confessions and Utilities, which i forgot in my haste!

Glad no jackasses booed them this time.
