Question for the Irish Hip Guy
#1

Hey, here's a question for IHG. After searching, I saw that you were at the Whistler show, and saw all the new songs live. You've also gotten to listen to the final product (the review has made me even more excited for this record)

So here's the question -- do you remember what songs were played from IBE and what they were called on the setlist? There are the obivous ones, like Forget becoming Vaccination Scar and Gus, Makeshift, Beat, etc. But what about ones like Fighter, You, Dancer, and so on.

Curiousity is killing the cat on this wet afternoon. I'm sure other people here are wondering the same (which is why this is a general post insted of a PM). Any help would be sweet!

Cheers

Pat

Hey ..

Good question... and that was one that was running through my head as i listened to the album.

The obvious ones were of course... "As Makeshift As We Are", "Gus", "New Orleans Is Beat" and Josephine".

To my relief Ballroom is listed as "You're Everywhere"

I listened closely to hear if any of the songs i didn't know contained any lyrics such as Fighter, Paint, You (pretty generic one), Cook and Dancer.

I am pretty sure Vaccination Scar was played as "Forget". I do remember hearing a song that rocked with slide guitar and that would have been it.

I couldn't really peace them together as well as i would have liked. I was especially listening for "Fighter" as it was such a good song. My friends and i were all really hoping that it would be included.

In my listening i don't remember hearing "Dancer" or anything to do with "Cook or Cooking".

It Can't Be Nashville Every Night & One Night in Copenhagen did sound familiar.

I am %90 sure that Summer Is Killing Us wasn't played.

I really wish that i had the cd booklet with it but it just contained a burned cd with a track listing. Gord's lyrics are a lil hard to make out sometimes as you all probably know.

When i was listening, i tried to gather as many notes as possible but the excitement was pretty hard to contain so i just sat back and cranked it the 1st time through and took more notes on the 2nd listen.

Hopefully when i get a chance to look at the lyrics i will be better able to wrap my head around what was played and what wasn't but i think i am pretty close.

This may or may not be what you are looking for but i hope it helps.

If i get a chance to hear it again i will pay extra special attention to that so i can better answer the question.

Thanks! That was probably far better than I could do from memory. Mayhaps the Hip themselves will aid in the solving of this mystery. Here's hoping more will come back

Cheers
