This is long - well longer than anything I ever want to read.
Well, here goes.
I have never really read anything about the Toronto concert - I have really tried to avoid it - ever since it was announced - and it turns out that it was a pretty damn good decision. (except the fact I decided not to go - damn I am pretty dumb)
About two years ago I got a surround sound system - and I got it home and put the speakers where they go in the room.
Well, about four weeks ago - I finally decided to hook them up - you see they have never been plugged in or anything.
That just so happens that was the day I was going out to buy the Hipeponyomuus set. Well, um, what better reason to have concert sound.
I got home and put in the DVD - and danced my ass off in my darkened living room to most of The Hip's set. Damn it was a great time. But then it was late and my wife was just about home, so I stopped.
Trust me I look pretty fly for a white guy dancing at a Hip show - and it is just as "interesting" at home.
Well, tonight was part two for me - and well, it was worth the wait.
My beautiful wife went out tonight.
First off - me and my buddies Jack and Diet Pepsi said hello and we headed to the second half of the show - I started at Poets - where our last experience ended. And Wow - boom - I love suround sound.
Don't tell me what the poets are doing.
What a great show - from old to new and back again.
I was blown away when it ended, with Little Bones - but then - cool second encore - I had no idea - Three Pistols ended it - great, great show.
Wait - what the hell - ANOTHER encore - THREE - damn - this show gets better and better - holy shit.
I had no idea they were anywhere near three encores - Blow at High Dough.
What a great night - What a great show.
And it went on, and on, and on.
Well worth the wait.
Thank you guys.
