I am so glad someone started a cool conversation for today cause work is not a lot of fun today.
My buddy had a huge Green Car we called the Pickle...one day we were cruising in the pickle and on came the Fully album...Locked in the Trunk of a Car really grabbed me. I bought the album that weekend and became a moderately interested fan.
It wasn't until I saw the Hip live in Kamloops on the Day For Night tour that I became a big fan. They are so amazing live. We jumped the baracade and got down to about 15 feet away from the stage. When they played Nautical I knew I had my favorite song and, as I have mentioned in previous posts, they played a fired up Werewolf, baby in the encore.
And finally, I became a huge fan when, on the IVL tour, I met the boys in Vancouver after the Queen E show. They are such great guys and so warm and welcoming to conversation...it was 2am so there were only about 6 people left waiting for them so I was pretty spoiled. Out west, we don't have the chances to interact with the band like you folks do out East, so I feel lucky to have had the chance to meet them even once.
Great post, especially for a tough Monday
