wow i hope this goes down im so excited
I think there has really only been three shows in Kingston since the Hip really, really broke the scene, prior to their bar band days.
Without looking, I believe 2004 Across The Causeway, 1994/95 Day For Night Tour, and 1993 Richardson stadium??..........At least I think.
Hip talk aside, it will be very interesting to see what other names Kingston will now be able to get with the new arena. The John Labatts Centre in London sure has drawn in some great concerts since it has opened. Granted it is larger.........but still its going to be interesting.
i get the feeling they played at Fort Henry at some time too (i want to say 1992/1993?).

I think the only reason they haven't played here in awhile is because we simply don't have a stage that can support them (literally, i have bad mental images of them trying to hang the screens from the rafters and it collapsing on Gord). The Memorial center is absolute crap for pretty much everything (terrible build, acoustics, ventilation, everything), so i can imagine this being the reason.
They've all played here with individual projects within the last couple of years, and are still pretty active in the community, so that seems like pretty much the only reason they haven't played here recently
