See what happens when you have children?
Brains turn to mush! And you get wrinkles and time passes WAY too fast!!
But think how young the HIP will have us feeling, when they do ARA!!!!

Next summer to coincide with the "new album" that they are working on. Have to wait and see

Imagine a world before the "beginning was the word.”

I'm nervous around Downie but I am wearing the most outrageous jacket I bought at a second hand store (I'd describe it if possible, hand embroidered vines ... real hippy stuff). Downie says "nice jacket" and signs "Enthusiasm Conquers all, Gord Downie" I've taken this advice to heart many times over.
Great story.
Do you hang out with Spades? I dig the "Mafia Sting".

It was quite the jacket.

A warning to autograph seekers (as clueless as me). I had the Hip sign my concert ticket at that show. They all signed the back except Gord D who signed the front. Afterwards I thought I'd laminate it to protect it forever. The lamination made the front of the ticket go completely black. No more Downie signature. Cry
