so good. everytime I see them they're better and better. after looking at my ticket stub last night I realized it was exactly a month after the Cleveland show.
I loved Gord's rant about his belt pack too......he just kept going on and on... so funny. I wish I could remember what he was saying... and he said something about his friend Ray?...
the response from the crowd during 100th was awesome too...goosebump inducing, even!
saw someone already posted this...but I ran into Jay McKee... (he's gonna be a dad in a month! scary!) lucky bastard had a backstage pass on his pants...shoulda lifted it from him...LOL... he was there with former Sabre Darryl Shannon (blast from the past!) we also saw Tom Askey from the Amerks there....
my friend & I were gonna try and head to the back to catch the guys but it was kinda crappy outside and we were starving... so our stomachs won out in the end.
oh yeah! found out Sam Roberts is gonna be in Buffalo again on November 20th (@ Sphere)

oops sorry about the syracuse mix up but that's what one of the other guys said outside after the show waiting for them to come out and that the hip were playing in burlington vermont next.
Nitemare74 - as for his friend Ray... i believe the lead guy running around fixing the mic's and helping change guitars... they call him Billy Ray. He's the guy with the cowboy type hat on. he changed Gord's mic halfway thru the show and he hands Paul the acoustic for wheat kings. i guess Gord was giving him kudos cuz he was a disaster with that thing falling off all the time!
it was rainy/misty out till 11:30 and then it stopped. it was chilly though!! but worth it to meet them for sure.

Every time I get an email notification for this topic I keep getting excited (thinking that it is the show up for download).
I should give hipbase (and my nerves) a break

All right, I've gotten software, I even have file place holders (0mb), but I can't seem to connect to peers, hence, no files downloading. What else do I need to do?

Do a search for Bit Torrent how-to. There are a few threads about it, and you should find your answers there.

"Wow, what a finish!"- Gord Downie, after Silver Jet, end of first encore, Rochester, 10-19-04
Holy crap. What a show. I was not there, but I've just finished listening to the recording. A huge, hearty thanks to Ron Kershaw and Chris for getting this show to us. In my past collecting experiences, I've been fortunate to listen to over 500 Hip shows from 1985 to present day, and I can honestly say that this is among the top three that I have ever heard!!! At the Hundredth Meridian was the absolute BEST version of this song that I've ever heard. The energy coming from the band, oozed out of my stereo speakers here at home. I listened to the whole show with my four-month-old daughter in my arms, dancing our butts off. She has certain reactions to certain Hip songs (no doubt from hearing them in the womb), and she absolutely loves Mean Streak. This night, Mean Streak was phenomenal.
I wish I could have been there, but thanks to Ron and Chris, all i need to do is close my eyes while listening to this recording, and I'm in the Auditorium Theatre.
Peace...

I was there and it was amazing.
I have not listened yet - I will when I get home.
But THANK GOD the emotion of the songs carried over to the recording

I agree with Rory, this recording rocks big time. I can't wait for the show tomorrow in Ottawa. Big thanks to Ron and Chirs on getting this one out.

Hey folks...
I'm about to burn the Rochester show. Should we come to a consensus on how many tracks go on each disc? For CD cover purposes (when one is made). I personally think the first disc should end with Meridian. Any thoughts??
