He doesn't sing in a range he's capable of. That's why he screams and growls and what-not. That's the point.

After watcing the whole set, I thought it was great, Gord sounded great as always and LEOTR rightfully was on the set because it was a goalie-hockey song which fit well with the theme of the evening... Now if they could do a free concert on Parliament Hill, that'd be nice.

I heard the first few songs in person. To me sounded similar to 2009 or so. At least in Grace, although screaming in parts, he kept in time to the music. On the last tour, I remember him screaming and being behind the band during that song. It was at least better than that.

You can always use a Clip Downloader for Youtube videos. Here is a link with a couple of options.

The only thing worse than the shouting is the ticket prices for this tour....when did the Hip become AC/DC or The Stones?
$374. incl taxes for 2 seats halfway from stage (not on floor), row G, fuck that.
Are they going broke?

Maybe someone at the Hip's management group bought a new cottage in Muskoka or something along those lines. The prices are insane. But, maybe they'll sell out, or wait, maybe they already have. I guess music isn't for those that want it, but, for those who can justify or afford the prices. However, they are not the only band robbing their fans at the box office. It will be interesting to see if they sell out the ACC. I pulled up a single ticket in the far corner for 103 plus the ticketmaster charges. Tom Petty had 10,000 for his show there in the summer, which is likely one of his last tours. I have to think price had something to do with it. I really like the idea of album tours at this point, but, a night out to see the Hip is now $500 bucks once you throw in gas, dinner, etc. For that cost, I want to see Jimmy Page come out with them for an encore.
