The wife and I went to see Gord Downie and Josh Finlayson at the Newfoundland and Labrador Folk Festival in Bowring Park on August 9th. After a couple of sub par Hip shows, this solo show proved to be a fantastic breath of fresh air. This was his first solo show in our province. Gord was singing every song so spot on, so much better than the screaming. It was a 12 song set featuring 3 Hip tunes, Bobcaygeon with Josh on keyboards was a very nice rendition, Family Band which was great, and Thompson Girl which I hear for the first time after a couple dozen hip shows over the years. We were right up in the front and our friend said he has some great pics and video. I'll post when I receive. Here is the setlist, songs 5-8 might be in wrong order:

1. SF Song
2. Dance and its Disappearance
3. The Drowning Machine
4. Bobcaygeon
5. Vancouver Divorce
6. Family Band
7. Thompson Girl
8. Yellow Days
9. Chancellor
10. Figment
11. 11th Fret
12. Canada Geese

Once again, Fantastic Show

My friend sent me 3 videos, Chancellor, Bobcaygeon, and Thompson Girl. How do I post them on this sight for everyone to see?

I think you would need to upload them to Youtube first and then link the video here to the forum. Alternatively, you could put them up on dropbox or something like that and people could download the videos themselves.
