I asked Gord D. after the show if we'd be seeing them on a Canadian
tour
in February, and he said, "Yeah". So there ya go. Boy, did he look
tired
after the show, outside. He's taller than I thought he'd be, and Gord
S.
was certainly shorter. The only guy I didn't meet was Johnny. I think
he
was at the bar next door having a couple beer. I got them all to sign
my
LBU poster. Gord asked my name, and I told him, and he wrote "The Rory
Factor" above his signature. Very cool!
Anyhow, there's my short review. I did get the show taped, but I have
to
make some level adjustments to it before I trade it out, so stay tuned!
Later all!
Rory
From the time the lights went down 'til the end of the second encore
WOW.
The music, the magic all blend into one... as with their albums...
except I have several thousand people surrounding me signing with every
word, reaffirming my faith that I'm not the only one in the upper
midwest to have this giddy attraction to a music group.
Next mission - See the Hip live in Winnipeg.
Attached is the set list which I was gracious enough to collect.
Biggest moment for me... hearing the opening notes of Gift Shop and
welling over with tears of joy... being it was the third song into
the
night, you may be able to imagine the rapture I felt the through the
remaindr of the show...
not listed on the set list is the second encore (was it not planned?)
Thompson Girl and Little Bones.
Membership was termed "Down By The River" by Gord... ???
Rory in Winnipeg - I tried looking up to see you in the front row of
the
balcony... *shrug*... no idea if I saw you, but, hey, I tried... ;)
Gord had some great rants during the show... and NOIS - What a groove..
*SWWOON*
After Poets Gord quipped... "I feel tittilated and sexy..."
That's all for now... I'm still running mental pictures from the show.
Won over by albums,
now throughly confirmed in my faith
after seeing the show.
