I haven't had a chance to hear this show yet. I don't even know if there is a source out there. I do know this... A good friend of mine went to this show and I am very jealous of that. This is easily the setlist of the tour so far. We didn't know it at the time because it was only the 3rd show in. Patterns had not yet developed. At this point it looked like we were going to be treated to eclectic setlist after eclectic setlist. To some extent we were, but the deep cuts never got any deeper than on this night. At least not in the quantities we saw here...


This is a show sans Grace Too, Bobcaygeon, Blow At High Dough, Poets, Gift Shop, Little Bones, New Orleans Is Sinking and My Music At Work. None of those crutches were leaned on here. But this is a powerful collection of songs to be sure. It shows the incredible depth that The Hip catalog has. It shows what is possible. It is not a lazy setlist.


Here's something pretty cool... 5 songs have been played only ONCE on this tour so far. 4 of those 5 were played at this specific show in Rochester, NY. If you attended this show you saw the only versions of Done And Done, Locked In The Trunk Of A Car, Yawning Or Snarling and Three Pistols played this tour.


It doesn't end there. Attendees of this show also saw Daredevil, Don't Wake Daddy and On The Verge. These songs were only played twice each in the 22 show tour.


Is there more? You bet. Morning Moon was only played 3 times all tour and yes, one of the performances was at this show. Long Time Running and So Hard Done By were played 4 times each and yet they both appeared in the Rochester setlist. Family Band was played 5 times in total. Yep. Rochester too.


The Modern Spirit would have made this list too if not for a late tour rally. It was played in 3 of the last four shows.


So what happened then? Why Rochester? It was the closest show to their home on this tour so it stands to reason that the band may have had some good friends there that maybe had some favorites that they wanted to hear. Daredevil makes sense just based on geography. Maybe someone doesn't like the way a song is sounding and they just decide to drop it?


When a song like Ahead By A Century or New Orleans or Courage gets played it's immediately recognizable and the casual fans who yes, do make up the majority of the audience cheer noticeably louder. Three Pistols or On The Verge can close a set just as good, if not better than a song like My Music At Work, but the fact is the casual fan is not that familiar with the in-your-face power of a dynamic On The Verge. The Man, The Legend, The Goat, The Satyr if you will... Maybe the band likes to hear the crowd recognition from the stage? Or maybe they feel like the songs that generate the most cheers are the ones that will leave the audience feeling like they got the most value for their cost.


The Canadian leg of the tour starts in mid January and goes for about a month. It will be interesting to see how the setlists continue to develop. IF they continue to develop. Will new songs be added? Will they stop playing Grace Too, ABAC & Bobcaygeon every single show? Will they jam more? Will the back end of the new album get more play? Is The Depression Suite dead? Or just hibernating?

Has anyone heard this show or does anyone have a copy? Based on what they played, this show really sticks out to me on this tour and I would love to hear it...

Happy Holidays!

Looks like airmiles is offering packages for dates in Ontario:

Looking for a pair of decent tickets to either Calgary show in January to make a great girls Xmas.
Thanks in advance

Please don't take this the wrong way. It isn't spam. Click or don't I just think many of you would like to hear this.

I have a sports podcast called The Sports-Casters and interviewed Roy MacGregor from the Globe and Mail and now in the Hockey Hall of Fame.

We talked 5 minutes of hockey, got into the Hall of Fame and Pavel Bure and the 98 Olympics.

Now the Hip part- Roy is considered the worlds expert on Tom Thompson.

The last 5-7 minutes of the interview is him analyzing the lyrics to Three Pistols and explaining what some of the lyrics mean. He also talks about some other Hip related issues.

Here is the link:http://www.garbageradio.com/podcasts/spo...s03e06.mp3

Roy starts at about the 59 minute mark. I am excited to be able to share this with other Hip fans. I hope you check it out and enjoy.

Hockey fans: What he says about Pavel Bure will blow you away.

been waiting on this one for a long time, im 20 minutes and totally feel like im 17 again



We all get older and a lot of us still play music. We are not the same as we were when we were twenty, its hard to relate to the mind you once had even if you can maybe analyze it better now when looking back. Things seemed simpler, more dramatic, energetic and vital at that age. The music had a sheer power and emotional overload that can only really come from the late teens/early 20's. We were fresh out of highschool, skateboarding, hardcore bands, still living at home, no real incentive to have a band for any real reason than to make a racket with and for our best friends. I still love listening to old records and watching old footage of bands in their youthful prime. The who we once were is captured on there, immortal. It’s quite a thing. One problem i always have with the usual band documentarys, is that they are always filled up with new interviews of people reminiscing on old times with decades of hindsight, and the fact that they give you just short glimpses of classic footage that you'd love to see a lot more of. We could have done easily done that too but i believe that the truest form of the story is in the original music, photo, film and video footage itself.

I've collected a lot of stuff from friends over the years and luckily, i personally bothered to lug 4 tracks machines, mics and old video cameras to the shows at the time. Talking friends into holding the camera or keeping an eye on the input levels. I'm really glad i kept all those VHS tapes and reels of super8 films safe. The boxes of cassettes stored at my folks house still play great after 20 years. In 2007 i started transferring all these tapes into digital form to put this movie together, dubbing old VHS tapes was the scariest thing as some of them would barely play but i eventually got them all. I was excited that with use of modern editing stuff, i could finally sync up old video with better sounding tapes recorded at the same show, or editing together footage i had with someone else’s camera angle of the same show that i got from them years later. I worked on this movie for four years with much love until i finally had what i thought was a good document of what Eric's Trip really was.

The footage and the music is all in chronological order but also layed out in an intentional storyline. Some of these live concerts i have in their entirety, some just a rough piece. Though all the clips used, the song lyrics, the photos, everything together was chosen to tell the true story better than we ever could with modern reminiscing. There is no voice over, no type on screen, just the footage. I've edited it all together as clean as i could manage and really fussed over it. This is a much loved part of my history and i really wanted it to be meaningful and true. I listed out any facts and details about the footage in a timeline below, if you're curious of such things.

Most all the footage was collected from VHS tapes which aren't very HD compared to modern video of course. I don't recommend blowing it up to full screen. The original footage is in 4:3 aspect at 640x480 pixels, and it varies in quality quite a bit. The photos are cleaned up, the music is all remastered and full stereo, and this final edit is just under two hours long. No permissions were gotten for any of the footage i've used that wasn't originally my own, and i really hope all will understand that this movie was made with no intention of profit to be made, and that the footage is very important to this documentative project. I'm really happy with how it all turned out and am glad i can finally share it with all of you that may care.

Hope you dig the Eric's Trip show, thanks friends.

Rick

First off is this one:





I was at the first Vancouver show. A guy randomly asked my buddies and I if we wanted some fungii right before entering the show, and we said "yuuuup". They opened with Something On and the whole stage was yellow. Great times were had. I have not seen Vapour Trails live since this show! One of my favs too. I only have one other poster from the 90's shows I was at but this is the first Hip one. Can't wait to get it on the wall and framed.

My wife can't make it to the San Francisco Fillmore show, so I have an extra ticket. $25 takes it if you can meet me outside the doors before they open. Email me nohochin at hotmail.com

Thanks!

Hello everyone,

I am new here and am looking to find some live hip dvd's if possible. I would be happy with torrents or would pay someone to do a B and P even if anyone is willing. I could pay someone for a spindle of blanks and the shipping ahead of time of course. Please let me know if anyone is willing to help. Thank you all for your time.
