Looks really neat, defiantly a game changer from what I can tell. It's killing me not having access. Does anyone have an invite they can send my way?

but is anyone finding the hip boring right now
they continue to play the same set lists each night after night
same songs over and over again

I have seen over 25 hip shows starting at 95 in the gardens, and I am not sure how the band or fans could stay into the same thing everynight

Is anyone seeing more than one or two shows this tour?

I remember when they used to play 2 or 3 nights at mlg or acc and they would kill it

anyone agree or am i just expecting to much

For the past few sunmmers I have seen a ton of phish and pearl jam shows and each one of those are different
I know the hip are not a jamm your face of band but it would be nice to mix it up and bust out something every now and than

they did this with their tour a couple years ago when they did a different cover each night

How can the same thing each night be fun, and where is the magic and one time hits, like when they played fidlers or 38 years old

It just feels like its been a greatest hits tour for sometime now

The most amazing, mind blowing, outstanding show I have ever seen in my life. Completely blown away by this 3.5 hour performance, 3 encores, blistering cover of CSNY's Ohio, and a wicked 15 minute cover of Zep's No Quarter. Also included a fab cover of PJ's Jeremy squeezed in the middle of Glory & Consequence. If that wasnt enough homage to some of the best bands in the world they also covered Queen's Under Pressure. Despite all the covers he still managed to hit songs from his entire LP catalogue including 1994's stunning Welcome to the Cruel World.

Ben also sang acapella during Where I Could Go with the entire house in a dead silence, you could have heard a pin drop for those precious few minutes. Chills! He did this at Massey Hall a couple of years ago and it was equally outstanding.

Combo of Ground on Down, No Quarter and Ohio sets the bar for the best ~30 minutes of live music I've experienced.

WOW! Tongue

hey guys, there has been a couple reviews of the toronto shows that said gord wasn't really on time with the crowd and not in sync with band at times?? I was at the peterborough and toronto shows and would agree but he has been doing this for a while now going back to about 2004. Don't get me wrong, i do like some of his interpretations to old songs and i know at live shows you gotta change things up a bit, but gord must know that some of the songs he sings half his way and half the original way. Best examples I think would probably be Little Bones, Blow at High Dough, Ahead by a Century, Courage, Giftshop, 100th Meridian, Escape is at hand and New Orleans. I am just wondering if it bothers anyone else or that is what is fun for people when seeing live shows compared to albums. Until 2004, pretty much all songs were sung the same as on the album except for rants and extended jams. Maybe gord doesn't even know he is changin stuff around?

Just thought some of you may be interested that Dan Mangan announced a release date for his follow up to 'Nice, Nice, Very Nice' just the other day (September 27, 2011). Head over to <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.danmanganmusic.com/">http://www.danmanganmusic.com/</a><!-- m --> and you can get a free download of the title track "Oh Fortune". Haven't listened yet, but hoping he can deliver after the amazing Nice, Nice, Very Nice.
