Is this just an old hockey saying - or is he kinda quoting Hip lyrics?

From the Buffalo news article about Max Afinogenov:

"He is unbelievable with the puck," said Tim Connolly, himself a terrific puckhandler. "Sometimes, he'll beat a guy two or three times before they even realize that they're beat. He'll turn them inside out, they'll turn around, he'll go the other way, they'll turn back around. It's like he can stickhandle around you in a phone booth."

First and foremost, i'm not sure if you guys are aware of it or not, but the Capital Commission is encouraging people to email them to tell them which bands they want to see play at the Festival of the Lights in Charlottetown this summer. I've already emailed them a few times over the winter lobbying for the Hip.

Anyways, i'm also a huge Bryan Adams fan (the concert Wednesday night was incredible btw), and i've been a member of his fanclub for as long as i can remember. Following the concert the other night i went to the members board on his site, and a member from Montague posted that her son who now lives in Halifax, his band was approached the other day about possibly being the first act on the second night of the FOTL, opening for "The Tragically Hip and another band". No idea if there is any truth behind this at all, but something definitely worth keeping an eye on & i've got my fingers crossed...maybe they've finally given in to my emails demanding the Hip Big Grin

In an effort to keep up with all of the Hip news, I'm looking for a few people who would like to be bloggers on hipfans.com

Whenever you come across some Hip news, post it to the blog.

If you're interested, reply here, or send me a PM.

Thanks!

The Black Crowes, Drive-By Truckers and Robert Randolph & the Family Band! This is gonna be one helluva rock show.

Hopefully we'll see BC for 2hrs, DBT 1.5 hrs and RR for 1hr.

at 90 min that is a very abbreviated set for DBT but well worth it to see them with the Crowes.

Last weekend Rock 101 here in Vancouver ran a TTH A-to-B Side weekend and featured a song or two each hour as well as a random live track every few hours.

I was able to capture three live cuts : ABAC from Woodstock (easy to pick-out), plus Locked & Cordelia. The problem is they didn't give any info as to where these two tracks were recorded. I'm hoping some folks here could shed some light so I've uploaded MP3's of each in hopes that some might recognize which shows they're from.

Cordelia is 3mb and has no rants from Gord to help narrow down a date.
(http://beta.yousendit.com/transfer.php?a...B418016E9E)

Locked is 5mb and might be a little easier as Gord starts off with the following:
"This is a song for Salmon Rushdie. He plays left wing for the Maple Leafs. It was a falsehood."
(http://beta.yousendit.com/transfer.php?a...9113C3671E)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Tony

The following is an excerpt from a University Micro-Economics Textbook (McConnell 10th Canadian Ed. McGraw-Hill pg. 136)
"The utility of a specific product may vary widely from person to person. A Celine Dion CD has tremendous utility for one of her fans, but no utility to someone who listens only to the Tragically Hip."
Let us attempt to complie a list of people, places or things that are completely unassociated with the Tragically Hip. The responses should make members of the Hipbase community cringe at the slightest thought of the noun being used. ex: Celine Dion :nooooo
