Minnesota fan of The Hip since 86', they blew my mind then and have continued my whole life. Several concerts and more music than any other band I own. Miss them all dearly. I'll see ya somewheres down the road Gord.
I'm from the UK and love the mighty 'Hip Over to watch hockey next year in my beloved Canada destination and bringing a suitcase for every damn Hip album/vinyl/book/item I can find Awesome band
Dec 30/22, cranking this one!! It’s killer you found the Mighty Hip in the UK! A much loved band I grew up with!! They got a lot of love in the States also, so amazing live!
Fucking Gordie was the fucking man. No other front man like this lad. Was so lucky and fortunate enough to see them in Syracuse, NY in front of about 2,000 fans. Was unreal.
south of the border hip fan here. its hard to imagine a canada without gord. i always felt better knowing our neighbors to the north revered such a true artist and poet. who will help us americans decipher candadianess now?
Wow. I found an American with an interest. Last one I met was a Navy SEAL and before that, a machinist in Texas who talked with me about the Quebec issue. That was 25 years ago. So, thank you for complimenting OUR band and keep listening.
Hip fan from the UK Lets bring the US/Canada/UK together musically - from our love of the mighty Hip Sad news indeed about Gord and watched their last concert online Awesome legacy of music
his self imposed mandate was to deciefer canada for the world through poetry. he did just that. greatest canadian ever. we love and miss him so much...its like losing a family member for us. we are crushed. thanx for admiration south of that imaginary line called a border. it means alot to us. believe it. thank you
one of the most unique voices out there, I was so sad when I moved to Texas because The Hip and Sloan don't come down here! Come to Dallas!! you can stay at my house.
Three non Canadians dislikes. If they claim they are Canadian a dislike for the Hip can get your citizenship revoked and you could end up somewhere you won't like even more.
Rock In Peace Gord. A true Canadian Icon. I’ll always remember the first Hip song I ever heard. Blow At High Dough, it was on an HMV promo tape. My brother met you guys in Eugene Oregon the morning after a concert at your bus a long time ago. You all signed a shirt for him and Gord wrote Evil with an arrow pointing up. Lol. He was at the front of the stage. He and his friends were the only ones that new all the words. Miss ya bro, RIP.
Perfection, I still watch the movie of the last tour and dance and can’t help but cry, it’s like a soul cleansing, you just want to soak their music and energy into every cell of your being, what a band like no other. So much love and heart, they were such a national treasure, I’m so envious of Canada! You had Trudeau and the Hip, while we had Kanye and Trump, LOL! Bless Gord, but he sure left this Earth showered with so much love. His legacy lives on, he made the world a better place.
Kathy Becker nice reference! saw 13 of their concerts. always a showman. pure canadian genius we always wanted the world to hear and enjoy too. a hard canadian.
I Am Their Biggest American Fan! The Hip are brilliant and criminally underrated. Saw them twice in DC! Gordon Downie is amazing and Grace Too my favorite Hip tune. Brilliant Canucks!
Can a HIP fan please explain to me what the lyrics mean in this song? I don’t care if it’s your interpretation or Gord’s himself Always curious about this song’s meaning
i hope we get a twenty dvd box set offered for Christmas . . .after the summer leg of the MMP tour wraps, re-charge by the lake for a few weeks, enjoy the Labour Day long weekend , get the kids back into school and settled...then the Fall Maritimes tour in October...5 towns, 9 or 10 shows with a grand finale hallowe'en in St John's!!...let's do it, boys !!
"Armed with will and determination ... and grace, too." You'll be missed, Gord.
Buffalo NY loves the Hip! Thank God we live so close to Canada!

I will never grow tired of that song, I swear.
Me either
one of the most unique voices out there, I was so sad when I moved to Texas because The Hip and Sloan don't come down here! Come to Dallas!! you can stay at my house.
Sloan is such an underrated band! I saw them live at a club in Victoria, BC in the mid '90's....? They kicked ass!
This song has one of the most epic chorus guitar segments in the world!
Literally entranced by The hip. The last thing i wanna hear before i die is "The hundredth meridian."
They have blessed me with their talents and story telling now and will in the future and for that I Salute You!Thanks Guys your simply the Best.
They opened their concerts with this song many a time!!! One of my favorites...I think I like it better at the end! :)
Gord was on point here. Magic.
That energy! That nerve!
They saved the best for last. My all-time favorite song and my all-time favorite band. I was there ROW 4! AWESOME!
Watched the concert in it's entirty!!! Awesome as usual!! Luv you guys....reschedule a date in Halifax...we are patiently waiting for you!! xox
summer on Gord.. Summer on..
The Hip never gets old for me.

Siberian gulag with a low budget.
(Winnipeg).
Or Detroit ...
Good.
For the violent ones.
I work with one who was glad the Kingston show was over.
I would put him on the bus tomorrow.
Les Brown Perfect.
Ain’t no band like The Hip. Ain’t no front man like Gord.
You know it. Greatest rock n roll band of all time. Good Canadian boys.

Man I miss hearing the HIP daily in WNY on local radio stations, and free hockey night in Canada on local tv analog.
Me to I'm in my mid 50s Buffalo state

These guys are so fricken cool.
Was at this show with my wife a gift to each other. And her name was Hrace❤️😎🙏🙏✌️
Love this song, love the Hip.
Did anyone see ,the hip at the aspen harmony festival, in 99, they blew the black crowes, off the stage. !!! Rip gorden!!
Roger Waters would be proud of Gord’s scream.
Take care of each other. Drive the speed limit. ♥
Kathy Becker nice reference! saw 13 of their concerts. always a showman. pure canadian genius we always wanted the world to hear and enjoy too. a hard canadian.
