Last Friday was my first Tragically Hip show! It was in Brussels, Begium. I was there for my work for just one day so i guess i can say I am a lucky guy! i mean to have the hip playing there the same day. I also met Paul Kramer, a dutchie blind melon fan who sometimes post on hoonstruck, i'm not sure he has an account on this forum. Anyway, he came to the 2004 vigil from Amsterdam and is a big hip fan The show was awesome, Paul was there with a Blind Melon t-shirt (the one with the bee girl) so i could recognize him! I had a few beers with Paul and some cool canadian fans and we even talked about Barbara's project which is to come to the States in november/december to see Blind Melon live

That's awesome Vince! You're really lucky there! And yes, Paul does have an account on here, but I can't remember his username. I'm happy you had a good time

I'm glad you seen them Charles, and that you dug 'em! I've seen them 4 times now, i think it is. Last time was w/ the Stones, Maroon 5 and Our Lady Peace. Gordie is a chatter box live, isn't he? I mean the band is Jamm'n away, and he's up there just spewing shit around!!! it's hilarious #rock# HIP #rock#

You really are a damn lucky guy Vince! Paul told me you'll be at the show but I didn't know you were in Brussles for work anyway! I regret I couldn't come to see Racoon who were opening although it was only a few songs so I guess it wasn't really worth it... Did you like Racoon? Paul's username on the forum is "amsterdam": blindmelons.proboards19.com/index.cgi?action=viewprofile&user=amsterdam

That's great Vince! I'm so glad you got to see them. I've seen them a few times and they never disappoint, last time I saw them was last February I think.
