Now For Plan A - An Oklahoma View

Pin It Now!

Kinda random that the first complete review to come my way is from a music writer in Oklahoma. Maybe the boys need to add a Cowboy Leg to their US Tour, eh? After all Texas has always been very good to them and OKC is right there.

Anyway, here it is...

“At Transformation” is the opening shot that sets things spinning winningly on The Tragically Hip's 13^th long-player “Now For Plan A,” with fuzzed-out, twanging and stinging guitars swirling around Gordon Downie's distinctively dramatic warble as he sings of his resolve to be a positive force in a negative world and “not a bullet in the right place.”

Good plan, Gord. But then on the dreamier mid-tempo rocker “About This Map,” he concedes quite emotionally that life doesn't always go according to plan, so tear up that map and let the winds of fortune blow you where they may.

Pin It Now!

The Tragically Hip have received the honour of closing down (concert-wise anyway) Hamilton's famed and ugly Ivor Wynne Stadium where the Tiger-Cats have prowled the sidelines no getting much done for years. At least with a concert one can guarantee that the fans will leave happy.

From the band....

Hi Folks,

We have a new concert announcement for you!

We are excited to announce that we will be playing the final concert ever to be held at Hamilton's Ivor Wynne Stadium.

Pamela Anderson & Football Kennedey Style

Pin It Now!

Pamela Anderson was discovered while attending a BC Lions football game (that's CFL) by reps from Labatt. They found out who she was, hired her and the rest as they say is history...

Uncorrupted Pam...

This is the original music video for 'Little Bones'....

How are they related? I will be getting to that soon. I think you're really gonna dig it. In the meantime, play the video if you haven't seen it in awhile... It's really something.
