The Hip to Play Canadian Night in L.A.

Pin It Now!

The Tragically Hip are teaming up with the LA Kings to help promote their Canadian Night on Oct 29, 2009. Fans can purchase a combo ticket that includes both the game (vs Vancouver Canucks) and the show afterward starting from $39 USD. That's a pretty good deal and is usually the average price for attending just one of these events. This is a pretty cool opportunity for any west coast fans.

LA Kings To Host First-Ever Canadian Night

The Los Angeles Kings, in conjunction with AEG Live, will host their first-ever Canadian Night that includes a post-game concert from Canada's premier band, The Tragically Hip, when the team welcomes the Vancouver Canucks to STAPLES Center on Thursday, October 29 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets start at just $39 and include a ticket to the game and a ticket to the post-game concert starting at 10:00 pm at Club Nokia at LA LIVE. Discounts are also available for groups of 15 or more. Tickets go on sale to the general public on August 28 with tickets available in all areas of the arena. To purchase tickets, visit LAKings.com/canadiannight, ">Ticketmaster.com or call 1-888-KINGS-LA.

The Tragically Hip is a Canadian rock band that first formed in Kingston, Ontario in 1983. Band members include Gordon Downie (lead vocals and guitar), Paul Langlois (guitar), Rob Baker (guitar), Gord Sinclair (bass) and Johnny Fay (drums).

I was just perusing the archives on www.thehip.com and it surprised me the the boys only seem to have played up there once before.

The concert took place Feb 11, 1995, a few ambitious time of the year to hit the Bay. The concert took place at Memorial Gardens and this is what they played:


Memorial Gardens: North Bay, ON: Canada: 02/11/1995

Locked In The Trunk Of A Car
Greasy Jungle
So Hard Done By
Fifty-Mission Cap
The Last Of The Unplucked Gems

Yawning Or Snarling

Pigeon Camera
Nautical Disaster
Courage
Eldorado
Inevitability Of Death
New Orleans Is Sinking
Fire In The Hole
Daredevil

All but So Hard Done By, Last of the Unplucked Gems and Fire in the Hole have been played so far this tour, so there's a chance anything could be played. They have reined in the sprawling setlist that we saw early in the tour and since this is a festival format I would expect a greatest hits type of setlist.

Saturday is calling for a high of 25C, sunny and only a 20% chance of rain. Sounds perfect.

If you attend North Rocks the Bay, we'd love to hear from you.

Notes: Beautiful outdoor venue just south of Burlington, VT. I used to have friends that lived in Burlington and we would gather pre and post Phish festivals there. Beautiful city with the mountains and lake. A university town with a liberal attitude and Montreal just a little ways north. The boys seem to be on a "Greatest Hits Tour" since returning to the road. I guess if you're not going to hear Country Day at this venue, it's probably packed away pretty deep by now. C'est la vie.
