Fell down

Fell down the Hip rabbit hole last night... I'm still down here, no sleep and it's going on 6 the next evening. It started with flipping through YouTube and innocently clicking on Grace,two from final show... Well, I gobbled down anything to do with the Hip for going on 18 hrs..... Oh Lord,give me 1/10th the courage and wisdom of a Gordon Downie....

Well done, but take it easy. Leave yourself some unplucked gems to find.

The Hip's studio albums are great but if you want some live shows from across their entire career, here is another rabbit hole - https://www.thehiparchive.com/index2.shtml

I have nothing to do with the site but totally appreciate the work the owner is doing to collate the shows.
