Unforgettable first concert of the last Hip tour
by moosepeg on 2017-09-24Save On Foods Memorial Centre - VictoriaThis first concert of The Tragically Hip Man Machine Poem tour was absolutely amazing. Everything from the atmosphere outside the arena, the feel inside the arena, the actual concert put on by the band, the emotions after the concert was over, all made for an amazing night. People at the concert acted like they were all best friends for years. Everyone was there to have a great time and to watch their favourite band for possible the last time live in concert. A special night, which was highlighted by a great show by The Tragically Hip with an amazing performance, which included hits from almost all of the albums spanning their music career. Gord did a spectacular job as always as front man for the band, and the crowd cheered him on like never before to help encourage him in his fight with brain cancer. I travelled from Winnipeg to Victoria and I am extremely grateful that I was able to experience this concert. I will never forget it, and I will always be a fan of The Tragically Hip, which I consider to be one of Canada's greatest rock and roll bands.
