Canada's Band: The Tragically Hip
No band is more intertwined with Canadian identity than The Tragically Hip. For over 30 years, Gord Downie's lyrics served as a national poetry, referencing everything from hockey history ('Fifty Mission Cap') to small-town Ontario ('Bobcaygeon'). With 17 Juno Awards, their music is a permanent fixture on the Canadian cultural landscape. #Canada #TheHip #TragicallyHip #GordDownie 🇨🇦

The day after this event I was at a #TragicallyHip concert in Seattle. The display of Canadian patriotism from he mostly Canadian crowd in the small Seattle theatre was over the top and drowned out the band! Understandable but a bit embarrassing.

It was Canada’s first sprint gold since 1928, helping restore pride in Canadian #TrackAndField after the Ben Johnson scandal. 🇨🇦 #Olympics #Canada #1996 #Running https://olympic.ca/team-canada/donovan-bailey/
I miss going to the Hip concerts. They were some of the best.

Heard on the news Gord Downey died eight years ago today. Can't believe it was that long ago already.
