I guess I kind of understand Gord Downie and The Tragically Hip not being to well known in the U.S. After all, he was only 53. The band was not formed in the 60's or 70's so most of this generation in America wouldn't be exposed to it like we were in Canada. To put it in context, he is a Canadian legend. He was a down to earth, yet powerful performer. He really is what Canadians are about. R.I.P. Gord. I hope you are listening, you have been on Canadian radio all day long today. We'll miss you.

The Hip... one of the few bands where you can pick any album and listen to the whole thing and it kicks fuckin *** from start to finish

RIP Gord
