After seeing these guys perform twice in the past 15 years, my wife l and Iooked forward to another great show from The Tragically Hip. Unfortunately, Gordon Downie's antics clashed with the overall sound. The lyrical delivery was so persistently disjointed, the smooth Canadian feel of many songs was lost. Gord's vocal-liberties were too out-of-place with the rest of the music. I know Gord likes to act silly while performing, but we weren't sure what he was trying to do on stage, although it seemed as if he set out to make singing along nearly impossible. There was nothing redeeming about his singing until about three quarters into the show when they performed Bobcaygeon - the crowd erupted at the mention of Toronto, and The Hip played and finally sang respectably while the cheering continued right into the encore, but overall this show was a letdown.
