The Hip

I live very close to canada being in upstate new york. There is a canadian band the tragically hip, who is very popular in canada and up by where i live. Most people that i talk to down here have never heard of them before. My mom called me a few weeks ago and told me that in my little town that has never had anything exciting happen in it before, the hip were playing there. I was pretty pissed about this because i would not be able to go home for the concert and i just couldnt believe they were actually playing in massena. she also mentioned they were playing in syracuse too...

One of my best friends that goes to school in pittsburg was coming up to go to their concert in syracuse. I figured i would get two tickets and find someone to go with me. It was on thursday night, the day after halloween. I found a girl to go with me and drive me because i dont have a car and it was all good. I was very excited because i know that they put on a good show. I saw them two years ago just north of montreal and it was one of the best concerts ive ever been to.

On halloween night this girl that i was suppose to go with got mad at me for no reason and decided that she did not want to go anymore. The whole next day during class i was trying to find someone to go with me because i was basically screwed. 2 hours before the concert i finally found someone who knew who they were and that wanted to go. It was time to get going.

The concert was awesome, besides the opening band. they were probably the worst music ever made. I knew alot of friends that were there from my home town and they were all 21 so i was able to drink all night long which was a bonus. after the concert my friend chelsey came back to cortland for the weekend to visit with the rest of us.
