Last night after I found the lyrics to The Tragically Hip’s “Pigeon Camera” tune, I came across an excellent article at Tiny Mix Tapes about the Hip. It’s always been a mystery to me why a band that has achieved cult-like status in their homeland of Canada has never really caught on more in the United States. Though I have appreciated being able to see them in small clubs. The best show was probably The Ranch Bowl in Omaha, Nebraska back in ‘92 or ‘93. The Ranch Bowl has three rooms: a bowling alley, bar and night club. The club probably fits a couple hundred people. The Hip put on one of the best live shows. Seeing them in such a small place was spectacular.

About Sooz
This is the website where I've documented life and work adventures since 2001. I've been working on the web pretty much since there was one: online community, web marketing, social media. Current projects of my own include Exploit Boston! and Free Agent Boston. As of January 2008 I'm back to the freelance world doing web marketing, social media and event planning consulting. In March 2008 I was the event planner for Drupalcon Boston, attended by 864 Drupal open source content management geeks from around the world. I'm currently working as a web marketing consultant at SolidWorks. The rest of the time I'm out shooting photos at Boston concerts.
