hahaha, that was hilarious! "Watch up here....don't watch over there!"

Yeah, that was a great show. I love Buffalo shows - the energy is always so high, both from the band and the crowd. I also felt like I was at home. The setting reminded me of Fort York, with the Gardiner Expwy right beside, and the lake nearby too.

Loved hearing Blow to open up. Loved the banter. Loved Rob singing "tired" on Little Bones.

Awesome show to end my 2011 Hip summer tour!

The Arkells were great. The comparison of Hamilton and Buffalo was spot on!

I know I say this after almost every Hip show but last night was one of the best concert experiences I have had. The venue was beautiful the band was on fire and the crowd was the best group of people I have ever seen for a show that big. The people of western New York/Southern Ontario are some of the nicest people in the entire world. Being with thousands fellow Hip fans singing and dancing filled my heart with joy. That show will hold me over for a good six months. Thank you Buffalo for an experience I will never forget.

Viva la Hip!

I couldn't hear a lot of what he was saying in between songs because I was a ways back from the stage and talking with my friends (yes, I'm a bad fan LOL)...towards the beer stands. I did catch the fireworks comments, hehe. Also, nice try Gord, but the fireworks were coming from the Outer Harbor Festival about a mile away on the US side...not Canada. :wink:

Nice! I drove Toronto to Maryland in 2009 for a Hip show. Not sure I'd jump at doing it again anytime soon!

Amazing picture! Thanks for sharing.

Drove from Pittsburgh for the show & even though it was a "greatest hits" show, it was still amazing! The venue was very cool, I'd definitely want to see them play here again. The fireworks over the harbor were just the "cherry on top" as you would say.

I can confirm, based on the taping, that the fourth song is Streets Ahead, not Stay.

GD called them breakaway fireworks. I would like to think they were UFO's dropping in to see the boys. Were they actually half a dozen Chinese lanterns or Leonid meteors?
