Description
Gord Downie of the Tragically Hip plays live during the first of two nights in Vancouver on their tour promoting their new album "We Are The Same" June 22nd, 2009. (Scott Alexander/pressphotointl.com)Tragically Hip are an interesting band to see live.. I never used to care much for their music, but after seeing them last summer at Pmeberton Festival, That changed..
Im not as big a fan as say.. *T-Hip , but I appreciate a few of their songs
We were only allowed to shoot from the (facing) left side of the stage, as there was no accessible pit, but I got several shots I really liked, despite him holding the mic with his right hand..

I cannot tell you how much my wife and I love the Tragically Hip. They make incredible music and he writes incredible lyrics. We live in Washington State and have been fans for 15 years.
Your picture really captures everything that is wonderfully odd about him. He is a real artist and poet. Keep up the great work.

Ahahaa.. yeah, Gord is an AMAZING showman.. I always thought their music was over-played, which is probably the only qualm i really had about them.
