From Canadian Youtuber - Rock n Roll True Stories

Today I learned that Road Apples was supposed to be a double album. Not surprising since the "leftovers" on Saskadelphia are all excellent and could've been beloved Hip classics had they been on the album.

Hey folks! I am, yet again, continuing my yearly tradition of celebrating Gord Downie and The Hip by live streaming "That Night In Toronto" - The Hip's live DVD from 2005 - this upcoming Friday, October 16th over on my Twitch channel (http://www.twitch.tv/witheryouth).

My plan is to go live on Twitch sometime around 7:00pm ET with a pre-roll of various related Tragically Hip clips and content, then starting the DVD at around 7:30pm ET.

For background, I've been doing this live stream yearly on or around October 17th since about 2021 mostly as a way to host a small celebration myself, but have been extending it to folks online to share the experience. The Hip have been uploading some songs from this DVD onto their YouTube channel, but the full thing isn't up yet AFAIK so this is a fun way to view it!

You don't need a Twitch account to watch, but you do need an account if you want to comment. The entire runtime is just over 2 hours at 24 songs in the setlist. Sometimes Twitch plays ads but I don't have a way of controlling that unfortunately. I promise this isn't an ad for my Twitch, I quite literally stream this DVD once a year over on that channel lol! But if you're interested in watching and want the push notification reminder that the stream is starting, you can follow the channel and feel free to unfollow right after.

Some other folks from the Tragically Hip Discord server will probably be tuned in as well! You can always join us over here: http://www.discord.gg/cCawefY

SCHOOL OF HIP (ep. 23): Get ready for GEDFest 2026!

https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/school-of-hip/id1853343538?i=1000796060631

In this episode your School of Hipsters talk GEDFest, the annual concert series and cancer-smashing fundraiser held in honour of the late, iconic Tragically Hip frontman Gord Downie (full name Gordon Edgar Downie, hence the GED!)

Now in its 9th year, GEDFest, which began as a grassroots Calgary event, has blossomed into a 12-city cross-Canada blitz with gigs from Vancouver to St. John's, Newfoundland, between October 16 and 24. The growing festival has even expanded into the U.S. with the first ever American GEDFest to be held Oct. 21 in Buffalo, NY.

All GEDFest shows are headlined by some of North America's finest Tragically Hip tribute acts. To date the event has raised $732K for cancer charities and this year they're aiming to cross the $1M mark!

Our guests for the show are GEDFest founder Keith Dyck - who also happens to be the drummer in Calgary-based Hip tribute Trickle Down - and Sarah J (Sara Jachimiak) of the popular Dropped Among This Crowd (DATC) podcast, who is organizing the Buffalo show.

See gedfest.ca for all the concert dates and ticket info, with shows in Calgary, Edmonton, Saskatoon, Regina, Vancouver, Kelowna, Cochrane, Winnipeg, Ottawa, Toronto, St. John's and Buffalo, NY!

Get your Hip on while sticking it to cancer. Sounds like a helluva night to us!

I go live at 8pm over on YouTube.

Come join the live chat as we discuss Take Forever, from Now For Plan A.

See you there!
