watched the first two episodes of Tragically Hip`s Doc No Dress Rehearsal
They spoke about their first roadie into the USA and how they simply couldn`t gain even a quarter of support from the US markets and how they played to half empty venues
My buddies and I drove up from Ottawa to Burlington Vermont to watch one of the gigs in the early 90`s as they were getting big in Canada and was astounded at how empty it was, had the pleasure of sitting with the band post show as they came out of their dressing room to hang with the 60-70 ppl in attendance for a quick drink before they hit the road, all super gracious and down to earth and they performed like they would have in front of 20,000
Such a great band
