The Hip!

As many of you know, we lived in Canada for 6 years and any good Canadian knows that the Tragically Hip is one of the greatest rock bands around! However, they are not so well-known down in the southern United States. Well, imagine our surprise when we heard they were coming to Dallas! Marty got tickets the day they went on sale. The concert is Friday night. And now for the coolest part ... through DigitalArtQuirks.com, I met a fellow quirker who knows the band!!!! I don't know if she wants to be named (Krista) but she was kind enough to get us passes to meet the band after the show. I am so excited. She just emailed me! I haven't even told Marty yet. Like I told her ... he is going to pee his pants! So I just wanted to shout out a big, HUGE thank you to my friend (Krista). I can't tell you how much this means to me. And now for some cool Tragically Hip music:
