Gord seemed aggravated for most of the show, especially on the older material. The crowd seemed disinterested. It's hard to determine which started it, but both made for a weak outing. Thankfully, Portland brought us the Hip we know and love.

There's no way I'd believe he just forgot the words to Blow At High Dough in the second verse...
I wonder what that was about.
He usually has the teleprompter anyways. It almost looks like he's giving condolences to the crowd right at the end.

The was a very strange finish. I would have to say he looked exhausted or ill - notice how Billy Ray
seems to ask "are you ok" when Gord exits.

I think his stand wouldnt tighten and he got lost with the words while fucking around with that.

wow, hey. what a weird finish, honestly i didnt notice the finish that much as I was at the back by this time, hanging with friends I hadnt seen in ages....


chalk it up to an off day, I guess. Shit venue, the segregation of the drinkers and non drinkers, who knows. weird vibe, poor Gord, he wasnt in a good place.
