    excellent choice D. Love it. would fit Ed's vocal delivery perfectly. the explosion on the downbeat of "....swings!" if they brought the house lights up at that moment would be awesome. 
    Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer

    agreed.....think Boom on organ would add an awesome element...envisioning a "badada" background vocal from this song replacing "ah, oh" from Sirens  :)

    "one of my bigger regrets is not being able to convince a buddy of mine to go check them out on the Fully Completely full album anniversary tour in Minneapolis. they were playing a 700 seat club. He wouldn't do it. man that would have been incredible. "

    I was at this show at First Avenue.  I swear it was all Canadians. It seemed like tickets were to be had right up to show time.
    I couldn't believe they were playing such a small venue. 
    HFD, you missed out on an outstanding Hip show

    So I told my coworker, who is a huge Hip fan that the lead singer for Men without Hats was replacing Gord and they were going out on tour. They were just trying to settle the name, Men without Hips or the Tragically Hats… he didn’t find it as funny as I did

    the Blow at High Dough cover is not that great
