Thanks so much for posting these!!! Because I wasn't terribly familiar with the band at the time, I have very few specific recollections from the show. It's filed in my memory more as a "really fun experience" than anything specific! I do remember Alan's horrible pants now that I see the pictures though!!! 

But you're right! This show happened in 2000, not 1999. (So it's only my 9-year anniversary.) It's weird, because there are a lot of very specific things -- where I was living, my roommate at the time -- that made me think this show occurred in 1999, but I just checked my CD collection, and Music@Work (which The Hip were supporting at the time) was released in 2000. How odd!!! I'm going to have to do some thinking on where those memories came from!

Anyhow, happy 9-year anniversary to me, I guess!
