This is great news for fans of The Tragically Hip and the dozens of Canadian rock fans across the globe! Find out more information on this incredibly significant release below!
The Tragically Hip Share 'The Holy Grail Of Unreleased Tracks'
The Tragically Hip's debut album Up To Here was the band's introduction to the world and provided them will immediate breakthrough success. The popular album featured favorites like "Blow at High Dough" and "New Orleans is Sinking" which helped them earn the JUNO Award for "most promising artist" in 1990. Now, the album is being given new life.
Not only is The Tragically Hip coming out with a commemorative boxset of Up To Here, they're also finally releasing "Get Back Again" which has fans itching in excitement. The track was recorded before signing their first major record deal with MCA (which is now Universal Music Canada) in November of 1988! That was even before their Up To Here sessions!
The band performed the song "Get Back Again" during the Live At Misty Moon set and up until now that was the only recorded version of the song! However, that's all changing tonight! The song will also be getting a brand new music video directed by Cleveland Henderson, the son of Pete Henderson, who directed many of the band's videos including "Locked In The Truck Of A Car" and "Courage (For Hugh MacLennan)". That video will officially premiere on The Tragically Hip's YouTube tonight at 7pm!
The Tragically Hip Releasing New Music Video Tonight
If you're a fan of the band then this commemorative boxset of Up To Here is going to be a must-add for your collection. It's a four-LP set on 180g vinyl and comes with a book documenting the history of the debut album era. It will feature a remastering of the original album and four previously unreleased songs that didn't make it onto the original LP. Those songs are: "She's Got What It Takes," "Rain, Hearts And Fire," "Wait So Long," and the previously discussed and highly-anticipated "Get Back Again."
Also included in the expanded package is a recording of Live At Misty Moon with an accompanying 1-hour concert film on Blu-Ray. There are also demos from 1988 in the package, as well. The package will be available in a 3-disc CD format.
I've had the chance to see The Tragically Hip live a couple of times and have been a fan since I was in middle school. I played a lot of hockey with my friends and we always appreciated "that song about Bobby Orr" which we now call by its real title, "Fireworks."
You can pre-order the boxset here. Don't miss the premiere of the music video for "Get Back Again" on The Tragically Hip's YouTube channel tonight at 7pm! One of the best Canadian bands of all-time!
7 ‘Eh-List’ Celebrity Canadians
How's she goin' eh? Canadians hold a special place in our hearts. That's why you'll frequently hear about 'Those Crazy Canadians' on Dave & Chuck The Freak. However, not every famous Canadian has done something worthy of making the segment. In fact, many celebrities are indeed Canadian. Here are 7 'Eh-List' Celebrity Canadians that everyone knows.
Now, just because everyone knows these celebrity Canadians that have become household names doesn't mean they know these celebs are Canadian! Of course, some will be obvious than others.
Some of the biggest names in show business are Canadians. There are musicians, actors, comedians, and athletes alike that all hail from Canada. These Canadians are our buddies, they are our guys, and they are our friends. Sorry, South Park.
I decided to do a list of 7 'Eh-List' celebrity Canadians, but there are much more than 7 of them. Limiting the list to only 7 caused a few problems. That meant some big names were being left on the cutting room floor!
Here are some recognizable names of celebrities you might not have known were Canadian that didn't make the list of 7: Keanu Reeves, Celine Dion, Michael J. Fox, the late Matthew Perry, William Shatner, Will Arnett, Neil Young, and more!
When you look at the full list, it's actually very impressive! The funniest comedians in the game seem to be from Canada. There's Mike Myers, Dan Aykroyd, Phil Hartman, and more that we'll talk about in a minute. Then, the world of rock and roll is no different! You've got Chad Kroeger, Avril Lavigne (think they mind being so close to each other on this list?), and who could forget The Barenaked Ladies? Also, I know he's not rock but I feel like I have to mention Michael Buble because he's Canadian and I think we'd get along very well.
Regardless, here are 7 'Eh-List' celebrity Canadians!
Seth Rogen

Seth Rogen is one of my favorite people on the planet. He's hilarious and he seems like a good dude. In other words, the ultimate Canadian! He talks about growing up in Canada a lot. He has a lot of pride for his homeland.
Honestly, if I could pick one celebrity to hangout with, I'd pick Seth. I have no doubt we'd be good friends.

Justin Bieber might not have all the traits that Canadians are known for having, like being pleasant and generally nice, but he still is Canadian! The superstar was born in London, Canada. They might not want to claim him, but it remains true.
Jim Carrey

Jim Carrey is another funny person from Canada. He was born in Newmarket, Canada. One of the funniest people of all-time, in my opinion. You can always count on Jim for a laugh.

You probably were aware that Drake is Canadian. He talks about it a lot in his music...like a lot! He's also frequently spotted at Toronto Raptor games. Yeah, he's Canadian.
Ryan Gosling

Ryan Gosling isn't just Ken--he's Canadian! It rhymed better in my head. Ryan proves Canadians aren't just kind or funny...they can be sexy, too!
Pamela Anderson

Speaking of sexy Canadians, that brings us to Pamela Anderson! Yes, indeed, she is Canadian. She was born in Ladysmith, Canada. She was originally discovered at a BC Lions football game in Vancouver wearing a Labatt's Beer t-shirt. How Canadian is that??
Ryan Reynolds

Ryan Reynolds is many things: an actor, a soccer team owner, an entrepreneur, a father, a husband, and most importantly--a Canadian. He was born in Vancouver. His father was even a Royal Canadian Mounted Policeman! Very Canada.
