I know the Tragically Hip were never really that popular outside of Canada, but this is a very, very sad day for us. We all knew it was coming, but frontman Gord Downey has finally succumbed to brain cancer.

:(

EDIT: I was just watching the news. Our Prime Minister was crying. Hard. Damn.

No idea who he is, but it's always sad to hear a rock star dead. We're losing all of the great musicians. RIP.

The Tragically Hip are like THE Canadian band. As I've said, they weren't that popular outside of Canada but in Canada they were superstars.

We do have a general RIP thread here, and Downie's death is being discussed there right now.
