The Tragically Hip: No Dress Rehearsal

What a beautiful homage to the quintessential Canadian rock band the Tragically Hip.

I loved how well the documentary captured Gord Downie and how much I learned about the rest of the band.

The Hip's journey is told in an intimate and engaging way that only made me love the band even more. The last episode had me balling, even more so than when I watched the last Hip show live.

The interviews with the band members, family, friends, associates, and many Canadian icons helps tell their story

This is a definite must watch for any Canadian and it made me realize how much I miss The Hip. What a beautiful tribute by Gord's brother.

Rest in peace to Gord Downie and to The Tragically Hip.

Great documentary about a band more people should know about, and even if they aren't your cup of tea, a great story about friends and family and creativity.

From their early days in high school, to the farewell tour that concluded in their hometown of Kingston, this four-part series does a wonderful job telling the story of The Tragically Hip to fans and newbies alike.

The conglomeration of the American music industry has starved us of many international bands and their talent. I was glad to have access to MuchMusic to see the Hip. I encourage you to find the time to watch this documentary and be inspired.

Wow. I assume that most people outside of Canada do not know the band the Tragically Hip. I was first introduced to them by my Canadian cousin back in the 90's. Their music was always a great combination of bangers and beauty. But the lyrics... the lyrics! So stunningly profound and beautiful, but entirely without presence.

This documentary is a love letter to fans everywhere. It reveals the beauty and the artistry that the Hip displayed throughout their career.

As a writer, I am always drawn to the written word. Often I laugh at the words of others. Sometimes I am inspired by what I have read. But with Gord Downie's words I am left feeling amazed and in awe. I often get overwhelmed knowing that what he has made seem so simple, is just genius flowing from a 4 colored pen.

There are no sufficient words to rate this homage, because the only person who could write them has been taken from us too soon.

So well done that I hope people discover this band that may have missed them. I never cried so much my entire a life. It is a beautiful piece of work.

If you are Canadian rock fan, between the ages of 40-55, this if the most important band of your adolescence/early adulthood. This documentary hits at the right notes, tugs on your heart strings. It's so raw and emotional.

If you are a rock fan this is an absolute must see. I think this doc may finally get the hip the profile they deserve outside of Canada.

600 words? Really? What happened to brevity. Nine is going to read 600 words I've written.k. 600+.

Just watch it.

We are all richer for having seen this. Thank you so much to The Tragically Hip for sharing this with us. You have brought so much joy to our lives and continue to do so, please keep sharing we appreciate every moment with you! This is the greatest music documentary I have ever seen, the behind the scenes of the rise of The Tragically Hip to the top of their game was amazing to watch. It brought back so many memories. If this film doesn't bring out emotions in you, you're already dead inside. I want to thank every member of the band and everyone involved with the making of this masterpiece!!!!
