So what does The Tragically Hip and Bath Ontario have in common? Well Canada’s ambassadors of Rock & roll, The Tragically Hip, has found this really cool place to practice their musical song writing artistry in the great city of Bath Ontario.
The band is an extension of Canada’s way of thinking and life style to most of us rockers up here. The village of Bath Ontario has the same sort of relationship to our country’s identity of the past and now the future. Bath was founded by United Empire Loyalists, who help forge our history as far back as 1784.
This village is found outside of Kingston Ontario, which happens to be the home town of The Tragically Hip.
I found this little bit of The Tragically Hips trivia while leafing through our latest installment of Macleans Magazine, a weekly Canadian News publication. It shows these intimate pictures of the band and their new castle! This venue would make any band jealous with envy!
So check it out and tell us if you had, or you knew a band that had, a practice hall quite like this before? I never had a rehearsal hall anything like this, but I would have killed for something like this in the past!
Keep on Jammin’
I remember in the past Led Zeppelin had a castle where they practiced. Apparently there is a castle/recording studio that has fantastic acoustics. Imagine what stone walls would do for reverb and a hall sound.
I once visited a studio in Texas that was built underground. It was made from imported rock that completely diffused the sound making a perfect recording studio. It only cost $1M to make the room !!!
Now if i had more dollars then sense then I could have one of those $1 M. home recording studios as well! I’d even let you check it out GregR!!!
