Saddened and shocked by this. I grew up listening to these guys. They truly are an incredible band. I'm glad they're going to do one final tour. My thoughts are with you, Gord.

That sucks! Does he have a GBM or some other aggressive form of brain cancer?
There's a press conference this morning at 11am at Sunnybrook to release more information. Downie won't be there but two band managers will be. Tour details for the summer are supposed to come out later this week.
Sad news. Great Canadian.

I saw them play live many times, but most notably they played a small room at my university in maybe 1985 or 1986. Can't stand Downie's solo stuff, or the Hip stuff over-influenced by Downie, but as a band they've made some enduring Canadian rock music. Hopefully I can catch them one more time.
