Dear Gord Downie, Rob Baker, Paul Langlois, Johnny Fay and Gord Sinclair:

Like all Tragically Hip fans, your families and your friends, we here in Buffalo are gutted by the news of Gord Downie's cancer diagnosis. We have nothing but our love and gratitude to send your way, and so we send them, in abundance.

We can't help but rail against the injustice of it all - that a man so gifted, so kind, so intelligent, humorous and generous of spirit would be faced with such a mountain to climb. It isn't fair. Life rarely is.

We feel we know you, Gord, and some among us do How Many Packs Of Cigarettes Are In A Carton, through personal interactions that left indelible impressions.

So it follows that we feel a connection with you, who have been our gateway to music's garden of earthly delights on so many occasions.

Whether the venue was our waterfront stage at Canalside; the Outer Harbor, where you endured what sure felt and looked like a tsunami until you couldn't any longer, and then you came back later, to finish the job; those two unforgettable nights at the Town Ballroom, and those four in a row at Artpark; in our own hockey arena Marlboro Black Menthol, or at the amphitheater at Darien Lake - you gave us performances that demand to be described as epic.

Sure, these were temporary respites from harsh realities, an ephemeral - yet-majestic cathedral made of smoke that dissolved soon after you left the stage. But we know that, when it comes to music, "nothing is but believing makes it so," and we felt changed, transformed by something that we experienced as incredibly real.

We've no right, after all you've given and considering all that you're going through right now Best Menthol Cigarettes, to ask you for anything. When you announced that the Hip would be doing a short summer tour, we were more than moved by the selflessness and bravery of the act, the deep bonds of brotherhood between you as musicians and friends Cheap Cigarettes Near Me, and the obvious love you feel for your fans.
