Tragically Hip for Macleans

I've been psyched to share this one -- a map published in Macleans paying tribute to the Tragically Hip and the Canadian locations mentioned in their songs. 

It was a challenge squeezing all of that stuff into the map -- hope it's not too much of an eyesore!

I've always loved the Hip. Favourite songs: "Nautical Disaster", "My Music at Work", and "So Hard Done By". I can't say anything about the band that hasn't already been said, but their music is magic and truly Canadian.
