BOBCAYGEON, ONT. — Tragically Hip fans are flocking to Bobcaygeon, Ont., which is hosting a viewing party for what is expected to be the legendary Canadian band's final concert. Celebrations are also taking place internationally — at the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, the Canada Olympic House will host a party for Canadian athletes along with their family and friends. Bobcaygeon is shutting down its main street to screen the final stop of the Hip's "Man Machine Poem'' tour, which will be aired on CBC. The community became well known following the Hip's hit single "Bobcaygeon" from their 1998 album Phantom Power.
