The Man Machine Poem Tour comprised 15 dates across Canada and concluded in the band\u2019s hometown on August 20, 2016. CBC carried the final concert nationwide under the title The Tragically Hip: A National Celebration, with the broadcast reaching one third of Canadians, according to a press release. It was one of the most celebrated concerts in the history of the nation.\n<\/p>\n<p>CBC\u2019s August 22 presentation will open with A Beautiful Thing, a special introduction directed by filmmaker Mike Downie, Gord Downie\u2019s brother.
