Yes, it was Smallville Season 2, the final episode of the season (#23). Smallville is "The WB" biggest hit in the US, so it was good exposure. Smallville is filmed in Vancouver - not sure if the connection is through that coincidence or not.

Absolutely. The Hip were my favorites for the longest time, but Matt Good has become my number one listening choice - the music and the lyrics combine to form unique music with a message. It's also great that you can still see him in a relatively small venue. I refuse to go to arena tours - it has to be about the music, not the spectacle.
