Hey there, am I allowed to sell other vinyl on here, besides Hip? I'm looking to attain some Hip LP's but have other bands to trade/sell. Is this alright?

I'm on assignment writing about bands that have toured with Das Hips. So far I have:

Arkells

Plaskett

I'm sure there's many, many more I'm missing. So let's hear 'em, with the year as well? Thanks all.

Hey folks, the sad reality is that many fans will be shut out of the official onsale this friday and be forced to resort to dealing with scalpers. If you do this, know that there are inherent risks. With shows with such high demand, there WILL be counterfeit tickets going around. The best way you can protect yourself from this is buying from a reputable seller that has a proven track record of standing behind their sales. Its next to impossible to get ripped off if you buy from stubhub, vivid seats or any of the "established" scumbags who despite manipulating the ticket market, will stand behind their customers. Worst case scenario is you get a fake ticket, but you get your money back fully. In most cases they will also try to find you a comparable ticket and leave it at willcall .....they can do this because they have such a massive pool of tickets in their possession. Basically what im saying is, DO NOT buy from craigslist, kijiji or ebay. If you give a random stranger cash for tickets, you run the risk of driving to the venue and being turned away at the door. The police dont have the resources to deal with this type of fraud and wont be able to get you your money back. Ive also seen and heard of people buying fake tickets from street scalpers as well, so please know the risks of buying this way.

It may have been mentioned elsewhere, but I thought this deserved it's own post - CBC in talks to broadcast 'final' Hip show: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.cbc.ca/news/arts/tragically-hip-kingston-broadcast-cbc-1.3609414">http://www.cbc.ca/news/arts/tragically- ... -1.3609414</a><!-- m -->

Selling 2 single tickets for Vancouver on the 24th.
Both are at face value and printable. After the craziness happened with the east coast presale, as a way of keeping the scalpers at bay - we decided to buy multiple. Anyway, these are my 2 left. ;-)

195.15 per seat Canadian. Not sure how much my credit card was charged in US $.


Floor R35 S11 ----- and ----- Section 116 R7 S11

Is anyone else getting irritated with he media coverage surrounding this tour ? Today I heard both Cbc and ctv report that all shows are sold out ....when the reality is that roughly 80% of tickets haven't even been released yet. Cbc radio was also singing Adeles praises today for using a paperless ticketing policy for select seating locations. They suggested the hip should have used his method ..... Which they actually are on almost every date of this tour. On top of this we have Alan cross feigning surprise at how fast the presales sold out and suggesting something unusual was going on . The real issue here is a massive demand and a limited supply of tickets . Anyway I guess my point is, if you've been shut out of he presales so far, don't buy In to the doom and gloom that the media is spreading !!!
