Well, we see the EP and MAW tie in Round 1 and say goodbye to them!

15 - EP and Music at Work

Vote for the album cover that you think has the weakest artwork. After 24 hours we will eliminate the album art with the most votes. In the event of a tie, we will eliminate both (or more) albums.

Voting will end on Friday at 9:59am Eastern.

Happy voting,

Shane

How many of you older folks on here woke up on your 38th birthday and immediately listened to "38 Years Old"? Asking because, having very recently turned 38, I woke up and immediately listened to "38 Years Old," kissed my wife and told her I'd literally been waiting for that moment for three years.

Anyone else?

This one was proposed by someone (sorry - forget who) but I thought it was interesting and one I wanted to do before we finish off The Hip Weakest Links.

Vote for the album cover that you think has the weakest artwork. After 24 hours we will eliminate the album art with the most votes. In the event of a tie, we will eliminate both (or more) albums.

Voting will end on Thursday at 9:59am Eastern.

Happy voting,

Shane

I am not sure if this has been discussed
But would like to open it up to what everyone thinks he is the hips equivalent to the dead’s Barron hall show

I think contenders should be

MLG 95
Toronro concert hall 1997
Another roadside attraction 1993 markahm fair grounds
Maybe kumbaya 1993
London phantom power surprise shows 1998
Evening with the hip 2000

Would love to hear all your thoughts

The white whale of my collection, the Fort York snake poster. I’ve searched for years upon years, alas, I’ve never found one. If you have one, and you’re willing to part with it, let me know.

And then there were two!

3 - Courage
4 - Grace, Too
5 - Locked In The Trunk Of A Car
6 - At The Hundredth Meridian
7 - Gift Shop
8 - Bobcaygeon
9 - Little Bones
10 - Springtime In Vienna
11 - Flamenco
12 - Greasy Jungle
13 - Fireworks
14 - In View

Vote for the song you think is the weakest and after 72 hours we will remove the song with the most votes with the other being declared the champion.

This round will end on Monday at 9:36am Eastern.

Happy voting,

Shane

Hello HipBasers.

I'm the author of The Never-Ending Present (and co-author of Have Not Been the Same) and yes, I've been lurking here as part of my research while writing the book.

Thank you for your passion, your wisdom, your knowledge, your attention to detail, your spirit.

I haven't piped up here before because I wanted people to comment freely on the book without thinking I was in the room. I was, and I hope that's not considered sneaky or deceptive; if so, I apologize. I appreciate all the kind words as well as the criticism. And thank you particularly for the intelligent criticism I saw here, as opposed to knee-jerk reactions (which I did not at all see here).

I've met some of you at the Ontario events I've had in the last few months; I hope to meet more of you when I go to the Maritimes and out west in October on more legs of the book tour.

The other reason I didn't pipe up before is because I didn't want to be "that guy" pushing his book. (It was crystal clear I wasn't welcome on the FB group in any capacity.) But the book has done really well in the last four months. Thank YOU for that. So I'm not here now to promote it, but in the event anyone has any questions, I'd be happy to answer them. I have a thick skin. I'm also receptive to any factual corrections, which would be more than appreciated.

Cheers

And with Grace, Too bowing out, we have the final three.

4 - Grace, Too
5 - Locked In The Trunk Of A Car
6 - At The Hundredth Meridian
7 - Gift Shop
8 - Bobcaygeon
9 - Little Bones
10 - Springtime In Vienna
11 - Flamenco
12 - Greasy Jungle
13 - Fireworks
14 - In View

Vote for the song you think is the weakest and after 48 hours we will remove the song with the most votes. In the event of a tie, both (or more) songs will be eliminated.

This round will end on Friday at 8:12am Eastern.

Happy voting,

Shane

Anyone here walking the long road to see Pearl Jam this summer? After much deft negotiation with my wife and boss I'm going to both Wrigley shows. I haven't seen Pearl Jam in over two years, which is an eternity by my standards, and I haven't seen them at Wrigley in five years - so I have great expectations.

With Locked eliminated, we're down to the final four:

5 - Locked In The Trunk Of A Car
6 - At The Hundredth Meridian
7 - Gift Shop
8 - Bobcaygeon
9 - Little Bones
10 - Springtime In Vienna
11 - Flamenco
12 - Greasy Jungle
13 - Fireworks
14 - In View

Vote for the song you think is the weakest and after 48 hours we will remove the song with the most votes. In the event of a tie, both (or more) songs will be eliminated.

This round will end on Wednesday at 8:00am Eastern.

Happy voting,

Shane
