I'm lurking, but no Gord and the gang in the hood..
check back later..
So these guys sponsored the Kingston charity gig, they've been spotted at the Bluesfest stops in Ontario, but does anybody have any idea when they'll actually be releasing recordings?
I've been waiting so long my clothes are going out of style...
Hello all, I'm new to the forums here. Huge hip fan, have tickets for a show at the orbit Room in Grand Rapids MI. General Admission.
Was just curious if anyone has ever been ther before? If so, what should I expect? How early should I get there to make sure I am up front?
Thanks in advance
I'm at work and want someone here to experience it...
Thanks!

THOUGHTS FROM THE ROAD - Vol. #1
Hi Fans;
Here's the first installment of our "Thoughts From The Road" feature, which will include musings from various band members while on tour. Check back often! Vol. #1 is courtesy of Gord Sinclair:
We've just finished the first week of our American tour and so far, so very good. We had a glimpse earlier in the summer of how well IBE was going to translate to the stage. The few shows we played in Canada were invigorating. We found a deep groove quickly that spread from the new material to the old.
It was tough waiting out August for the fall tour to begin. Where better to kick it off than Detroit Rock City? The beautiful Fox Theatre. A great stage, friendly crowd and our fantastic crew made the return very easy.
Hats off to Dean Roney, who was able to step in for our long serving sound man Mark Vreeken at the last minute. Mark's at home in Toronto recovering from an unfortunate accident, still steering the ship but by remote control this time. Get well and back soon!
We've been focusing on the new songs from IBE with each set. Each one takes on a life of it's own on stage, and that energy is infectious. Older songs spring to life and we've been inspired over the last week to dig a little deeper into the catalogue to pluck out a few gems for you. The mix of old and new material we're performing nightly has been working great. It's fun for us mixing things up, seeing what works from song to song. I love a set that flows, like a good record, with twists and turns, some comfortable islands of famliarity and the occasional surprise thrown in.
It's been great seeing a lot of old friends and familiar faces in the crowds so far, thanks for remembering and for your continued support. The North East has always been special for us. Hockey towns and music fans, funky old theatres and sweaty clubs. New York and DC stand out as special nights so far, but that's splitting hairs. Each show has taken on a life of its own.
We've just made the long right turn and are now heading south before continuing on to the west coast, dodging hurricane Jeanne along the way. Check out the dates on this site and come and see us sometime. We're ready for you! R U?

Since i never get any of the hips e-mails anymore! Does anybody know or heard anything when the Nov 28th tickets go on sale?
thanks
Chris
I noticed a taper in the audience at the 9:30 Club show...did anyone on this board video or audio tape the show?? I'd love to get a copy!!!!
All this talk about road trips, finding the funds, etc...it got me thinking...how far was the furthest you've gone to see a Hip show?? Mine, since I live in Buffalo, the furthest was San Diego which is 2,600 miles away (4,184 km for my fellow Canadian friends).
Anyone else??
If so, it's been posted here: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.easytree.org/torrents-details.php?id=7637">http://www.easytree.org/torrents-details.php?id=7637</a><!-- m -->.
