I think that we should contact The Hip's management and try to get them to 'recognize' this site officially, and allow a few Hipbase correspondants special access during each show. After the show, the correspondants would have to file their show report with Hipbase - posting the pics/reviews/BT's for all Hipbasers to enjoy.

Photographer
Backstage and media gallery up front.

Reporter
In partnership with the photograher, write an official Hipbase review; and captions for pictures.

Videographer
I think the name is self explanatory.

Audiographer
Access to the soundboard area to set-up their audio recording gear. (Soundboard patches could be an added bonus)

When the tour/shows are announced, interested members would have to sign-up for a position, and the shows that they would be able to attend, and perform their task. We could appoint an Editor who would choose via random draw who gets to report on each show.

Whaddya think?

Well, I just took in the Sarah show here in Vancouver and she is in fine form! She still sounds great live, even after such a long hiatus between albums. I'm a longtime fan and have everything except the new disc, but I'll pick it up now after hearing six or seven of the tracks at the show. The only other time I've seen her was on the final Lilith Fair tour in 1998, again here in Vancouver.

Sarah's looking great as usual, and I was surprised to see how long her hair is now! It was a great show to end the North American tour. She said it was probably the biggest crowd on the tour (with the largest concert configuration, GM Place was packed - probably 18,000. I was on the floor in row 15)

Sarah played over twenty songs with a double encore. Fallen opened the show. Blackbird opened the first encore and Stupid closed it. Along with the new songs, she played Possession, Wait, Ice, Hold On, Ice Cream, Fear, Fumbling Towards Ecstasy, Building A Mystery, Sweet Surrender, Adia, Angel, and Witness.

Just finished watching Jay Leno. He ended by announcing next weeks guests, and he said Sam Roberts which I think he said Monday.

When we teach Ascension we explain the creation of habit by the grooves that are created in the brain and the creating of new grooves or habits in choice for expansion, love and Truth as opposed to fear, contraction and illusion.

Consider what the requirements for growth of happiness and health are. If our world-view is outmoded, not giving us what we desire, if we are sick or not filled with continual joy of life, it is necessary to introduce a new way of living, a new way of perceiving, a new level of consciousness into our lives. To do this we must allow our old , cherished beliefs to change. For it is exactly our beliefs that structure our perceptions of the world.
It is not probable that peaches will grow on apple trees. If we have become discontented with apples and desire peaches, we must plant a different kind of tree. If there are areas of our life in which we are discontented, in which we are not living in complete fulfillment, perfect peace, unbounded joy, and if we wish to change these areas, it is necessary to adopt a different way of looking at our lives and our world.
When we look with condemnation on ourselves or others, we contribute to a lowering of the vibratory rate of the Universe. This does not mean that we should attempt to repress our negative feelings if we have them! Repression of negativity is one of the major causes of the breakdown of our mental, emotional and physical health.
It does no good to have negative feelings about someone or something and then force ourselves to ignore them. They will have their effects anyway.
And the effects will be stronger the more energy we feed them through repression.
But it is possible to culture a state of consciousness in which we look with divine compassion on the world always. Instead of looking out and seeing sin everywhere, we look out and see all people trying to do the best they can.
This is the perception of the enlightened-- all people are doing the best they can, everywhere, always. No exceptions.

What this means is there is no denial of creation, even its illusions. Beliefs are integrated into the awareness of creation as the maintainer of the personal Universe.
The maintainer of creation is always holding a vision of Truth within creation. Human enlightenment is structured within the reality of perception, both at its grossest levels and its most expansive multidimensional levels.
If we are Truly to become God there will be nothing denied from our awareness or experience

This has already been discussed in one form or another, but since we are about a week from the start of the US tour, I'm serving it up again.

Pick one (ONLY one) rarely played (a few times per tour) or completely forgotten song off each cd you'd like to hear this tour. Mine:

IVL: The Dark Canuck
M@W: Sharks
PP: Emperor Penguin
TatHH: Don't Wake Daddy
DfN: Titanic Terrarium
FC: Eldorado
RA: Twist My Arm
UtH: The Song About Pee
EP: Highway Girl

Has anybody picked up any of the "Jesse Who?" clothing line?

This hasn't been played at any of the six most recent fest shows (TO molson amp - Sud).

I hope Heart hasn't been dropped for good as it is one of my favorite songs on IBE - it ROCKS! I wonder why the guys seem not to like playing it.

Btw, the other IBE songs left off the setlist at fest shows (# out of 6):

NoiBeat: 5
Everywhere: 2
Makeshift: 3
Copie: 5
Family: 4

Sorry if I have missed this in other posts. Sneaking this in quick while the boss is away. Me and my cousin are trying to put this road trip together. Leave from North Battleford SK and head down to the Seattle show. It falls on the Thanksgiving weekend so it may be a possibility. Just wondering who else is going. Will this show sell out soon? What is this Showbox venue like? Any input would be wicked!
