Hey Folks,

I can no longer afford to keep the FTP up and running. The amount of data being downloaded was much greater then I thought it would be. So I have now taken thehip.myip.org offline for downloading shows.

However, I am still willing to do trades by mail. So if your interested, you can go to <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://thehip.myip.org">http://thehip.myip.org</a><!-- m --> to view my lists.

Cheers
Brad

Well personally Seattle was an awesome show. Great
summer night. Being on the Pier with downtown on the
left and Puget Sound on the right was simply awesome.
Saw some tall ships and yachts pass, along with the
Washington ferry a bunch of times. Couldn't have
asked for anything more that day. I've seen ARA
Vancouver twice and IVL Camrose, but this show put a
new spin on 'outdoor concert' for me. approximately
4000 people, aisles, bleachers, beer gardens,
everything was packed. Saw all of Wayne's set. They
put on a good show and everyone was very polite to
them, no hip hip hip chants. They said a few times
were very thankful to have been touring with the boys
and played around 8 songs, and it was their final show
of the tour.

Night fell and the chants began. The boys came out
and started right away. As with most past reviews,
they sounded really good and played some of the usual
suspects. Early in the show, someone right in front
had a hockey trophy, probably about 3-4 feet in
height, and placed it on the stage in front of Gord &
Gord during NOIS. Looked wicked from the bleachers
and Terry & I had a good chuckle. Within a minute or
two, one of the roadies took it down. Gord proceeded
to sing "checking out the highlights of the scenery,
saw some little trophies, they looked a little like
me". Next was Fully and Gord introduced it by saying
"there's only room for one trophy on this stage". The
roadie must have given it back to the guy because it
came back later for a brief while, back in front of
G&G. Loved the light show in Weaken, the yellow
lights timed perfectly with the drum beats during "in
a face so full of meaning, as if to almost make it
glow..." Grace and Blow where my favorites of the
night. Blow was awesome, again with the lights, this
time blue with lots of strobe effects and low
spotlights. All around rad show and a great way to
cap off a great day.
Great seeing Gina again with her new hairstyle, we
chatted after the show, albeit too briefly. Met a dude
from Wayne (Michael) with her. Hooked up in line with
Oded, his buddy with the ball cap (sorry can't
remember his name), and Oren before the show, along
with Mark and his buddies. Met Todd Letourneau and
Steven Philpott, great guys. Had a fellow Barilko
jersey owner come up to me out of the blue and strike
up a conversation. He got the white home Hip jersey
done with red Leafs-style name bar/number.

Eveyone was really cool and friendly, thanks to
everyone involved for making it such a memorable day.

If anyones got 2 tickets to the show on the 15th that they are willing to sell, I'm willing to buy!

Why do people like SHN so much? why do tapers and ftp hosts wish that these SHN shows not be turned into mp3's? why is SHN the best for these shows? i understand the differences between wav and mp3's but i am new to SHN's please assist me in understanding these music encoding types and your opinions on such types.

What a great Monday. finally getting over the Flu.
Figured out this tab last night and was excited to post this. Listen to the song to get the exact rhythm and chord placement. I think it sounds pretty good. What does everyone think ? ? ?

To anyone that has a hip jersey: Has anyone put GRACE on the back of their jersey's with the number 2? I'm thinking on putting it on my jersey and I'm wondering if it's a good idea. I've only seen someone with it at one of the shows.....

Any other thoughts?
