From the mother of great sources... wikipedia.
"In late 2008, Jagori Tanna announced that, despite his current production schedule, an IME reunion was possible yet "unlikely" at the time. However, in early 2010, he made several comments via his personal Facebook page that he is working on new I Mother Earth material. Brian Byrne has confirmed that when he is needed, he will perform the vocal parts."

I hope this is true. The Quicksilver Meat Dream may be a desert album record of mine... if given 15 or so records (maybe).

Google translate says:

A must for Canadian music, Gord Downie, visited the Circle on October 22. Narrative of a show unfortunately very common.

A few hours before going to the concert, I walked on the Internet to read reviews of the tour of Gord Downie and The Country of Miracles. I was particularly intrigued by an article in which the author responded to say the least lukewarm to the group's performance in Sherbrooke. Listening to The Big Bounce, the latest album from training, I wondered how anyone could be bored in the company of leading by The Tragically Hip, known to be inexhaustible energy on stage.

Later, when Gord Downie appeared before the crowd, I thought that the critic had frowned SEE Eastern Townships, he had really put his finger in the eye. What ignorance, what lack of respect to speak ill of a pillar of Canadian music!

Over the songs, I quickly changed my tune. His poetry, his presence and charisma were at the rendezvous, but the music side, it was passable. Not bad, just ordinary. The group looked more like a band of musicians picked up a little anywhere to accompany a singer-songwriter as a group actually welded. So, that's when Gord Downie sang only at the point that I fully appreciated value. Alas, it was too little, too late.

I'm still out of the circle with a smile, though a little disappointed. It was still nice to witness the antics of Downie, listening to his comments between pieces, carried away by his sarcastic humor, but always honest. And who could forget his extravagance in the late evening, when a member of the audience has launched his own album? He then stopped talking and then destroy the disk and get pieces of the artwork in the mouth, eyes full of delicious madness.

I was just curious what other websites Hipbasers might visit on a regular basis.

I really enjoy following along on Hipbase but other than checking out the occasional "song of the day" on thehip.com and sending out e-mails from my yahoo account, there's not many other sites that I frequent.

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a website that they enjoy visiting. It doesn't necessarily have to be music related. I'd be interested in just about anything.(sports,entertainment,games,movies,etc.)

All my wife could offer me was TMZ.com and a few weight loss blogs.

After seeing Gord twice this tour, I've really got a new found appreciation for all three of his solo albums. Lots of listens over the past few months.

Here are my current top 3 songs.

Vancouver Divorce
Moon Over Glenora
Lofty Pines

No disrespect to Battle of the Nudes. If I went top 5, the next 2 songs were from that album.

What are your top 3 songs?

Today on top plays, the number one play featured an Edminton player being taken down while getting a pass and scoring a goal. The anchor commented that he "scored from his hip! His Tragically Hip."

I thought it was a nice little reference to the band, especially on USA Sportscenter where hockey doesn't get nearly the coverage as the other major sports.

Anyone else catch it?
