  Can you still take pictures / videos at Hip concerts?

The Hip and the venue have permitted cameras and video at every show I've been to so far. Has this changed, or is it still OK? My daughter wants me to get a few minutes of the concert tonight in Detroit on her Flip, and I don't want to take it if I can't use it. Does anybody know for sure?

Thanks,

  Young Hip Fans?

Im a 17 year old from selkirk ontario and for as long as ive been able to walk ive been a hip fan. My favourite album is without a doubt road apples, although fully completely and phantom power stand out too. I believe the Hips best song is At The Hundreth Meridian due to its vivid and epic lyrics. Unfortunately growing up into todays world the majority of my friends dont have the opppurtunity to understand and really feel the Hip due to the amount of attention that is given to rap and metal music. I was wondering if there are any more hip youngens out there!
cheers folks

  All Music.com review of WATS

Posted by: Bookhead

Forum: Tragically Hip Discussion
- Replies (21)

Finally, almost two months after WATS was released (if the Hip were some NYC-based flavor of the month hipster band, the review would have been posted immediately), All Music.com has published a review of the album (by fairly respected music journalist Jeff Tamarkin). Predictably, it's fairly negative. Here you go:

"Initial reaction to We Are the Same among longtime fans seemed to range, according to chit-chat on various blogs, from halting acceptance to outraged disdain. There is no denying that the latest from this now 26-year-old Canadian band bears little resemblance to the rawer, rootsier sound of the Hip's earliest works. But it's by no means a radical departure from 2006's World Container; it's more of an incremental step toward something less distinctive and more universally appealing in a commercial sense. Producer Bob Rock (Metallica, Mötley Crüe), who also took the reins for that last album, returns here on the band's 12th studio effort, applying a polish to these generic arrangements of largely uninspired lyrics and hackneyed tunes that undeniably takes the Hip closer to a mainstream — or, rather, an edge-free, knuckle-dragging — pop/rock sound. Some might call it a bloated overproduction and leave it at that, but the malaise is deeper than over-ambition, approaching something closer to creative bankruptcy. Perhaps it shouldn't be so surprising that, after so long in the game, the Hip might harbor a desire for greater recognition and choose a producer who can deliver what's been elusive all these years. And at isolated moments the drive to reinvent as something more Walmart-friendly succeeds: while there is a definite softer edge to most of these tracks, and an overall tameness, although that's not to say that theTragically Hip has abandoned everything that's identified them until now. Paul Langlois' and Rob Baker's guitars still scream and shout, or glimmer and shine, when required to, the rhythm section, bassist Gord Sinclair and drummer Johnny Fay, can kick up dust when given a chance, and Gordon Downie, when he's not over-emoting, still delivers his words convincingly and with emotion. The problem is more with the songs themselves and the gloss within which they are bathed: there is a derivativeness to much of the record, and a silliness to the fancy-pants settings they are given (strings abound, ballads plod, layers of unnecessary window dressing are added), a feeling that too many of these tunes were created with the sole desire to find a larger audience rather than to reflect what Downie and the band are really about after so much time together. It opens with a promising enough country-rocker, "Morning Moon," that would, in a more just world, be a huge hit single. And "Coffee Girl" too, with its bold, tasty trumpet, is the kind of perfectly crafted gem these guys have time and again proven they can turn out. But it quickly descends into pretense and earnestness with the back-to-back treacly "Now the Struggle Has a Name" and the nine-and-a-half-minute "The Depression Suite." With its oft-repeated tag line "Don't you wanna see how it ends?" the epic only has the undesired effect of causing the listener to say, "No, I don't, just end it already." From there, it stays in an abyss, as songs like "Love Is a First" (the first single), despite an attempt at rhythmic punch, and "Speed River" fail to drag the album back from the pit of mediocrity it's plunged into. At this point in their career the Tragically Hip should be making grander, more honest statements than this. We Are the Same is obviously meant to resurrect the band's fortunes rather than to further their artistry. Whether it does or doesn't find what it's seeking, its main accomplishment is that it drives the Tragically Hip closer to irrelevancy. And that's tragic."

  Tonight in Detroit!!

Can't wait to see The Hip tonight in Detroit. We make an event of it, and about 6 of us go to see them fairly regularly. We were at Cobo for Live Between Us, saw them in Cleveland and Grand Rapids at smaller venues. Plenty of times in and around Detroit, and it never get's old. Tonight, we're taking somebody that has never been to a Hip show. I can't wait to watch him convert! Hearing their music is one thing. Seeing it is something completely different.
