I know there is allready a "live from the vault" thread, but I thought this Austin show deserved its own thread.
First off, I'm surprised that there was a show from 2002 that only had 4 IVL songs played Confusedhock:
Regardless, they make up for it with So Hard Done By and Inevitability Of Death.
I haven't heard the show from the Hammer yet, but my hopes are high. It will be hard to top the first two I've heard, but based on my boot of the Hamilton show, it will give it a run for its money. I just can't wait to scrounge up the money to find it.

Damn, I wish I saw the Hip in 02.

Each tour, every song sounds different.

1998 Poets sounds different then 99 versions, 2000 version, 02 versions ... etc. Hot damn, what a great band.

  The Stooges guitarist Ron Asheton found dead

The Stooges guitarist Ron Asheton found dead at 60

ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — Punk guitarist Ron Asheton of The Stooges has been found dead in his Ann Arbor home. He was 60.

City police Sgt. Brad Hill says there were no signs of foul play, and the death appeared to be of natural causes.

Hill says officers discovered Asheton early Tuesday after they were called to his home around midnight by an associate who hadn't heard from him in several days.

Asheton was an original member of The Stooges, the influential protopunk band founded in Ann Arbor in 1967. Asheton's brother, Scott, was the band's drummer.

Asheton's distorted guitar was a hallmark of the Iggy Pop-led group's late-1960s and early-1970s sound. He was named the 29th greatest guitarist of all time in 2003 by Rolling Stone.

  CBC's Obama playlist

The CBC's running this thing where they will compile 49 "definitive" Canadian songs and attempt to get Barack Obama to listen to them.

There's no guarentee that he's going to actually listen to or like them, but I thought it might be worth a push to get a Hip song on that list. Few could dispute that they fit the bill of "definitively Canadian" music.

My first thought for which song to push is Fireworks, and I'm trying to compose a case to put to the people running the contest, but what do the rest of you guys think?

  My Wife is Graduating University soon

I have a problem here. My wife has been getting her B.A. in Psycology at the University of Waterloo. Thru distance education.
She has been at it for 4 years now all on her own. No class advantage. Just all on her own in our dining room. She is averaging in the 80% range. she has only 4 coarses left to go.
I want to do something real special for her, as she has been the cornerstone of our family. ( our 2 kids and myself)
Without her we would be totally lost.
She is an amazing person and Does not want for anything.
My problem is that she is the first person in her or my families to graduate from University. (both of us grew up in alcholic families) so education is not really something that was put forth as important. Yet she did it all herself.
I have no fucking clue what to do to make it special and tell her how much I admire her. So IM ASKING FOR SUGGESTIONS.
SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE APPRECIATED. Thanks.
I know this has nothing to do with Hipbase but im asking everybody and everyplace I know.
Wesley. :thumb:
