    Did anybody get the Live From The Vault: Volume 4 Package?
    I wasn't at first, but thought to myself:
    1) It's vintage '94 Hip
    2) Set list is rediculous
    3) The $14 CAD I would drop in a heartbeat just for the Live Cd

    The offer is on until the 27th I believe so check it out

    Can't wait for the trifecta of Hip shows in Winnipeg. I managed to scoop up rows 4, 7 and 7 respectivly.

    Detroit's GA. I'm still trying to decide if that's good or bad, hehe.

    GA is always good. Show up super early,get great seats, no hassle with shitty TM to try and get closer than 10 rows

    I was kind of surprised that I got right through at 10am for the Seattle show, but the best that came up was 10th row center...oh, well, I will be at the Moore...but, will be wondering how that many people got through before me! ;)
    I will not lose my Faith, it's an Inside job today....

    I hesitated and now I wish I hadn't ;) I just had a bad experience... I bought Hold Steady's new cd with concert tickets last summer and the CD didn't get to me until 2 weeks after the release date... I barely got it in time for the show! So I'm leery of this. Of course, part of me wonders if I'll be able to find the Hip's cd anywhere in Chicago anyway...

    I guess nobody wanted to see them in Kitchener! I pulled up ORC BB (second row) for the third Kitchener show and ORC HH (row 8) for the first night. I am not complaining :)

    BTW, if you guys are torrent savvy, look for a torrent called

    TRAGICALLY HIP BOOTLEGS 1985-1995

    and then look for a set of songs within that called ROAD APPLES ALBUM PREMIER.


    its fuckin awesome. its from 91 on a radio station and the HIP are interviewed before each song and tells you about it. really cool. each interview before the song is a good 2-3 minutes. lots of insight.

    Niiiiiiice. I was trying for Night #3 but was having some browser/ slow, old computer issues, so I ended up with a Monday nighter, waaaaay in the back (19th row, R. UB), but I'm in the aisle seat on the far right (170) ... which will likely make for a fantastic sight line.
    Just happy to be in the building. :)

    I hate that TM puts so many on-sale dates on weekday mornings, 'cause I don't have computer access at work. I would have preferred trying tomorrow's public on-sale considering that pre-sales are only allocated so many "good" seats, but had to make my attempt today due to that pesky work thing. I'd have to wait until 11 before I could phone in. I was able to try today 'cause my dog needs a liver biopsy, so I called in "sick" since management are being douchebags about vacation right now. If the results of the biopsy aren't good, at least I can take something positive away from today.
