    Excellent Album.

    I'm really likeing their recent music.

    A few gems on the new record (for me at least):

    Coffee Girl, Honey, Please, Morning Moon, Queen of the Furrows.

    The rest of the album is excellent as well.

    I had the priviledge of seeing them Front Row Centre at the Danforth on April 24th.

    It ranks #3 for favourite concerts behind Pearl Jam in Buffalo and Ben Harper in Toronto.

    Unreal show. It was like seeing them in a movie theatre. So close quarters.. excellent setlist. (Which I have) :)


    And all for $10. Cannot beat the Hip. Greatest Canadian band of ALL TIME.

    Sick sick concert last night. I was right on the rail. Gorde is just crazy and amazing lead singer. I'd go see the band again and again. Very great crowd. People came from all over canada and upstate ny. Crowd got a little rough at the end with people crowd surfing. Best 53 bucks I've ever spent. Gorde is a class act. kept thanking us fans a lot. Morning moon was just wow. Fully completely was the highlight for me. Played close to 2hrs and a half.

    Ditto on everything metsfan said! Here's a video I took of them singing "Coffee Girl"

    Enjoy!
    Great show! I was surprised at how many people were there who came down from Canada. I like how the first question people ask when you tell them you're from New York is "How do you know about the band?" I learned about them through this board actually :)

    Went to the Boston show and Saturday. My third hip show and seriously one of the top 3 shows I've ever seen. They easily give PJ a run for their money. Gordie is the most enigmatic crazy frontman of all time (though he can be a little over the top at times). Amazing setlist and spectactular crowd with great energy. Beautiful venue. I was on the balcony and the doors behind me looked right out on the Green Monster at Fenway. Happened to stand next to a fellow Tenclubber (thankfully we both had PJ related shirts; so where your shirts to other shows to meet friends!). He had never seen the Hip and didn't know much of their stuff and he said it was one of the best shows he's ever seen as well. New album is great and they are on fire this tour; so go out and see them. Can't wait for their show in Vermont in July.

    Anyone in Chicago out there interested in seeing the Hip on Wed the 27th? I've got an extra ticket, and having just moved here I don't really know anyone. Ticket is on me, would just like to meet someone to enjoy good conversation and the show with. *Not* looking for anything romantic or the like. Literally, just someone with similar music taste.
