only if it's a big hard time.

thanks for the link

maybe you should have gotten your fat ass into the store then to buy some records instead of pissing on the guy's grave now. it's not like the bankruptcy was unexpected.

Sad news ... Rest in Peace Sam one of my favourite tips of the hat to Sam over the years ...

neat. did you get tix?

Happy Birthday Pete

send the wifey. that's what she's for.

TIX up on TM NOW! http://www.ticketmaster.ca/event/100048D090EA2DA0?majorcatid=10001&artistid=734679&minorcatid=60

singles on TM now. they had pairs avail this morning.

I would suggest you have a timer switch like this installed with the exhaust fans, rather than a simple switch. You will thank me for it. The only issue is that wiring requires a hot wire at the switch and not a single leg down to it so you might need an electrician. ps, i totally sound butch, dont I?

madge's late starts is an homage to ms. courtney love.

so, should I go to the TO show?

for all of our american friends and everyone around the world affected by the sad events 11 years ago today. (not intended to be a thread for blame, just memory and respect ... thanks)

ok, so this now has to rank as the single most fucked up concert sale ever. was this a summer project for a high school student who's now gone back to class and cannot fix the mess? half the links in the Hip email don't work. you have to buy a football ticket in order to buy a concert ticket. you have to register on the ticats site to buy anything. now the "auction only" floors are $500/pr, but there is no way to actually buy them. jeesh.

look at you, the video harvester. :hail: thanks! and thanks to your wife for filming too! if i'd known we'd be getting all these i would have bought you a steamwhistle.

did anyone try the presale today? i got an email from the hip fanclub that contained a link and a password. got in alrite, but then it required that i enter my ticats account info. huh? ticats account? not my hip fanclub account info? jeesh. wizards.

well, they will be homeless next year ... actually, correction, they will be on the road for the whole season, with each other CFL city hosting them twice (one as the "home" team) as well as moncton hosting them twice as the home team. i was just chatting with a colleague who is connected to the ticats and he indicated this hip concert was totally unexpected and seems to have come out of nowhere. he's not even sure how it came to be.

yes. which is why I suspect there may be some sort of charity involved. surely the band is not looking to gouge fans, but I guess I wouldn't be surprised if the ticats or the city were looking to do just that. the whole thing just looks fishy.

still just frosh week, but they have already thrown my peaceful morning coffee jaunt into chaos. ... heavy sigh ...

wow. same. those are shameful prices for those sorts of really bad seats. the band cannot be pleased about that blatant gouge. (unless there is a charity involved)

cool. you were really close. thanks for posting these videos!

you didnt see me because I saw you first ... and hid had a great time as well. very nice venue. may make this a regular thing.

well played.

hey all, the festival is this weekend. i wondering if anyone here attended the festival last year and can help me with question i have. what exactly is the deal up close to the stage? the photos from last year show a bunch of blankets spreadout on the ground with families sitting on them. are these blankets there all day and into the evening? ie., do people claim blanket space and then wander around? events have conspired that will allow us to possibly now attend the show (yay!) but im concerned about whether we will be able to wander up close to stand, dance and see the show, especially later on into the performers, or whether we will be stepping all over people's blankets who've been there all day and just wanna sit. i know, im a selfish asshole ... but im just wondering what i should expect. thanks!

i can feel the love from here
