Wonder what?? My guess is Niagara-on-the-lake announcement :jump
Man... I can't afford a tour right now
Yea, I seen that on their facebook wall. Probably the NOTL show.
My guess is a new album release/summer U.S. tour announcement. Road trip, anyone?
when any inside scoop?
10 night run at best buy theatre nyc?
OK, I am probably the minority here on this one - but WHY ALWAYS WITH THE FACEBOOK?
I see so much info posted on facebook that isn't available on the site first. It's not just the Hip, I see it for sports teams, other artists, retail.
Why do I have to join a 3rd party website to get YOUR news?
/end rant
Is it just me or is this starting to look more and more like a late spring release? Awesome development from MAv and the boys.

I agree; however, when it comes to the Hip I generally get all of my information well ahead of the masses via the hipbase. The odd time I somehow miraculously come into this information ahead of time, I try to share it with the rest of you's on hipbase.

Well, I see that, it's a fan forum, so news and rumors get discussed here by fans for fans. And official announcements should be at thehip.com.
I'm just getting old and cranky. Same when artists make official announcements on Twitter - wtf!
edit: also, stay off my lawn
Local radio here in Niagara was saying keep Canada day open then played Twist my Arm so part of the announcement is I am sure the NOTL show they did say tickets on sale by end of February but hopefully album news to go along with this would be even more outstanding!
If I remember correctly (but I may be a bit off on this), 'We Are The Same' was announced along with the '2009-07-23 - London, Ontario' show. Their ended up being almost three full months of touring leading up to the initially announced concert.

I'd sell my left kidney for a tour right about now!

Moving into the studio, eh. So does this mean they're still recording and that the album isn't even close to being finished? Or perhaps they're just doing the mixing and adding a few overdubs? Dammit, I need more info!
