I had to get the dude at Zellers (They're the only thing open at 8am...) to bust me open a crate to get the CD! This guy was thrilled, THRILLED, that the Hip had a new release... seemed genuinely pulsed to have forty of them in his hands... so that put a smile on my face!
As I was leaving, I heard the first strains of "Heaven" lighting up the electronics department. So, if you're near Billings Bridge in Ottawa today: listening party at Zellers!
D-Man (my room mate) just got his copy at Best Buy Sherway in Toronto. As one of the first 20 people to buy it he also got a free lawn ticket to the Amphitheatre show.
I decided to try my luck, and zipped down to Best Buy. CD is in my player, and ticket is in my pocket. Woo Hoo!!!
They are also running a contest/draw for two front row centre tickets and backstage/meet'n'greet passes.
Future shop was closest for me, enjoying my first listen of heaven right now....Oh yes!
left work at 10 to go to the mall and picked up a copy
listenin to it right now!!!
Love the ART WORK.... the whole package is reallllll cooool!
went to futureshop, picked up music at work for $5.99 and in turn got in between evolution for $9.99. under $19 for both. nice deal.
pretty solid album, id have to say "you're everywhere" is my favourite so far.
the artwork is fabulous.
Plan on getting mine this afternoon, are there lyrics inside? Just curious.
all the lyrics are included, although i think hmv is a rip, i was surprised that the album was only 14.99, went there because they were open at 8 and someone gave me a gift certificate.
im gonna get mine after the show tonight...would like to buy one at the show if possible, and maybe get it signed :thumb:
I'm going to buy in 30 minutes on my lunch break.
7th row on thursday. woo-hoo!
I picked up mine this morning at A&B Sound for $12.99! I'm listening to it right now and I'm lovin' it!!! To borrow a line from Long Time Running: "It's well worth the wait."
Well after going to Zellers (it's closer, and i would have gotten the cd for free from using up my gift certificates) But they never even got thier shipment in!!! And i wasn't waiting a few days for the cd, so i just headed up to Future Shop, and got the cd. Sounds great so far! Awsome tunes, nice art work (i realy like the font they used for the text).
PS: hummmm! were have we heard 'mean streak' before! (very NICE)
I can't wiat for July 1st now!

Gotz mine at a local cd shop today: Pure Pop.
Anyone out there remember waiting in line at Pure Pop for the M@W disc with 2 tickets to the Higher Ground premier show attached ?
IBE sounds awesome.
Bought mine at HMV for $14.99. It was the closest store to where I was this morning and I wasn't about to go out of my way to save $5. They had IBE playing there too.
I love the rawness of this album. Nice to see they're letting Rob solo again.
I heard a rumor that there was a new Hip Club Card in this album, is it true?
Waiting for lunch so I can go grab my copy.
