..And it is amazing! It has a bunch of hidden gems and B sides from her older albums. There is even a song on there from way back in early 2002.
The Hip could take some notes from that little Pop-Tart
:lol: :lol: :lol:
there are so many concerts they could choose from to make a dvd. You have to think they will have something put together for this xmas.
They definitely need a DVD, but there is a very specific reason Hillary Duff has one already. Her managers know that her career is going to be very short so they need to gouge the fans now while they can, before they turn 15. Same as Avril - she had a DVD and a live CD after ONE ALBUM!!!! But yeah, the Hip have 10 albums and 20 years of material, not to mention thousands of shows. C'mon already!

unfortunately we can't count on the hip for anything any more.
1. 20 years and we get 1 live cd. dmb has been around for 12 yeras and they have put out 6 live cd's (all double cd's too) and 3 live DVD's.
2. we have a fan club that hasn't done anything for us (even the pre-sale tickets get messed up).
3. they announce a tour 2 days before tickets go on sale. their website 4. never gets updated.
they lost touch with their fans a long time ago.
It's a bloody great shame that we can't do anything, as fans. The loathsome behaviour of the management - you might even say their downright laughable "promotion" tactics - is a thorn in our collective side, but we still have to put down money for the shows. It's very irritating being unable to make a difference. I wish somebody in the band would read one of the myriad threads here pertaining to this topic. They should be embarassed that, with such brilliant music behind and ahead of them, their truest fans should think this way about everything else.
The "Something On" show from London in '98 is begging to become a DVD. The overhead would be nil, all it takes is some initiative.
A pure profit stream for the boys, and Much could release it like they do their Big Shiny Crap compilations.
no matter what it will never be able to compare to the Tenacious D Masterworks double DVD.
