thanks 
also congrats go to the openers...it will be a f-i-n-e show :jump
not sure about HDRC, but get Reconstruction Site by the Weakerthans. it's their last album, i think it's probably their best, in fact one of the best albums i've heard in a while. i cannot wait for NYE, this will be sweet!

Their second album "Left and Leaving" is just as good.
we (the HDRC) don't have an album out yet...but you can check out a demo (produced by Paul Langlois) on our website. The song is called "Surface Of the Sun".
And I agree, Left And Leaving is a great album.

Do you guys have a release date for the album yet?? I can't wait to get my hands on this thing.
We just finished mixing...I'll let you know as soon as I find out.
What is your part in the "choir" littleproud?
I play the drums...and sing some back-ups.
That's great that HDRC and the Weakerthans will open!
I heard that K-OS will be opening for the Hip as well.
-later
Will you be wearing your hipbase t-shirt? .....
where did you hear about K-Os opening??
can someone tell me a good weakerthans song? i downloaded a few to check them out and they were very unimpressive
