Good point. Somebody wants to sell records in the US of A.

Hip and Who or Who and Hip ??

Hip! Hip! Hor-wwhoooo !!

...


now if we could somehow get Pearl Jam and the Hip to play (and maybe even...dare i say...JAM!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!) together...

that'd be something!

ooooo, with Neil Young and Gordon Lightfoot on the bill as well!

I wouldn't be up for this because as much as I'd like to see Pearl Jam I wouldn't want to see the Hip open for them. To us the Hip is the bigger better band but acording to the US market PJ ownes and I don't think they'd agree to open for the Hip here in Canada, although you never know!!

I'll bet they'd do it if it were part of a festival like Another Roadside Attraction. Midnight Oil always had a rule that they never opened up for anybody, but when it came to ARA, they were all for it.

who cares who openes? give em both the same amount of time to play, and i could care less who went on first...

I got my tickets today.

lucky man...

I wanted badly to see The Who in Toronto on Dec 4, but I can't go, but it's cool, I'll settle for The Hip in Sudbury in January...

also, i'm thinkin of maybe going to see Slayer in February...

I already bagged a ticket to see the Who in Boston on 12/2/06.

I figured having the Pretenders as the opening act was definitely a two-fer...

but the Hip?! OMG!

I swear I was the only one with a Hip concert shirt at the 10/23/95 Page / Plant show in Boston...

The Hip in Mexico would be amazing! Good luck trying to find someone to attempt to record it though!

My girlfriend and I are planning a trip to Mexico this spring... I should suggest the week of March 17.
