I'm sure this has been done before but i've been a memeber since october and haven't come across this sort of thread and with the new tour and all i'm sure alot more fans have joined the hipbase so i decided to make a thread of it. Besides, who doesn't like a fun poll every now and then?
personally its a tose up between bobcaygeon and the darkest one. i'm going to have to pick the darkest one though, what can i say, i love the trailer park boys. :mrgreen:
EDIT
ok well i guess disregard the poll portion of the thread, something got all fucked up there. i guess theres only a certain number of options availible for the poll. sorry people... this thread is a mess.
Where's the 'My Music At Work' option?!
Or Vaccinnation Scar, and In View?
But I see your edit...
My favs are Something On and ABAC. I really like The Darkest One - just because it's silly, and Music At Work because I'm in it... look really hard during the concert scenes and you might, if you have a really, really big screen, be able to see me in the crowd. Might.

Really?! That's cool! For a moment then I thought you were one of the people in the smoking room or something.
Oh, I've been meaning to ask - What are the 'The Filters' references about in that video?
i like locked, and silver jet videos
Always been partial to Locked, Darkest One and Nautical. Something On is pretty good too.

The video was filmed on Mother's Day and as I was stuck in Toronto, my Mom in Kingston - it was a great day filler.
The Filters is the name of a band that members of The Hip were once in... before The Hip. In their videos that features live performance, the name on the drum kit is always one of their former bands.
not too far back someone posted the dire wolf fan video from clips of the virgin suicides movie, if that was a real video that could very easily be my favourite. it fit so well together.

Yeah, I bet. Did you Mum see it that way though?

Ah, ok. Thanks for explaining that, chris.

I think was just a fan made thing. I agree that it was really good though.
if you want to have a quick look see - there are about 17 vids on YouTube – still have not found Locked, Nautical, Greasy, Something On and Vaccination Scar - about 2 months ago the official Hip YouTube site put up five videos but nothing since....
btw - my fav is Blow - the backdrop imagery for the video is great!

Poets is hands-down the best and NOIS is hands-down the worst.
