I have also noticed that Mav has not posted anything for some time now and I hope its because he is too busy trying to please us instead of resenting the fact that we are not grateful for what he and the band has done for us.
As far as all of the pre-sale options go, it does piss me off slightly that there are so many ways to purchase this album and each way has its own beifits. i would much rather these bonus songs be ALL available through thehip.com but even though im not a telus subscriber i still think my oportunity will come to listen to these songs. just be thankful thatr we are aware that these songs exist and we have the potential to hear them.
Im sure MAv doesnt give a rats ass about what anyone says here, he does what he wants to regardless. Who cares if he dont like it anyway, Im not go to censor myself just in case Mav or the Hip (lol) come on and read something..oooh. And especially not for a pussy like you.
And from what you wrote you slightly pissed off and not happy about the album purchase options and the bonus songs..well what do you think were bitching about, the same shit. At least were not afraid to speak up about it, I dont care who likes it I say what I want regardless.
If Lance doesnt like it he can tell me to leave I could care less.
And as for Tiger and his bitching, so what, I dont always agree with him but at least he's interesting, if not for people like him this would be one of the most boring forums on the web.

Here's a way the Hip could "stop the bitchin" -- emulate what Phish (who had plenty of ticket glitches of its own) is doing with its tour kick-off shows...
Quote:Free Hampton MP3 Downloads at LivePhish.com
In celebration of Phish's first shows in over four years, we're thrilled to be able to offer fans free, high-quality downloads of the band's sold-out March 6th, 7th and 8th concerts at Hampton Coliseum in Hampton, Virginia at LivePhish.com.
Each show will be professionally multi-tracked and mixed onsite and within 24 hours, 256kbps MP3s will be made available for free for a limited time at LivePhish.com. Fans who wish to download higher quality versions may purchase FLAC downloads. The shows will also be available on CD. Both are available for pre-order now. Register at LivePhish.com to receive an email when the free MP3s are available.
"We really wanted to show our gratitude to all the Phish fans for their support and the overwhelming response they've had to these shows. It's going to be an amazing celebration and we only wish everybody could be there," said Trey Anastasio.

Or even what what Umphrey's McGee is doing:
Umphrey's McGee and iClips Network are excited to announce a 5 concert pay-per-view broadcast series beginning Wednesday March 25th. For $5 per show, fans will be able to live stream Umphrey's performances from:
Cains Ballrooom - Tulsa, Oklahoma (3/25)
Liberty Hall - Lawrence, Kansas (3/26)
The Pageant - St. Louis, Missouri (3/27)
Minglewood Hall - Memphis, Tennessee (3/28)
Town Ballroom - Buffalo, New York (4/1)
Fans can save a few bucks by purchasing all 5 shows for $20. These performances will be archived soon after each performance and available for viewing for 1 week after they are archived with an access code granted upon purchase. So even if you are at the shows, you can relive the incredible experience once, twice, or ten times over.

I don't have any problems with the bitching. nor do I have a problem with people bitching about the people who are bitching. Where I feel you cross the line is where you begin calling people pussey etc...
Bitch away, but personal attacks are not necessary

I think people need to realize that the Tragically Hip is a corporation, a business, etc, and must act as such in order to play the game with industry exec's. They were a business partnership from day one when Robbie's dad invested their earnings in property (Cayman Islands). Yes, it must be nice that Gord Downie has a million dollar summer home on Indian Point that is used probably half the year, while others work six-seven days a week and never see their homes/or families. But, we live with the freedom to choose whether or not to buy the concert tickets, records,etc, that ultimately pay for the rock star lifestyle. Actually, 49.50 for balcony seats at Massey Hall isnt too bad. However, I have heard other prices that see inconcievable for the financial times we are going through. What really pisses me off is that some scalper asshole is selling front row centre at Massey for $500 bucks on ebay. How can we avoid this? I know the Hip do not approve. To be continued.

Somebody needs a hug. Seriously dude, there's no reason whatsoever to get this riled up on an Internet message board. Take a step back and chill out.

Hey Lizard Kid and Tigger Too, we are all free to speak our minds but the mean spirited stuff is uncool.
Consider yourselves moderated!

This is more the message I wanted to get across last night when I posted. I'm not on this forum to get into fights about nothing with people I will probably never meet.
