Holy shit - they just closed with Tiger The Lion!
Oh Wait.
That was a week ago Friday. And I just got the text now, almost an exact week later.

I cannot figure out why people have such a (Sean) boner over Twitter - I just don't get it.

Ha - and I just got a "Good Night" from last Friday.
11:00 at night - that is about EXACTLY one week later.
Nothing against The Hip - but Twitter rocks!

Okay, I'm gonna bite the bullet and defend Twitter.

For me, personally, I find it a very useful tool. I've added a lot of bands/record labels/PR companies and the like and it allows me to scan, very quickly, what news they are posting and then contact them accordingly. It's also interesting if you add the right celebs (I'd recommend Steve Buscemi for one), to read their stream of consciousness gibberish.

I am new to Twitter, still not sold on it, but its a little entertaining. Chris Cornell is interesting to follow as well, even answers a few posted questions.

Like 'What the Jesus Rubbery F**k are you doing to your music career???'

That would be my first one...

Wintersleep on the road can be entertaining, too...

every time I see the email notification that someone has replied to this thread that one line from Jim Carrey in the movie Batman Forever always plays in my head:
"Riddle Me This FRED!"

I just ran across this Hip poster in the Hip Tweets section of hipbase.
I am not sure what it is for yet, but it is pretty cool with all the "hidden" Hip songs titles.
And this is what the guy, who is from Buffalo, had to say: "markbrickey: Here are the 4 Tragically Hip "Test Pattern" themes, awaiting their last layer"

Reading more of his tweets and I found:

"I don't know if u saw the sample I put up last night but not only are we doing a Tragically Hip Poster were doing 4, 1 each night"

And then I found this:

Cool. He must be doing it for Artpark.(Duh, just found another pic) I was glancing around his website and he does many music posters.
I wonder if they are for sale for Artpark - or a giveaway - or whatever.
And Chris, I cannot get the picture you added to load, is this the one:
