No Bullshit here, any semi-serious Hip Collector would add this CD to their Coollection :thumb:, I would 8)

are you serious? how come ive never heard of it

- Stephen Dame - 02-16-2005

The only thing BS is the date. It's a 2004 release, not 2005.

It was released in the US as promotional/supplimental support for IBE.

There's nothing new on it, but it is a rare find.

a buddy of mine has this... don't know where he got it but the coolest part is the little box that it comes in... don't know if the ebay item comes in it though...

I picked this CD up in Peterborough on June, 29 along with IBE on my lunch break this past summer. Collector's item, no biggie though. It cost 33 bucks.

It's been taken off Ebay?!?!?!

- Livi - 02-18-2005

What was it? It's gone now.

Here's the email I got from eBay regarding the removal:

Dear Chris,

The following listing:

4701058605 -TRAGICALLY HIP, "Beautiful Things" PROMO CD-2005-Sealed

was removed by eBay because a member of our Verified Right Owner (VeRO) Program notified eBay that the listing potentially infringes its copyright, trademark or other rights. We strongly urge you not to complete this transaction.

Forgive me for the lecture but IMHO, it's not cool to pay for boots anymore. There are hundreds, if not thousands of cool traders that are happy to share their wares. But there's no need to support the grey market of bootleggers making money off the hip's music. Finding great Hip demo's, live shows, etc. has never been easier and if you are perusing this board, no doubt you are internet savvy enough to find and download these gems. End of lecture.

It wasn't a bootleg. It was a promo only CD released to radio stations.

- Cpt. Trips - 02-21-2005

I wanted that cd....I still dont understand why it was taken off?

maybe it was a bootleg of a promo?

- chris - 02-21-2005

It was a Promo only CD - not for resale. That's why it was removed.

I'm not sure if you'll recieve this- I saw the hip in LA in october this year and bought 2 of at least 6 copies(Beautiful things) @ a place called Ameoba Music- I almost shit myself and on the flight home I'd wished I'd bought them all!! Only 9.99 us- I hope this helps. It is nothing special- Just a Mchip way of experiencing them- Great for fans like me! If only hip discs would pay the rent! K
