I have a few issues with thehipclub.com

1. They have to update the site alot more if they want people to come back more than once a wee. Everytime some goes to the site and sees that it has not been update the less likly they will come back again.

2. The site should remember your card number. I hate taking out my card and typing in that number everytime. That will also discourage people even more from visiting the site.

aaa... That felt better

Well I've thought the same thing about thehipclub.com. They need to upgrade quite frequently. I have been checking it every day, but noticed nothing has been upgraded in quite some time. I'm bored with it already, to be completely frank.

I realise the boys are touring now, and perhaps a bit preoccupied, but they need to get some fresh stuff into their website peeps, or people are just going to forget about it!

As for entering in the membership ID number, I agree. Luckily, I have a great mind when it comes to remembering, and after entering it three times, I have it memorized. However, it would be easiest if for the very first time you login and sign up, you have to enter that memberhsip number, but afterwards, perhaps you can make up a user name and password of your own, that way, it'll be easier for people to login.

Anyone else agree with me on that subject??

The user name thing is a good idea, I think thats what the Dave Mattews Band fan club does.

I'm bored with it already, to be completely frank.

I couldn't say it any better myself

yes it isn't very good,

I typed my card number out and saved in the "notebook" so I just cut and paste, but it really doesn't matter because they don't update it.

Maybe if I took the time to find my hip club card, and then type it out the site will be updated :wink:

Sure it can improve, but we need to keep in mind THC is in it's very early stages at the moment. I'm sure it will improve greatly as time goes on.

Remembering the # is a great suggestion. It's a real pain to type it every time.

I also think they can improve the exclusive merchandise. Some of it is just plain ugly.

Live or rare songs should be on TheHipClub.com. Putting "Problem Bears" and "Ultramundane", two great studio songs, on the site does two bad things:

1. Makes us whom bought "IVL" rip MP3s from the album and then burn it again so we can listen to the tracks, and
2. Virtually assures us that those two songs will never be played in concert.

How about a clean version of "Blonde Solid" or "Vegas Strip"?

PS: The site should remember the #. Even this site does. No excuse for lazy programming.

As for the two unreleased songs being played in concert. someone at another discussion group reported that Gord Sinclair said in an interview that the boys are practicing the songs to play them live. He also said that the band was relearning "Another Midnight"

I believe that when the idea for The Hip Club came about, they said that they would be putting live stuff up on the site eventually.

Like I said before, the site is in its very infant stages and will improve with time.

yeah a clean version of blonde solid would be awesome, i honestly bought the Cd to get the card to get tickets from pre-sales. Live tracks arent a big deal cause u know eventually they will be on kazaa or something like that , dealing with the two unreleased tracks which are'nt very good to begin with hopefully arent played live considering the vast amount of other songs that arent being played that should be considering the 20 song set list

Would be great if they played "Another midnight" in Amsterdam....
