for all those people based in Europe on this list (and for those who just want to help a worthy cause) I recommend emailing <!-- e --><a href="mailto:tth@thehip.com">tth@thehip.com</a><!-- e --> to express our disappointment that Rounder/Zoe are apparently not releasing the new record here (first time since Up To Here for a Hip record!!).

Without a proper release, it will never find its way into record shops, won't be reviewed in magazines and will effect our chances of getting them over here to tour. The HIp's significant international audience deserve easy (and reasonably priced) access to the record!

Send an email and help keep The Hip international!!

thanks!

Can you point me to a site where they ship to Europe. The lowest prices please!

For anybody in Europe looking to buy In Between Evolution, at a reasonable price...here it is

<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?style=MUSIC&pid=6736013&cart=193694542">http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.a ... =193694542</a><!-- m -->

Click on the price to add it to the cart, and then you can change the country where you want it shipped. They will ship pretty much anywhere in the world and the shipping doesn't look too bad... $6.99 anywhere outside US and Canada. I tried France, Netherlands, Great Britain, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom, all were the same.

$12.98 US for the CD is not bad at all. I doubt if you're going to find anything cheaper than that. If you place your order soon, it might even get there soon after the release date if not sooner.

That puts the total at $19.98 for everything. You can convert the cost from there to figure everything out.

I've ordered from them before and it is very good and reliable service.

Hope this helps. Would hate for a certain region to be left out of this one.

It's hard to understand the decision to not release the album in Europe.

You've got to be kidding me!!

The Hip need to come to Europe, they just have to. The CD not being released here is frustrating but not that bad, we can get it through the net if needs be. But no european tour would really suck, how depressing.

Fellow Hipbasers.. say a little prayer for us Europeans :lol:

I'm afraid that no euro release means no euro tour as well. It would make no sense at all that they would not release the album in Europe when they are planning a tour here.

Why aren't The Hip releasing their album and/or touring in Europe?
Anybody know?
Canadian resident here but just curious... cratch:

I have no idea.......maybe IVL wasn't a succes in Europe. As far as touring concerns, they haven't played in Europe with every new album, so that's not really unusual.

i'm afriad i think you're correct. it is strange because their record company (Rounder) release all of their other artists' albums over here. people with less of a following like Grant Lee Philips, They Might Be Giants, Sarah Harmer and others.

we are not talking about a giant promotional campaign, as their following (like many bands who release albums and tour here) is still selctive, but a proper release that at least gets the album out there and into the hands of the music press and fans is all they need.

keep that email campaign going. we should get an answer on this...
