What charts are you speaking of? Radio, cable TV (Much, MTV), print, electronic media?
The Hip may never top the charts again, but I take heart in the fact that an elite, enlightened, wise and superior group of humans is willing to buy the CDs, purchase the concert tickets, follow the group across long miles, and would imitate barnyard animals (well, I would for sure) to say hi backstage after the show and discuss any and all aspects of life...
I'm not from NF, but a popular phrase out there is "There's two kinds of people. Newfies and them that wish they was." Same applies to Hip fans. As has also been stated, "If you don't like Hank Williams, then you can kiss my ass."
Is there a point here? Silver Jet kicks ass, and I have had the fortune to see and hear it performed live in San Diego, Anaheim and Walkerton ON this summer. Can the jet fly the Hip to #1? They rule either way here - I embrace this work regardless of the opinions of the f*ckle masses.

I'm just saying it'd be nice if the Hip make it to #1 on the charts (any charts, you name it). Its always good when your favorite bands makes it up theres - it'd be motivational for the band and it'd bring some newcomers to hip fandom.
Its not a big deal, simple question really...
