Dude, that is just sacrilegious.Give your head a shake.
I dont agree with that at all, how is it sacrilegious? Was it sacrilegious to have Kate and Chris touring with them? It might not appeal to you, but whats wrong with jazzing up the sound or adding a new dimension to the songs? After playing NOIS for 20 years, maybe a different sound would be welcomed and a nice change, lets say just for a few shows or one tour, oooh big deal. I saw Blue Rodeo with the added horn section as well and they sounded amazing, the songs took on a whole new life and persona and they came off sounding wonderful live. And I doubt the Hip would do anything like that if it didnt work for them or the fans.
