Happy Birthday!
I was in first year Uni when the album came out... had just started.
Decided to rebel and take a secret trip to Montreal to see the Metropolis shows, and hide that from my parents lol
(They wouldn't have approved that their money was going towards a Hip weekend)... but I don't regret it one bit! (And they have since learned about this excursion).
As for World Container.. Holy hell, do you guys remember the uproar when In View came out?! Seems hilarious to me now.
Back in those days, The Hip playing Fiddler's Green was still a running joke, and everyone was convinced it would never happen.
There were daily soundboard songs being posted to The Hip site at that time, and capturing each song with a stream recorder was always a #1 priority of the day for me! (That, and annoying the fuck out of Dave to post a soundboard from my first Hip show...).
Oh how the times have changed, but my Hip love has remained in tact and strong!
...And my parents said I would regret a Hip tattoo in 2 years time.... PFFFT. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
