So how are you all buying the album? I went to preorder via the Hip's website but shipping for the CD is rather expensive. I'd rather see if Wal-Mart has it in stock on release day, it probably will be around the same price and I won't have to wait for it to arrive.

Walmart is a good option, especially in regards to price. Pretty sure I bought the last two Hip albums there and they were only about $12. There's a London Drugs across the street from my place which carries a lot of vinyl these days along with CDs, so I'll probably just buy both versions there. If they don't have them, I'll go to HMV, or at least Walmart to get the CD.

That being said, I hope this thing leaks super early, hopefully within the next few weeks. All that build up and anticipation from thehip.com, only to find out the album is 2 1/2 months away? That's just mean. As usual, this band never fails to disappoint when it comes to album roll-outs. They just stubbornly refuse to budge from that old-school 90s business model they're stuck in.

Where's the "like" button on this thing?
