Any hip news?
#46

no way never, not anytime soon anyways, this band knows and has known for along time what they got together inspite of what the neyseyers say about their art, they love doing what they do with each other and will continue to do so with their core of family ,and just as I write this Lonely End of the Rink plays on my Whitehorse Station... :jump

I will not give up. My face is set,my gait is fast,my goal is heaven,my road is narrow,my way is rough,my companions are few,my guide is reliable,my mission is clear. I cannot be bought,compromised,detoured,lured away,turned back,diluted or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice,hesitate in the presence of adversity,negotiate at the table of the enemy,ponder at the pool of popularity,or meander in the maze of mediocrity. I will not give up,shut up or slow down....Blessed Be!

Finally some news from one of the band members themselves! It ain't much, but I guess it'll have to do for now. From Paul's Facebook page:

"Hello out there! It's been a while since I've been around here.Thought I would check in to let anyone interested know that I'm doing the Movember thing this month - my link is here in case anyone wants to donate: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://mobro.co/paullanglois">http://mobro.co/paullanglois</a><!-- m -->.
Otherwise, I've been in the studio recording here and there- mostly some of my new stuff and some Campfire Liar's Club songs; also some songs with a girl named Dallas Daisy. Hip are alive and well, and will be getting back in the studio at some point soon....see ya! Paul"

Hear that? That's the sounds of rumours being put to rest. Sweet.

Damn, I wish the Hip would post a real update soon. Paul's all-too-brief Facebook comment was nice and everything, but I need something more substantial. At least give us a couple of new Live From the Vault releases. Something...ANYTHING to help tide us over until the new album is finished. Thankfully some other artists have provided me with plenty of distractions over the last few months (thank you Pearl Jam). But every couple of weeks I seem to come down with a nasty case of Hip withdrawal. I need a fix!

I do not know if it is just too much thinking on my part - or if it is a veiled hint that an announcement is very soon.

I heard they're perfecting a new cloaking device. It seems to be working well.

The Hip are really excited to get north! We're going to hang out and talk with old friends and new. We have a whole new batch of songs we want to play. The moment I first stepped foot round the shores of James Bay, I knew the Hip had to go there - to the birthplace of our country.
