Anyone else in T.O. here this? This morning on the morning show, Dean confirmed, "most if not all" of the members of The Hip will be taking part in his day of golf, hanging out, having a good time he said. He mentioned before that there will be a band playing, but has not said who as of yet. I doubt it'd be the boys, but that's just my opinion. Unfortunately, tickets are sold out. Maybe some Hipbasers picked one up?

My guess is, it's got something to do with the new management deal they signed? More promotion, etc?

Back to this topic for a moment.. this is what I discovered this morning..
from.. Edge.ca
Dean Blundell's Golfapallooza 2004!
Celebrity's So Far Include: Wade Belak, Nathan Perrott, Rick Jackman, Ian Leggatt (PGA PRO), Alan Frew, Marc Holmes, Gord Depp, Michael Burgess,& More to come Daily...
I don't see a mention of The Hip.. and other mentions too..
Curiously, Have The Tragically Hip in fact been confirmed?
I am thinking of writing to the program director of Q107 to ask if there is not a way they (Q107) play new Tragically Hip.. It's really not fair to Q107 listeners that we are not hearing New Hip..
I have to think how to politely ask :wink:
Cheers! 8)

The same Dean Bundell that was making fun of "Summer is Killing Us" when they played it.
He is a clown

Wade Belak is playing?! They want to put an IRON CLUB in the hands of THAT monster?! Depending on how fast they can run, this may be the last we hear of the Hip!

Yep... heard some details this morning... they said that after the golfing day is done, there's dinner & a show... Lowest of the Low will be opening, then there will be a jam with members of The Hip playing with members of Our Lady Peace. And there's a headliner after that (but unannounced as of yet). Can't imagine it'll be The Hip if their part of this jam.... ticket information will be available next week.
