Hello Hip Fans,
I've been thinking about this a lot and I'd say there's a good bunch of Hip fans in the Southern Ontario area on this board.
I'm willing to bet some of you would be interested in going down to see the hip in the US when the 2006 tour is announced. There are a few cities I know I'd pesonally like to get to in the coming year. Some of them being, Rochester, Detroit, Boston, Cleveland, Pittsburgh and Syracuse.
I know I'm writing this post a little early but what can I say, I'm pumped for the upcoming album and tour.
I kinda want to get a feel for who would be interested in going and if there's enough people going, it would be cool to rent a van or even a bus and all travel together. If there's a couple multiple night shows or cities within a few hours of each other, I'd like to do organize some trips with other hipbasers to have a good ol time.
I had a great time last year on my trip with Shannon W and her friend Nathalie and we met a lot of great hipbasers in DC and Philly and I'd like to do it all over again.

Love the idea, Im all for it. Since things can happen and situations arise, I wont say 100% count me in right now, but when the tour is annouced and it gets closer, I will be very interested. All this tour talk is starting to get to me, I cant wait for this summer, I have a feeling its going to be a good one. :thumb:
Imagine a world before the "beginning was the word.”

The best thing about the Hip in the US is that it’s always a small venue and can get really close. Hip in a club environment
I would say hit the east coast cause if they keep playing the same areas you could run up the coast with the Hip and in one week could catch 4-6 shows with not too much travel. Example, start in DE, then Philly PA, NYC, Hartford CT, Boston MA

Here's hoping The Hip play St. Louis. You can all take a long drive down to the Gateway to the West and we can catch a small, intimate Hip show.

Well, if you any of you get really brave and head South of the Mason Dixon, give me a shout..the Asheville, Myrtle Beach and Atlanta shows last year were great, around 750 people ..max. I'm guessing this year the small town they pick will be is up in the air, Charleston, SC maybe? ahhhhhh Beach...
But I am wondering if they go with Charlotte
