Hey Born, think of someone calling you last week to ask you for your mailing address. That's who it's from.

And yes, Johnny took off early that night, so that's the one your missing.

"It wasn't West Wing" gave it away. Check the other one, it says "the show was so-so". Ha ha ha ha

Thanks again Tony, for the Canada Post-ing. Stay Hip.

[mrlayance]

whassup with these postcards? I got one without Johnny also...

Gord wrote 'the show was... so-so" I thought he was talking about the barrie dvd i gave to him at the 102.1 studios??

it was addressed to jeffro.....mmmm maybe all the hipclub members who entered the mod club thingy ?....or the ones who didn't win ?

Good marketing... and makes a good story when friends come over.. 8)

TO CLEAR UP THE CONFUSION:

My friend and I went out West for the first 3 club shows. Upon leaving the Edmonton show, there were IBE postcards for the taking. As a souvenir to some of my Hip friends who couldn't make the trip (sorry Todd, get you next time!) I got them autographed at the Calgary after-show and then had them mailed. As I told my friends out West, "I won't be getting anything autographed for myself, just for these guys back East".
Johnny left early, so you guys will have to hit him up for a sig later. I told Gord what I was doing, and asked him to write something along the lines of "too bad you missed the shows, they were great". He asks me "are you trying to make them jealous?" to which I replied "not at all! I'm trying to give them a unique souvenir since they couldn't make it out here". In his own inimitable style, he decided to write his own comments. The first was "It wasn't west wing", a very sly comment with many connotations (comparing live music to prerecorded television, etc etc) and the second was "The show was so-so", a self-deprecating comment if I've ever heard one.
[Jeff, I figured you would appreciate the humour in it. Instead you get all "big-headed" and think Gord personally sent you a postcard because you gave him a dvd. Boy, a guy has a second child and thinks he's king of the world. Chantal did all the work you know!]
Anyway, I'm glad everyone is enjoying their cards. Let's get them scanned and uploaded for all to see!

I figured that was the story. A really, really top notch thing to do. Well done.
