Seeing as though the Hip have been screwed over once again by their American label (Rounder), I was thinking we Hipbasers should start up our own label, sign the band to a contract, and give them the kind promotion in the U.S. that they've always deserved. Anyone up for it?? I'm reading David Geffen's biography right now, and I was thinking we could use it as kind of a blueprint. C'mon, it'll be easy!
:lol:

I'll be Johnny's personal assistant.
I've already filled out the application... It had a lot of explative's in it, and the only thing under "applicant will be expected to" section was:
"Score Me Broads."
I hope he picks me!

:lol: I'll do all the negotiating... i.e. slapping around record-store owners, slapping around MTV, slapping around young American fans who don't get it, slapping around the FCC, slapping around the music-pirates, slapping around other bands that hold the Hip back from #1 and working out the payments to make sure the Hip don't get royally screwed... yeah, I wanna do eveything except that last one....
(what else do you expect from me after my 500TH POST? whoo!)

I was thinking something very similar today. Many other bands have great fan organizations - digital street teams, etc. We should get something going for The Hip. An official fanclub along the lines of DMB or PJ.
Let's make it happen.
