The Wait Is Almost Over!

Tomorrow night the tour resumes in Fredericton. I imagine that the month off for the boys will have them recharged and roaring out of the gate.

Will we see more cover tracks? Some old gems brought back into the rotation? What are your thoughts for the upcoming tour swing?

Q107’s 500 Greatest Rock Songs Of All Time

Toronto’s Classic Rock station counted down the 500 Greateest Rock Songs Of All Time over the Labour Day Weekend. Here’s where The Hip placed:
104. New Orleans Is Sinking
184. Courage
271. Twist My Arm
282. Little Bones
338. Three Pistols
355. Fifty-Mission Cap
425. Ahead By A Century
491. Blow At High Dough

It’s certainly not the order that I would have predicted.

The complete list can be found here.

Upcoming Shows

After a month off, The Hip are set to hit the road again. Heading east from Kingston, the boys will play a handful of Maritime shows before crossing the Atlantic for EuroHip 2007!

Aside from the EuroHip shows, it looks like most of these shows may go undocumented – as in, no fan recordings. 🙁 If you are attending one of the shows, and plan on recording it, please let us know.
