The Tragically Hip wanted us to know they're currently in the process of recording a new studio album with producer Bob Rock. Once completed, they will be out on the road performing select shows in Canada, the USA and Europe this year. I've been itching for a Hip show, so this is great news. A Canada Day show at the Molson Amphitheatre would be perfect.
The Hip have also announced that they've blown away the old Hip Club we all joined back in 2002 in favour of new club that requires a paid membership. "With the paid membership, you will get front-of-the-line opportunities for concert tickets, special audio and visual content, an online and in-depth Q and A with the band, members-only merchandise, and EXCLUSIVE access to "Hip Club Only" special events, shows and other surprises". This sounds a great deal like Pearl Jam's Ten Club. They haven't announced the price yet...
