Thanks, Don. Interesting article.

I put together a CD years ago of "fun tunes" and sent it to a bunch of Mudcatters. It contained a variety of music genres and one tune was the studio of the Hip tune I linked to above, "NO Is Sinking". I also included other Canucks, such as Bruce Cockburn, Kim Mitchell interspersed with stuff like King Crimson's "Elephant Talk" to a CARA fiddle tune featuring Mudcatter David Oakley... Oaks (see carsmusic.com - them Irish lads are GOOD!). I got comments. I felt compelled to say that The Hip are like U2 on steroids. Seemed appropriately "Canuck". When you quoted "Kickass Canadians", it reminded me of that.

30 years... and still "all for one and one for all"! That's hip in my books!

Thanks for sharing, Don.
