Every two weeks a member of the Hipbase will post an audio recording to be featured in the Hipbase community. We will then all be required to rock the hell out of the selected audio day-in and day-out for a two week period (or ... also once).
Volume 01 runs from October 21st - November 3rd. Our very first selection has been made by kieffer!
And the show they selected is....

Here is what Hipbaser keiffer had to say about his selection:
I'm excited to listen to this show! If you did not sign up to be part of the selection committee, you can still participate! please feel free to listen to the show, and join the discussion in this thread.Alright,
Happy to have been selected for the inaugural bootleg club. I decided to go with Burlington VT, 1996 - Oct - 06.
This is the second of two nights in Burlington, and the end of a US leg of the tour.
I stumbled upon this boot a few months ago while looking for shows recorded around the same time Live Between Us was captured. I blindly downloaded both Burlington shows without looking at their setlists. This show has since turned into one of my all time favourites and hopefully a great way to kick off this group.
"Tell your friends on the internet that hip chant sucks."
Gord's vocals sound great the entire show, the band is incredibly tight, and the recording is very clear.
Oh, and the setlist, WOW. It is heavy on tracks from TATHH - as this was the tour promoting that album. Beyond having some of my favourite deep cuts from that album (The Apartment Song, Let's Stay Engaged) it has Titanic Terrarium, Cordelia and Hiccups. There is some great stage banter from Gord, and hints of future songs. If that's not enough to entice you, there is also a 20 minute version of At the Hundredth Meridian mixed in the set as well.
Enjoy.
