1. The Hipforums announces it first ever fundraiser. After nearly 30 years online, we must ask our members and guests to help support the website. Thanks to years of ongoing financial support of our members, advertisers and volunteer admin staff, we have been able to keep the forums alive.

    Now we must ask for help as available funds have all been used for our Internet server and other fees.

    So please donate any amount to our PayPal account donate@Hipforum.com to keep the site going. If we can get enough for a few months fees, we won't need to nag you again!

    You could also subscribe to the forums and get an upgrade to Supporter or Lifetime Supporter here

    I love Built to Spill. Their guitarist Doug Martsch has some really nice solo stuff out there. You should check that out.

    The BJM material I own is extremely derivative of 66-69 Rolling Stones, but they are very good at what they do, personally I really enjoy their stuff as they've made some pretty cool sixties style psychedelia, nearest contemporary band I can compare them with are the Dandy Warhols
