Left Hip

Hip of course is a relative term but if things remain the way things probably will remain then Gord and his straight-shooting from-the-left-hip zine do indeed meet the highly exacting standards that bp has when it comes to applying the word hip. So today’s hip offering consists of some long, happy rambles that takes us across Canada and beyond. From Montreal, we learn of Gord’s search for his old buddy Rob Viola who dated Cecil of Nerdy Girl all summer! In Saratoga Springs, Gordo tries Snapple. And he likes it! Okay, I like Snapple too, although not without a fair degree of guilt. In Halifax, Gord attends the Pop Explosion, interviews Al Tuck about his new band and goes swimming with Warren. Of course while all this is hip, hip is only really hip when real fleshy hips are showing and hips are hip in ample proportion to Gord’s Get Wet Swimma photo essay of Gord in various wet guises. Hands on his left hip in the hot-tub, Gord shows us what it means to chase the pool all the way to hipster heaven.
