I just noticed that on August 6th The Slip's FB profile pic was updated twice in 2 minutes. Could this reflect the beginnings of a stirring from their long slumber...?

Anyone have anything to report on this front?

Here's a crazy idea. How long is the Slip indebted to Bar/None records? If by chance they signed a 10 year contract, those 10 years since Eisenhower are almost up. Perhaps they are waiting to be done with Bar None before being more active?

All speculation, and more likely that the Brothers are finding more fun and success with the Barr Brothers.

You raise an interesting point. Would the Bar/None deal have required more than 1 album though?

my guess is they would have to put out another album or suffer some payout to the record label for not delivering on their contract or if another label picked them up and payed the buyout
