New Album for 2007 announced!
Posted 7/24/06

In a post on Amazon.com that mysteriously appeared and disappeared within seconds last Wednesday, an announcement for a new JHP album was made. Apparently the announcement was posted by mistake and removed before anyone at all noticed except for JHP fan Thomas Pynchon, who was scouting his own announcement made that same day. Pynchon quickly contacted Joe who confirmed that "they were thinking about maybe possibly getting together sometime maybe next spring or summer to possibly try and record a song or two." Pynchon quickly notified this webmaster and submitted a little blurb based on his 5 minute conversation with Joe. The excitement is frankly unbearable!

No guarantee of the accuracy of what you read in this column. But if I didn't hear it, I definately made it up.

7/22/05 - After being dismissed from the Michael Jackson jury for, (in the words of Los Angeles County Judge Frank "The Animal" Fletcher) "crackin' wise" and "in general making distracting noises through his ears", band member Joe Pino revealed his privates to Public Radio personality Corey Flintoff resulting in Pino's arrest and subsequent dismissal (due to a technicality and Pino's rich, velvety voice). After a brief disappearance, his mail is now being forwarded to a Miss Josephine Pina somewhere in Tarzana, British Columbia.

6/12/01 - Chip may be writing the music for the next Abe Vigoda movie, untitled as yet but Jerry Bruckheimer is slated to direct.
