Covers and Corn dogs \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.\u201d\u00a0\u2015\u00a0J.R.R. Tolkien<\/a>\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The Anthem tour is now in its 11th week \u00a0and Hanson have travelled tens of thousands of miles.<\/p>\n

The live shows have thrilled and delighted new and old fans and reviews have been full of praise for the energy, variety, musical splendour and charm of Hanson music.<\/p>\n

In some of America\u2019s most famous venues, Hanson have dressed as the men in black, played funk in the form of the classic Cissy Strut by The Meters and added The Turtles \u201cHappy Together\u201d to their list of covers.<\/p>\n

\"cropped-FEB_2013_3CG_PROMO-outline.jpg\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The title \u201cAnd God said, \u201cLet there be Hanson\u201d adorned an article last week and reminded the fans of many years, that discovering the essence of this band is\u00a0like a spiritual awakening.<\/p>\n

Whilst many TV interviews have made the obligatory references to their ages, children, and MMMBop, there is a sense that Hanson are respected as elder statesmen on the music scene; that their history and longevity is acknowledged and admired by those that have seen a plethora of bands and artists come and go since the late 90s.<\/p>\n

The walks before each show have stimulated conversation about action in the here and now, the commitment of individuals to take the walk into their own lives as well as raising questions about the shape of the future of this campaign.<\/p>\n

However it seems that one very noticeable component of the Anthem Tour has been the appearance of large amounts of interesting food groups consumed by the band, along with plentiful supplies of Mmmhops \u2013<\/p>\n

Mmmhops Beer has accompanied\u00a0the band on this trip and whilst it was hoped at one stage, that the beer would be available for fans at shows, it seems that complications with licensing in different states has made this trip more about publicity than purchasing \u2013 at least up until now.<\/p>\n

Some of these publicity moments have offered glimpses of gold to fans as they have watched beer pong exploits and chugging contests \u2013 sibling rivalry and plenty of rule breaking.

It is also apparent that Mmmhops is making its way into the sphere of reference of craft beer connoisseurs, as articles are tweeted and retweeted.<\/p>\n

But where do you start with Hanson and examples of the sublime to the ridiculous in eating habits; for to be sure, it is all there.<\/p>\n

From Dr Food, who wrote recipes for the original MOE magazines, via the remarkable appearance on Snick TV in 97, where the Tommy Picklewich sandwich made its appearance,\u00a0http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=BUEtbQNoUIA<\/a>\u00a0–\u00a0 to Hanson\u2019s 2010 Christmas live stream where \u201cmore butter more better\u201d, characterised the lemon cookies – Hanson have revealed that at heart, they are really just guys who love their grub \u2013 and love to share that with a willing audience.<\/p>\n

\"409\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Beware though, for you may never see chocolate in quite the same way again after watching a clip of the \u201cAll This Love Crap\u201d video and if you have never eaten a corn dog, well don\u2019t tell Hanson, or they may introduce you to something bigger than Taylor Hanson\u2019s head but not nearly as tasty.<\/p>\n

And some of Hanson\u2019s best throw away lines involve food.<\/p>\n

The recent \u201cgo big or go home\u201d adage of Taylor\u2019s and Zac\u2019s heart rending plea that, \u201cabout this time in my day I really need a burger\u201d, from their documentary “Strong Enough to Break,” stand as example\u2019s of Hanson philosophy on life and all that is good about it.<\/p>\n

It wouldn’t be a true Hanson and food piece if it didn’t mention bacon and coffee, but I wouldn’t know where to begin with those two giants of the Hanson kitchen.<\/p>\n

There are too many great eating moments in the Hanson blogs and videos over the years, to do \u00a0justice to the masticating habits of the band, but the simple delights of great food, whether it\u2019s a fresh spring roll, a corn dog, burger or breakfast bap (yes they even ate British motorway food and survived it), have been a delicious part of the Hanson story.<\/p>\n

On the Anthem tour, that story has been one of great music, great food moments, great beer to wash it all down with and plenty of what Tolkien described as cheer.<\/p>\n

If food is music for the body and music is food for the soul \u2013 then let\u2019s feast on tour with Hanson, not worry too much about counting the cost or what’s happening with the weather and just enjoy. After all this doesn’t happen every day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
