Slowly but surely all the new Hanson merch is making its way to tour. (Good for me, I guess, since my shows aren’t until mid October! Or maybe bad… too much I’ll want to buy?)
Here we have a photo of the scarf as well as the new guitar picks that are available.
(I believe that middle pick is white, though it looks pink)

23. Hey
After a trip to Africa, the sites and sounds of poverty inspired Hanson, most famously known for their 1997 hit “MMMBop” to use their music as a tool to bring about awareness, action, and hope one shoe-less mile at a time. LeAnn Wallace hit the streets of Minneapolis barefoot today and spoke with the band on making a difference.
“I find hope in what eyes dont see…”

2 shirts added to the HNet store.

Thoughts on the merch? I love the ‘i took the walk’ shirt.. but can’t decide if that heart shirt is cool, or too 1997…
Drummer Zach (sic) Hanson was only 11 when the brothers hit it big.
When Zach Hanson is asked what is the most annoying pop song ever, the Hanson drummer quickly answers that it’s his sibling act’s 1997 ubiquitous single “MMMBop.”
It’s been a decade since he and his brothers experienced the Fab Four-like media frenzy resulting from their Oklahoma-based band’s 10-times platinum 1997 album “Middle of Nowhere,” which featured hit singles “MMMBop,” “Where’s the Love,” “I Will Come to You,” “Weird” and “Thinking of You.” The 22-year-old percussionist talks about what it was like being a punch line for music journalists from coast to coast.
HANSON
8 p.m. Saturday, The Rave, 2401 W. Wisconsin Ave. $25 and $30 at the box office, (414) 342-7283 and through Ticketmaster, (414) 276-4545 and www.ticketmaster.com.
Some groups labor in vain to escape the shadow cast by a huge hit. For Hanson, the effort is to step away from the ray of sunshine that was its first and by far biggest hit, 1997’s “MMMBop.” There are worse things for which to be known.
The sibling trio came out of Tulsa, Okla., when none of its members was old enough to vote. Its major-label debut, “Middle of Nowhere,” had plenty of polish and the aforementioned “MMMBop,” which was crazily catchy.
