Hanson.net Pin Guide

Since the site’s relaunch in 2014, Hanson.net members have had the opportunity to get “pins” – similar to video game achievements, members have the opportunity to “level up” and get exclusive pins on the website based on different actions taken on the website or events attended in real life.  With the 2020 re-relaunch we decided to make a guide of all the pins and how to obtain them.

Please note that the Hanson.net Tech team is still working on pins since the re-relaunch so some pins that should be available may not be able to be obtained at this time.

We are missing 2020 versions of the 2017 Hansonopoly Bronze, Silver and Gold pins. If anyone knows of a profile with these pins, please send them to blog@hansonstage.com so we can get them included.

One Hit Thunder

We are joined once again by Matthew Milligan of the band Wheatus who joins us to discuss the pop sensation that was Hanson and their song MMMBop. Him and Producer Matt are long term Hanson fans but right before this episode was recorded they learned of the terrible career choices the Hanson Brothers made on their socials during 2020 and had a [lot] to process it into a comedy podcast 2 days later.

‘Are we still a band?’: Nick Jonas assures a worried Kevin the family band is still together on ‘SNL’

USA Today

Don’t worry, Kevin Jonas, the Jonas Brothers aren’t going anywhere.

Appearing over the weekend on “Saturday Night Live,” Nick Jonas, who joked his name was short for “Nicholas Jonas Brothers,” served as host and musical guest. Though he was appearing as a solo act, his brother and bandmate Kevin dropped in with a burning question.

“Hey, Nick. Honestly, I am so excited to be here and to support you,” said Kevin, 33. “And also, I gotta ask: Are we good? I see you’re doing a lot of solo stuff. Are we still a band?”

Nick, 28, reassured his eldest brother that they were cool. On Thursday, Nick released a new single as a solo act called “Spaceman” and announced a new album out March 12.

But Kevin still wasn’t entirely convinced: “Are you sure? Because, like, I just bought a house.”

“Kevin, the band is still together. I promise,” Nick replied.

The questions didn’t stop there. Kevin also checked in with Nick to see if “MMMBop” was part of their discography.

“What? No. But I’m glad you’re here,” Nick replied, before prompting Kevin to take his seat. (C’mon Kevin, “MMMBop” was Hanson.)

Nick Jonas hosted and served as musical guest on the Feb. 27 episode, performing "Spaceman" and "This is Heaven."

New Feature: Verified Lyrics

We are working on a new feature in the lyrics section of the site.  If lyrics have come from Hanson’s album notes or Hanson.net, they will have a next to the title to show that they have been verified.  This means they should be accurate.  This also goes for cover songs where lyrics came from official (or Google-ish) sources.  Songs without the check mark are lyrics that we have crowd sourced or transcribed ourselves and while they still may be correct, they have not been verified by the band.  (Some songs still going through the verification process may not have the check mark yet either, as this is a work in progress and we still have a few more CDs and tracks to go through.)

EPISODE NOTES

Host Mark Steele and resident expert Dr. Dave Schneider, M.D., interview musician and recording artist Taylor Hanson. Taylor has spent the last 25 years of his life creating music with his brothers as a member of the superstar band, Hanson. When Taylor isn’t touring and releasing albums, he is working on eradicating hunger within his home state of Oklahoma.
