I think I threw my 'hip' out

Synopsis of actual converstation I engaged in with a friend that just returned from a trip to Disney.

"So, how were the Doodlebops?"
"Actually, pretty cool. I have to say, they have just as much energy live as they do on TV. I was pretty impressed. Sold out all four shows by 10AM the day we saw them."
"Did the kid get it?"
"Yeah, she kept saying 'Bop Bop Bop' and stood on my lap and danced the whole time."
"That's cool."
"Any Bus Driver Bob action?"
"No, it was just the three of them, but they did do the bus song."
"Ah, bummer...but cool I guess."
"Can't imagine what it's gonna be like for the Wiggles."
"Wiggles are playing?"
"Yeah, but they're putting them at MGM at the Indiana Jones pavillion."
"Ah, well, if the Doodlebops were selling out, I can only imagine how crazy it will be for the Wiggles."
"Yeah, I know. They were turning people away from the Doodlebops...people were disappointed. Good thing we talked to the cast members the other day and so hubby knew to get there early for the tickets."
"Wow. Heh..."
"Yeah?"
"Remember when we used to get excited about our own music? Uh, what happened?"
"Yeah, I know."
