I think Undermind is a great album

Round Room on the other hand I think is the worst album they have put together.  hands down.

Here\'s another fun one: favorite phish side project.

For me, it\'s Trey/Mike with the Benevento/Russo Duo


ive never really heard many of the side projects from pre-hiatus, but i agree that collaboration was a very cool thing

the first big venue TAB summer tour circa 2001 was the bomb. I did a little north east run, camden, great woods, etc and it was an absolute blast every single night. no trey band or phish side project ever came close to that tour in my mind. the lot scene was almost just as good as phish and the shows and the music was new and exciting and very rockin. I got some weird VIP ticket in the lot at great woods and none of the security guards seemed to know what it was but it looked legit so they let me back stage before the show and I chilled with trey and Jen. When show time came they wouldn\'t let me stand on the side of the stage but I got to roam free in the front row pit area and some of friends snuck down and found me and we ate a bunch of euro dollars and raged out to an amazing preformance. hahahha. good times.


also the very first GRAB show stands out in my mind.  It was at bonnaroo, late night....around 2 or 3 am....it was booked as just a duo show but as we showed up (spun cookies) we noticed there was a really electric buzz in the air. then we saw trey\'s rig and figured it out. sure enough it was the a full GRAB show. and they really ripped it!  I saw a bunch of other GRAB shows that year but none really topped that first one in my mind. they were all kinda less experimental and repetitive and less energized after that magical surprise first appearance.

If we are talking about side projects now how come no one has mentioned Oysterhead?

Oysterhead is great.

Why are there so many dave haters here?

I\'m not a DMB hater per se, but he\'s an artist that I actually prefer studio to live.  I saw him in Jersey around the time Crash came out and he bored the hell out of me.  I enjoy jam music for the most part, but when you play the same riff over and over and over for 15 minutes, I want to drill a hole in my head.
The best music is essentially there to provide you something to face the world with - Bruce Springsteen
