Oh God, no! I go to Breakfast shows to avoid exactly that! We don\'t need another jamband that sounds like all of the other jambands! When the name change came around, I believe the general consensus was, as long as they don\'t sacrifice their music to bring in a bigger crowd, changing a name to bring in a bigger crowd is fine and dandy... So...

Say no to techno!

Ditto to what jocelyn said two posts back - can\'t really comment on RAq though as I only have the set they did with pb earlier this year.

I wish i could hear this RAQ in person because all i have heard from them on the net is sub-par wanta be Phish sounding. I hear tell they are expanding from that but for me I think I\'ll stick w/ having Breakfast as a main course.

Well, I don\'t really know what to say on the subject of Phish\'s end.  This band has been such a big part of my life over the last 11 years it is unbelievable, and I thank my lucky stars that I went pretty heavy this tour.  Dave, like you the final show will equal exactly 100 shows for me also.  It\'s time for all of us to turn a page in our lives and enter the next chapter.  It sure has been fun!!  It\'s time to relax.  steve\'s freind said it all in that little blurb.

as for phish... i don\'t know. i definately missed the boat with phish, i\'ve only seen them once. i kinda had a feeling phish wouldn\'t be around for that much longer. i\'m glad there is the breakfast, and i think they will definately pick up the tourch.

Who cares if they quit, I\'m just pissed that I already sold 12 tickets to the upcoming shows on ebay.  :banghead:   They\'re all gonna quadruple in value now.  

JK

Seriously though, at least they\'re going out on top.  It\'s cool.  They\'ve been on a steady decline since the end of \'98, no doubt about that.  Might as well not let it go too far.  They already had 95% of their best songs by 1994, and nothing really special after Story of the Ghost.  I support their decision.  I\'ll certainly miss going to shows, I still get giddy come mail-order time.  I just consider myself extremely lucky to have been able to see them when I did.  They\'ve been a huge impact on my musical life.  I wonder what song they\'ll end with.  Definitely hitting the festival now...yikes, they might have half a million people show up!

ordered my VT tix yesterday. that was a no-brainer.. looks like i know when i\'ll be taking my vacation..

still hasn\'t really sunk in, and i don\'t think it will for a while.. i\'ve been kicking around a lot of thoughts about the whole thing, going back and forth on how i feel about it..

i always pictured myself \'growing old\' with phish - going to shows well into my 30\'s and whatnot.. part of me wants to call trey a big liar, for telling us they were taking a break after 17 years, and wanted to come back for another 17.. part of me thinks that this has nothing to do with the state of the music - that maybe the whole kuroda/rehab thing has something to do with it.. maybe that was a wake up call. maybe they feel like they can\'t go on because they fear that one of them will end up dead if they keep going the way they\'re going. i don\'t know. none of us do, and we probably never will. all i know is that the band i can probably call my \'favorite\' will cease to exist in a couple months, and that sucks. since 11/26/97, i\'ve seen a lot of the country, made a lot of new friends, and had some of the best times of my life because of these guys, and i\'ll never forget it. thanks, phish. it\'s been fun.

Seriously, this could be way outta hand!  250,000 heads is totally reasonable.  Good thing it\'s only 5 miles from I-91, but it\'ll still suck.  I\'m plotting out ways of parking far away and hiking or walking in...it might take days to get in and out with a car.  My latest idea is to park in Burlington and bike the 65 miles to the show from there.  Should be a beautiful ride.  

What do people think the last song will be?  YEM is the favorite at 3-1, but my money is on Strange Design at 30-1.

another thought...

may trey has a new band, called Al Queda.. perhaps trey is now a terrorist, and he\'s doing this to draw hundreds of thousands of people to one general area, and he\'s gonna blow us all up. end result: we\'re all dead, and it was the last phish show... hmm... :hscratch:
