SICK!
i have a shitbag tendency to listen to things in order, so i just got through the curtain with (12/30) and was pleasantly surprised. other sporadic thoughts: wish fish would let reba jam draw out more in general (esp when trey decides to go for it, for example this version), gone is a sick **** tune, and back on the train tickles my blue balls.

****A cannon was put on stage during the set break, was rolled to the front of the stage and shot fishman into a net with a disco ball. then there were sirens and helicopters, and fishman disappeared and the band left the stage. Then Trey asks a fan to come on stage to play the drums, then asks what her favorite song is and she said fluffhead, so they play it with her trying to play drums, Sarah from Pittsburgh, but its actually fishman in drag, and he steps up, plays the first few kicks wrong which messes with trey, and then kicks into gear and its obvious its fish again LOL
+ Trey says they are taking a break until summer.
++ There was no break between Trey\'s "Thank You" song and Loving Cup

well, if the tour closer in c\'ville was any indication, they\'ll tone it down and just play a good show without any real bustouts. leave that to last night.
of course, i\'m hoping for epic insanity, myself! ;)
just a quick judge on paper, you were SO right dude.

Quote from: Gordo;249704those yearly stats seem bogus though. you cant take the total number of songs now and apply it to past totals.. im sure 240 songs in \'98 would have to be well over 40% during that time... no?
aside, i cant **** wait to listen to last night\'s show... 3 minutes remaining.
TEEEEELAAA!!
Those are all from ZZYZX and as far as the percentage they are insignificant because you only need to look at the number of shows and the number of songs played.

Quote from: zuke583;249699
it\'s the highest number of unique songs they\'ve ever played in a year. which makes sense. they\'ve literally never had as many originals as they have now (they just put out two albums worth of material) and they played a halloween set\'s worth of new songs (which was a double LP itself)
i don\'t know why people are making such a big deal of the quantity of songs...i\'d be much more concerned with the quality myself
I agree. It is a stupid stat and people just like to ****.
1998 being the year they played 240 songs.

well, there are still moments where you want to grab trey by the ears and yell--stash from last night ended decent, but the bass, keys and drums were firing while trey was stuck in a shitty place. couldve set off rockets in miami, but didnt because of the guitar.

I liked this one.
"They can jam better than UM or bisco but they rarely do. The reason they dont is because they dont want to be labeled as some 3rd tier band on the granola train."
:lol: The youtubes of that band in the thread are from 2 years ago and nothing in them suggested that dude even comes close to Tim\'s ability.
Oh and they don\'t jam because they suck at it. I listened to a Frankenstein from just last year on LMA and it was awful.

Fee--played only once
As I get nostalgic about my early days with Phish, these are two tunes that make sets classically Phish imo. Bring \'em back to the rotation! Even if it\'s only once every 5, 6, 7 shows. Just don\'t shelf \'em so dusty. Mikey boy singing about laser beams, Hava Nagila breakdowns, bottles upside the head, the death of Floyd..... briiiing it!

still can\'t believe I never made it in for this show...first and last time I\'ve been to a lot without a ticket, looked for hours before the show and couldn\'t find one (the wipeout show)
Post by: NickNels on December 08, 2009, 10:27:03 am
They are truly capable at this point of destroying anything 2.0 did and can probably soon be back to the level they were playing at during the mid to late 90\'s.
In case there is anyone who doesn\'t know me reading this, I am not a fluffer. I saw 8 or 9 shows this year, which have all been fun, but were nothing groundbreaking...until this week. I think I even commented last week in this thread that they were nothing worth traveling for at this stage in the game. I guess I was wrong. I think 2010 is going to be a year that will rival some of the best Phish years.

Nice article... I have to check out 11/27/98; a lot of bust outs. My personal favorite is still my first shows (12/29/98)... Nothing out of the ordinary, but one of the most solid shows I\'ve heard...
12/29/98
Set 1
Rock and Roll > Funky ****, PYITE, Horn, Ginseng Sullivan, SOAM, Brian and Robert, Guyute, My Soul, Free Bird
Set 2
Free, Limb By Limb, 2001 > Boogie On Reggae Woman, YEM
Encore
Divided Sky

I really liked this article.
My moment--9.23.00. It was my third show, and it\'s funny because the first 2 (7.8.00 & 9.22.00) are much better on paper and in recording review, imo. But that night, everything clicked.
No. 1--I wasn\'t stoned halfway to hell (a common theme at age 16 with crazy strict parents).
No. 2--it was just me and one other friend IN the show.. we got to the lots early with some random friends from high school and there wasn\'t any burden of failed logistics which happens so many times with big groups.
No. 3--Fee. At that point I only owned a few albums, and had literally never even heard the song. For whatever reason, in a weekend of heavy hitters (not to mention 7.8.00\'s ridiculous show that was a first-batch LivePhish release for obvious reasons), Fee\'s base line and crowd sing along chorus was THEE moment that I was hooked. To this day, I picture the tiny lady dancing next to me raising her arms in slow motion reverse-waterfall styly to the "Whooooaaaa ohhh Feeeee" part, exposing pits full of joyous bush that I swear winked at me, every time I hear Junta\'s opener. Makes me smile just thinking about it.
No. 4 (the stereotypical kicker)--I ate shrooms for the first time. It was a small bit, just enough to finally get me passed my amazement with the scene and hone in on the music. I truly felt a part of the electricity that eluded me personally in my previous two efforts.
After 9.23.00, I bought every album, learned every lyric in every song, memorized every note on every track, and got straight up **** lost in my bedroom every night after school.
Sadly, my entire CD collection was stolen just a month later and all I gave a **** about were my Phish discs. Nearly got caught stealing Hoist the following day (dodged a bullet), and within weeks the discography was complete.
On a sidenote, 11.27.98 is easily one of my favorite shows of all time. Vultures on probably got the most airtime of anything I owned during my junior and senior high school years. I remember my dad getting ready for some family get together in our upstairs bathroom, me cranking this show, and him singing Birds Of A Feather all night, laughing at me of course. Second set is just reediculous; seamless, energetic, and fun as ****.

I\'m definitely going to be rocking these videos full screen on my nice speakers OFTEN. Have some nice jam sessions with Phish after I turn in my final two papers on Thursday and m\'lady is at work all day. Niiiiiiiice.
Seriously, thanks again. That takes a lot of work.

And weekapaug, I just want you to know that this review is without a doubt the greatest passage ever penned in the history of the English language. ;)
not sure why you pointed that out to me, I\'ve never had a problem with your writting, I actually enjoy reading these (good picture also in there), but I like the point about how 2 people can see a different show that night. I thought both albany shows were very good, but a co-worker who I talked to on tuesday thought they were terrible. Of course I told him he was nuts, he even left when he heard the first note of YEM on saturday, so it really is true that the same show can be completely different for every person.
Wow, he was so disgusted with the second show that he walked out on YEM? TOUGH! Soooory Trey! Haha. That\'s pretty rough. I think I meant to address Gordo not you. Ah, whatever.

Quote from: NickNels;247826Yeah, I don\'t think PHish is quite back to being (or maybe will never again be) a band worth traveling for. Setlists and versions of songs seem more standard than ground-breaking. If we see more shows with Seven Below > Ghost jamming then I might change my mind, but as of now 2 or 3 shows every few months is fine. MSG run is perfect for me.
I haven\'t listened to the 45 minute seg yet, but I\'ve heard that it was the best jamming of the tour, the worst, and pretty average.
I don\'t think it\'s anything that will stand the test of time in Phishtory, but a definite departure from some of the standard run-throughs they\'ve been doing this year. It gets pretty far out there without getting boring or stale. Just some good improv that has been lacking in \'09.

last night was weird when they started in on sample in a jar all I could think was "worst show since 98 new haven", but then they did pull out some really good stuff to make amends by the end. however, a lot of it was repeats for me and I thought the other versions were better so overall I was left with an average or lesser review. Even the tweezer didn\'t go out that far, they felt like they were just warming up after taking a few days off.
That bad? It looks like a monster on paper - AC/DC, Peaches, Divided, Slave, Tweezer, Harry, Suzy, Antelope? I guess Tweezer keeps following you around...

I thought last night\'s show was very solid for opening night at the Garden. Not a throw away show by any means. As Peaches and PR mentioned Peaches was played, but not nailed...for me it was really more about the novelty than the execution. That being said, after hearing the B\'fast and Phish play it in the same week, I think the B\'fast version was better.
While \'09 has been a fun Phish year, there aren\'t many shows/segments that I really feel the need to listen back to, but that might be changing shortly. After last night I would really like to hear the Ocelot, Wolfman\'s, and Light one more time. Really felt they killed these versions. Light was especially out there...thought it was going into Timer Ho! for a while before the really took the jam for a walk.
I\'m excited for the next two days
upon futher review...the wolfman\'s was more of a standard rockish version that I remember. Still a very good Ocelot by Ocelot standards and Light was good as I remember it. Not quite Seven Below > Ghost, but definitely moving in the right direction.

Just need some dates to surface and it will give a better idea how much this whole excursion can cost.

my boy is doin this and i recommend it..
Oh man, I am SO proud to be announcing this right now, you have no idea...I put over a month of planning into this, and almost saw it go down the tubes for a dumb reason....
BUT I GOT THE CONFIRMATION TODAY!!!
SO HERE IT IS FOLKS (SORRY FOR THE CAPS BUT I AM HYPED RIGHT NOW)
There was a SLIGHT change in the price of the drink special (which never was, and still IS NOT MANDATORY, it\'s just there for those of us who like to drink to get drunk!) and I feel its an even better deal than before!
--------------------------------------------------
Dates: 12/02-12/04 (3 Days) 5:00pm - 7:15pm
Location:
Point Break (12 West 45th St ((btwn 5th and Broadway)), New York, NY, 10028)
The Whole Back Area where the couches and tables are.
$30 Bucks pp per night - Domestic Beer and Well Drinks ($15 if the person shows up after 6:00pm)
-------------------------------------------------
So $30 bucks gets you all the domestic beer and well drinks you can put down!
There will be cocktail waitresses taking drink orders and you can also order for the bar. Food is also served there and it\'s good (wings, burgers, ect)!
Wednesday night we will have the back area of the bar to OURSELVES.. its a a "lounge-ish" set up in the back, but we also will have tables "BEER PONG ANYONE?"
If all goes well, and enough people show up that we need more room, we will probably be bumped up to the 2nd floor on Thursday and Friday (our own PRIVATE floor with our own PRIVATE BAR and music!!!!!)
So try to spread the word and bring your friends...
If this works out, we can do pregame parties for BISCO NYE RUN...which would be awesome since its 2 MINS from Nokia (only about a 5-10 min walk from MSG!!!)
Thanks ya\'ll!!!
Email any further questions to : phishmsgpregame@gmail.com
PS- Unfortunately, the original RSVP (with 5 dollars off) that I had originally proposed was shot down... BUT I will be providing a special gift to all those who had taken the time to RSVP and show up still!
SEE YOU IN 2 M-F\'N DAYS!
-Stevo
yeah dude. you gonna be there thurs or friday?
i really shouldn\'t be listening to phish at all today, it\'s just driving me NUTZO

Oh man, I am SO proud to be announcing this right now, you have no idea...I put over a month of planning into this, and almost saw it go down the tubes for a dumb reason....
BUT I GOT THE CONFIRMATION TODAY!!!
SO HERE IT IS FOLKS (SORRY FOR THE CAPS BUT I AM HYPED RIGHT NOW)
There was a SLIGHT change in the price of the drink special (which never was, and still IS NOT MANDATORY, it\'s just there for those of us who like to drink to get drunk!) and I feel its an even better deal than before!
--------------------------------------------------
Dates: 12/02-12/04 (3 Days) 5:00pm - 7:15pm
Location:
Point Break (12 West 45th St ((btwn 5th and Broadway)), New York, NY, 10028)
The Whole Back Area where the couches and tables are.
$30 Bucks pp per night - Domestic Beer and Well Drinks ($15 if the person shows up after 6:00pm)
-------------------------------------------------
So $30 bucks gets you all the domestic beer and well drinks you can put down!
There will be cocktail waitresses taking drink orders and you can also order for the bar. Food is also served there and it\'s good (wings, burgers, ect)!
Wednesday night we will have the back area of the bar to OURSELVES.. its a a "lounge-ish" set up in the back, but we also will have tables "BEER PONG ANYONE?"
If all goes well, and enough people show up that we need more room, we will probably be bumped up to the 2nd floor on Thursday and Friday (our own PRIVATE floor with our own PRIVATE BAR and music!!!!!)
So try to spread the word and bring your friends...
If this works out, we can do pregame parties for BISCO NYE RUN...which would be awesome since its 2 MINS from Nokia (only about a 5-10 min walk from MSG!!!)
Thanks ya\'ll!!!
Email any further questions to : phishmsgpregame@gmail.com
PS- Unfortunately, the original RSVP (with 5 dollars off) that I had originally proposed was shot down... BUT I will be providing a special gift to all those who had taken the time to RSVP and show up still!
SEE YOU IN 2 M-F\'N DAYS!
-Stevo

i don\'t wanna get my hopes up but i\'ll be in London next semester and that would be too perfect.
it would make sense as i\'ve heard dmb is touring europe around then and seeing as capshaw now manages both bands, it seems like good timing.

i actually find the chart to be quite misleading. a y-axis that goes from 9000 to 11500 seconds? a quick glance might lead one to believe that the longest show was more than twice as long as the shortest. a control chart would be much more useful. if i still had MINITAB, i\'d be all over it, but i don\'t...so i\'m not.
Your quick glance analysis is pointless jibberish. But I suspect jibberish was the intent.

Quote from: SlimPickens;247516Quote from: Yoda;247515These shows sound great... My questions is, does anyone feel like the shows are getting shorter? Only 4 shows so far have made it past the 3 hour mark... I could be wrong, but I always remember the shows avg. 3 hours across the board... Either way, the music is good, so no complaints from my end...
11/19 - 3 hours, 0 minutes, 51 seconds
11/20 - 3 hours, 7 minutes, 43 seconds
11/21 - 2 hours, 44 minutes, 21 seconds

11/27 - 2 hours, 44 minutes, 45 seconds
11/28 - 3 hours, 7 minutes, 7 seconds
11/29 - 3 hours, 3 minutes, 23 seconds
Seem to be trending longer
(yes, I\'m bored at work)
But we\'re talking about a variation of mere minutes... it can be explained by them taking a little extra time in between songs.
I\'m impressed by the chart! Nice!
This data does not show a trend one way or the other. Even if it did, the sample size is too small to mean much. You should chart all the shows from this year, then you would have a meaningful sample, especially of 2009 obviously. I think you\'ll find that there\'s no trend of show lengths getting longer or shorter. I think you\'ll find the show length data to be normally distributed about a mean of approximately 2:56. Actual show length from night to night is random, within 3 standard deviations of the mean, plus or minus.
I agree on all points. I did a quick intraweb scan to see if I could find easily accessible show length data...but I was unsuccessful. I would have loved to do a 20 year graph

As these kind of nights turn out. I just so happened to be seated next to 2 guys from my fraternity that I haven\'t seen in over 10 years. Was a really great time. My friend from Philly made it up and we haven\'t all been together for a show in a really really long time.
I barely remember the show but that is what these types of nights are all about.

Post by: Gfunk on November 26, 2009, 11:09:51 am
\'Twas the night before thanksgiving, when all through the crowd,
Everyone was stirring, and yelling out loud;
The lights were hung from the rafters with care,
In hopes that Phish soon would be there;
I sat next to some jaded vets, all smug with their cred,
While drunkin\' halucinations danced in my head;
With my brand new phish shirt, and my flat brimmed cap,
Had just thrown up on another phan\'s lap,
When out on the crowd there arose such a cheer,
I sprang from my seat and spilled my beer.
Away to the Isle I flew in a hurry,
Had to stop for moment when things got blurry.
The lights went out and they started the show,
They opened with a song I didn\'t know.
Then I thought, "What would make this crazier?"
"Oh that\'s right I brought a green laser!"
I turned it on and with great pride,
Shined it right on the stage, from Page side.
These dudes in eagles shirts turned around,
And they yelled, and they shouted, and everyone frowned;
"Hey, Fucker! Hey, shithead! Hey, you green laser prick!
We\'re going to shove that thing up your ass real quick!"
I ran up the stairs and jumped over a rail!
I tried to get away but eventually failed.
They took my laser and pulled down my pants,
I tried to stop them but didn\'t stand a chance.
And then, in a instant, I could feel them shove,
Like mom taking my temperature, but without the love.
The crowd in the section cheered with glee,
As they pointed, scoffed, and laughed at me.
The dudes who did this, were happy with their work,
They high fived each other; and said "Enough with this jerk",
So after treating my ass like a grommet,
They walked away as Phish played Halley\'s comet.
I heard one of them yelling to all the gazers,
"Have a great show everyone, but to hell with those lasers!"

Have you listened to the Cincy Melt yet dude? It\'s right up your ally, similar to Red Rocks but a little deeper and darker imo. Maybe not darker, I don\'t know. I just remember the first night my buddy said that "Phish was **** with the crowd" during TTE, because he thought they sustained a low and slow valley (set-wise) for too long. During the Melt night 2, deep into the darkness, I said, "THIS is Phish **** with you brahhhhh...." I really didn\'t like the RR version, but seeing this twisted **** live was sick! Anyways, give her a spin!

Judging by what I\'ve heard so far this tour, I think it\'s safe to sat that Phish have hit their stride. Jams sound stronger, band sounds tight, and Trey seems to have located his nuts. Things are only going to get crazier from here on out. Exciting times.
I have heard the same responses from a couple of people. Looking forward to the weekend.

Rock & Roll went deep and definitely experienced some type II ****, slowly winding down and giving way to an awesome Ghost groove. Suzy, 2001, and Coil was a great sequence to end the set. Everything was spot on, or at least felt like it to me, and the building roared all night. Trey gave a little "we never play this tune" speech before Axilla, a proper close to another great weekend with Phish. Already looking forward to next time.....
Bowie & Julius to open... hot damn!

looks like one hell of a show you got gordo, great playing from what ive heard so far
last night was a great time. best seats for a phish show i think ive ever had, not to mention the venue feels smaller than an arena. energy was high in the sea. as with any show, there were peaks and valleys.
first set lulled for awhile, but Chalkdust opener was hot, through Divided it felt ON, but TTE really drained the tub until its outro. Gotta Jiboo went great places, thought it was set 1\'s highlight, and Fluffhead is Fluffhead :thumbsup: .
second set was hot straight through (with the exception of Slave which i am SO over). highlights were Tweezer, Possum, and YEM (kind of an obvious statement). Possum just killed as always, i think ive finally decided its my favorite live tune (along with Antelope). and id have to listen back but either Tweezer or YEM took things to new levels as far as im concerned, i was genuinely surprised by subtle twists and burns.
overall a good show. the music was solid, setlist wasnt terribly standard (which i hope is somewhat remedied tonight), crowd energy was big, and the bathroom lines sucked. off to neverland again...

I\'ve used Stub hub two times before. They are alright. Slightly pricey. However, i prefer ticketkingonline.com. I have gotten really great seats a few times for various things. even have gotten really good rangers tickets from there too.

"custie" is a demeaning term used by dickwad drug dealers to refer to their customers. To call someone who is buying something this to their face is a flat-out insult.
If I\'m spending money on some substance I at least expect to be treated with respect.
True, there are parts of Springfield I\'d rather have a friend with than walk through alone. But I think any city that has a Phish concert, the surrounding couple miles are pretty much full of cops and hippies so you really got nothing to worry about.
ya, I wasn\'t thinking it would be a problem, but never hurts to ask people who might have done it.
and what a stupid word to make up, can\'t see that one making it into websters dictionary
Edit....looks like all local hotels are sold out...anybody have one within walking distance they are thinking of cancelling?
Post by: bdfreetuna on November 19, 2009, 12:10:30 pm
If I\'m spending money on some substance I at least expect to be treated with respect. Fortunately the only time I was called a "custie" was by some Philly nitrous punks (I didn\'t even buy their gas I only went over there to lecture them about their price gouging practices) and probably the only reason I got away with this confrontation unscarred was due to the fact that they had a massive line of people to deal with. I just cut to the start of the line, hopped the fence and stood right next to this guy and started explaining to him that not only are his obnoxious practices ruining a scene, but they are going to find it harder and harder to work shows if they keep jacking prices and carrying on like thug **** with no respect for anybody.
It\'s not like I\'m even opposed to N20, just the way these **** carry out their business. :shrug:

Huh. This question never occured to me. Then again I go hard wherever I go.
Pretty sure if I can get up in Philly NOS Mafia\'s face and tell em they better watch who they\'re callin "custie" and that they\'re not gonna have any custies at all if they keep treating people like **** for $10 watered down garbage gas, and totally get away with it ... I\'m really not too worried about city folk of mixed ethnicities.
Walk like you own the place wherever you go, nobody\'s gonna **** with you.
do that in many places in springfield and you\'ll have a different story which I\'m sure you\'ll agree with being a local, i\'ve seen knives/guns pulled on people during the day down there before
wtf is a "custie"?

Quote from: bezerker;246353ive never done stub hub have you ever been screwed by it ?
YES. AVOID STUBHUB. Almost all other online agencies own their tickets or the rights to them. Yes the prices suck, but if you\'re willing to pay the posted price, you get the tickets, that\'s it. Not so on Stubhub. All Stubhub does is contact the person who owns them to see if they\'re still willing to sell at the price they posted. They do this AFTER you pay and they are SLOW. A few years ago I tried stubhub for something. I bought 2 tickets 3 weeks in advance and am told that tickets are coming in the mail. I make all my other arrangements to be at the event. 4 days before event, I call to ask where the tickets are, they say the seller isn\'t willing to sell at that price anymore, but I can have them for 50% more, and if I don\'t there\'s a 10% cancellation fee. This was unbelievable because A. They never even called me, I had to call them to learn this shortly before the event B. They had all my money the whole time and C. They changed the price after shipping was confirmed and D. They held me hostage by threatening to steal 10% if I didn\'t give them 50% more. Also note that their posted prices are nowhere near the price you pay after fees. Everything gets marked up 25-40% by the time you\'re done. Go on and try it, click all the way through to the last step and that Phish ticket advertised for $80 will be $115...and that\'s assuming they don\'t raise the price again later.
That\'s **** BRUTAL.

For my Phish Fenway tickets I had to use StubHub and at the last minute they said my tickets were no longer available and made me go pick up some nosebleed seats at the Boston Stub Hub office.
Finding StubHub\'s office after getting off the party bus was a ****... I had to ditch the party bus peeps and run off to find this thing. The seats I originally had were pretty decent... the ones I ended up getting made it hard to see or hear the band well at all.
Then again I did get moved out of the rain ;)

Some need to more than others, I guess?
Anyway who else thinks Party Time is pretty damn weak save a couple somewhat enjoyable tracks?? I really hope most of these songs never make it into the rotation. Let Me Lie is nice but I saw that live already. Alaska ... oof

Not to mention, the limited amount of touring makes it more feasible in my mind to do these destination plays does it not??

I guess that was my point in saying the setlists are huge. I just meant that the NE didn\'t have a specific important date on the calendar type event, and it has been a huge year for them (obv)...
no... halloween 96 annd 98 were in warm climates but nye was in the north east... nye was always in mass or nyc before cyprus...

Quote from: Gordo;245482Nice. There should be a petition for "The Fee With" to achieve a pronounced presence on this tour. If only Trey was my bartender before Cincy:
"What could I get you to drink Cheesecake?"
"How about a 22 minute \'sliced nipple\' @ US Bank Arena..."
"What\'s in it?"
"1 part banana tree, 2 parts Milly, and the rest is up to you Big Red. Get creative."
Wowzers. And the award to the biggest weirdo/guy with too much time on his hands goes to.........................Nickycheescake from chicago IL. However it did remind me of our first breakfast show in Ohio when Tim (who was surprised that we drove from chicago to see them in an empty dive bar) asked us what we wanted to hear. We requested mooboo\'s and got a delicious one shot right into our open mouths.
Let it be known that based on my calculations these two nights in ohio are going to be the sleepers. The venue is deceptively intimate. They don\'t get out to Ohio much. I am thinking the possibility of a few rare bust outs are high. The last time they played U.S. Bank they opened the second night with the Sloth.
I can now die feeling successful.
Speaking of "a delicious one shot right into our open mouths," what about that crack bum asking for your shot into his toothless mouth? Remember that? "Damn, you\'re cute too."
Dude, second and third nights of the tour with a day off before the Friday show down. ****\'s gonna be on! Get on the hotel lookout. I looked briefly last night and nothing jumped out at me as cheap/avg. conditions/close to the venue.

It was by far the best festie that they have ever put on. No lines, wooks, clean bathrooms, perfect weather and incredible music. The art installations were amazing, not to mention Kuroda and his palm tree lights. The farmer\'s market was right on and for those of you who enjoy sports, the tv and the games kept some people pretty happy during the day. Not to mention plenty of shaded areas to just chill and hang. You could tell that theyw ere having so much fun on stage and not dragging along. The acoustic set was beyond killer, I was right on the fornt and not a big fan of sitting but whatever, Trey is a jedi and can brain wash us. Mike was hilarious with his comments and again over all you could just see that they were happy to be playing. I hope that do return to that venue, I have been there before and both timesj ust a peaceful mellow vibe, thats the west coast way. Maybe you guys just like to hate cause you are jealous that you werent there. They killed the Stones and having Sharon and the horns behind them was amazing. Also I had some serious knowledge dropped on me to as why they picked that album, maybe it wasnt so much about the music but about what message that album is trying to convey. So keep on **** taking, its people like you, that we dont need around. The boys are back and I am more then happy to have dusted off my dancing shoes...peace and love jerks xoxo

I so was looking forward to meeting up but it just didn\'t happen. There will be a next time.
I can\'t believe you have those glasses. Gavin got so much **** for losing those and the tie. Well, at least they weren\'t lost.
I first heard Exile On Main Street before the Halloween set in our campground. When I heard the rock on it, I wanted to see Phish do the album. I was completely blown away by the band and its take on the album. Couldn\'t have been a better cover chosen.

Or better yet start off with the acoustic set to get dem fingers all nimbled up to shred the frets off the Languedoc for the next 2 hours.
Don\'t get me wrong I love acoustic music but don\'t rip me off on what I came to see. I can go see Iron and Wine or listen to Elliott Smith albums on my own time.

I listened to the acoustic set today and was straight up blown away. That was special no doubt about it. And Trey asking everyone to sit down and then Gordon after mountains in the mist asking if people are sitting cause they want to or have to "Is it peer pressure" thats awesome and hilarious.

2 electric sets + whatever other time they wanna spend unplugged.
Sorry I just want what I paid for ... and that includes electricity, no?
Nah, that\'d be too much like the ABB sets from the late 90\'s when they\'d play 40 minutes electric, then break for a 30 minute acoustic set and then break again for another set of electric + encores...
I know the acoustic thing wouldn\'t be everyone\'s cup of tea, but I still think an acoustic show would be cool... If not, they could copy the dead from the 1980 shows, 1 acoustic + 2 electric sets...

I see your point, I just think it would be an interesting thing to witness. Electric or acoustic, they\'re still amazing at what they do. Plus, I like to hear the differences between how some of the songs are composed electric vs. acoustic. The acoustic versions McGrupp and the Curtain With at F8 were amazing! I\'m not sayin to do it forever, but one tour with that setting... I think would be well worth the $$$.

I\'m listening to the acoustic set. This is the best set of the 6 so far that I\'ve listened to... Starting to think that a limited run of acoustic shows would be something really cool and special...
It would be pretty cool if they did something similar to the way old Trey solo shows... first set acoustic, 2nd electric.

We did neither.
Too long of a line for donuts and too sunny to care.

Exile on Main Street was phenomenal could not have asked for a better cover. Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings were a great bonus and truly made the album cover a studio sounding version.
Few tears in my eyes on Sunday during the acoustic set.
Quite stellar. Still a little m&m\'d.. Perhaps more later when it all comes back to me.
Indeed quite the experience with the West Coast peeps. Could not have asked for a more welcoming and fun crew to be with.
Hope they do it again next year...which is certainly a possibility, maybe not Halloween but a Festie.

Festival 8 was phenomenal. No **** wastoids selling poison, plenty of room, and 8 sets of the BEST **** BAND ON THE PLANET!
Exile was obviously the best choice of the last 8 albums and anyone that doubts that was not there and was not witness to Trey and Page making one of their dreams come true playing that album with the exhilaration and determination to do it right.
As the album rolled out song after song from my memories it became clear that this band is back to playing music for music\'s sake and all the haters can just **** right the **** off.
Phish performed Exile on Main Street with such zeal and professionalism.
Anyone that just dismisses them as pseudo hippie rock is just not listening and is missing out on one of the most relevant Rock bands currently performing.
The great thing was the approach to the music. Playing it for the music\'s sake not for anyone but themselves and how they can serve the music.
Sure they played to us the phans but it was them having fun first and foremost and this band has proven when happy amazing things happen.
Aside from the spectacular performance of a Rock and Roll classic the rest of the sets for me were just stepping stones to my re birth as a Phan.
Sure there were some flubs but the reaction from them and the phans showed a great maturity. Less criticism and more acceptance was the call of the weekend.
I have not heard the band that good and having that much fun since \'93-\'96.
I noticed a lot of children at Phish for the first time really and realized all the kids that jumped on board in the early \'90\'s like myself were having kids and it seemed to mellow out the scene a bit, more should I dare say like the GD scene before Touch.
Could have just been the cool vibe of Cali.
Who knows?
Trey mentioned wanting to do it again and I hope it happens as they have found the PERFECT site.
As a friend of mine said " **** any fan that complains about anything these guys do." They could still be not playing."
Oh yeah and hanging with the Spaceman was **** great! Same hanging with Gabo and it was great to see Lexi. B\'Fam represent.
Yes.

Although I am only three songs deep into the Exile set. I am already digging this ****. High energy the horns sound orgasmic even though I thoroughly dislike the stones I think they made the right choice with this pick. Must of been nuts.

Quote from: Gordo;245141Quote from: Yoda;245116First of all, I could completely disagree more about the White Album cover and that review totally missed the boat and left off Quadrophenia; 10/31/95 has to be one of my top 3 shows if not the top. I know Ellis was looking for me to be negative about this, but there is a positive to them playing EOMS; there will most likely be no more RS covers for halloween...
I don\'t get your comment. So this guy claims he liked the Stones set more than your \'possible all time favorite Phish set\' and you\'re complaining? E... A... D... I\'m excited to listen to this.
My point isn\'t that this wasn\'t a good show, not saying that. What I\'m saying is that if he\'s going to compare this to other cover album shows, it\'s naive to leave the Quadrophenia show off. The White Album was good. Dark Side was a spur of the moment thing, so not much practice, of course it\'s not going to be the best cover album. I\'m not excited to listen to it, but I will so that I can be fair if it is good... Don\'t get all bent out of shape because I think the Stones suck the big one... You probably hate Bruce, so we\'re even...
Bent out of shape? Inter-lack-of-tone-to-statements.... If only you knew how passing my comments are when directed towards you.
So far, these tunes, so good. I likes.

Quote from: Yoda;245116First of all, I could completely disagree more about the White Album cover and that review totally missed the boat and left off Quadrophenia; 10/31/95 has to be one of my top 3 shows if not the top. I know Ellis was looking for me to be negative about this, but there is a positive to them playing EOMS; there will most likely be no more RS covers for halloween...
I don\'t get your comment. So this guy claims he liked the Stones set more than your \'possible all time favorite Phish set\' and you\'re complaining? E... A... D... I\'m excited to listen to this.

Wow I\'m jealous. But happy as **** that this is going on at all.
Some comments about Exile from phishhook:
"wow.... so we actually get another set after this."
"well that was the ****"
"TEN OUT OF **** TEN"
"I dont EVER listen to the halloween sets anymore, but that was AWESOME and I can totally see myself re-listening."
"man, that was just incredible. loved every second of that. "we are the Rolling Stones"
"**** on the ritz!"
"beautiful"
"I can\'t wait to hear the next set. After momentum like that it\'s going to be sick!"
"first off, i\'m not that much into phish...
i do have about 100 shows or so, but really a **** deadhead (and JGB head)...
but i have been REALLY enjoying this festival. i heard the white album and DSOTM covers and was very underwhelmed and unimpressed. haven\'t heard the other covers but this FUCKIN IMPRESSED THE **** out a\'me! how did the other covers compare?"
These comments are great. Apparently set 3 was full of thick sounds, and the Suzy encore (with horns and Sharon vocals) had people cumming all over Indio.
I can\'t wait to hear this ****.

I\'m unable to link it because its on my MAC at home but its out there if you want to see it and you don\'t have to go to PT to see it.
But all is shaping up to confirm the rumors that Jamptopia has stated about the campgrounds and 8 albums left going into the festival.
With the same breathe, it could also be the 100th album theory that is played.
I\'ll take a picture of the map when I am inside the venue later tonight.

oh man! There are many that I could recommend that would blow your mind.
THis is THE Run Like Hell:
http://www.archive.org/details/db1999-10-22.shnf
be careful though...it\'s a 35 minute mind ****.
Here is a safer and tighter version that is a good example:
http://www.archive.org/details/db2002-10-05.shnf
and when you get done listening to the Run Like Hell from this show, listen to the whole thing. Arguably top 3 Disco Biscuits shows of all time. 2nd set really cooks!

we are obviously looking for different things from this song. I love the jammed out versions, as long as the jams are interesting. As many times as they have played it, it sometimes will results in stuff that really doesn\'t go anywhere. The Biscuits have covered this song enough times it practically feels like their own at this point (like phish with Yamar, Rock n Roll, 2001, etc). It really is inconceivable to think Phish could do a better job. I need this song to be jammed out when i hear it.
I prefer the Disco Biscuits version of Run Like Hell to Pink Floyd\'s original.
To each is own... When I think of that era of Floyd, I\'m looking for the crisp Gilmour sound, not an up-beat tempo that I can dance to... Honestly, I\'ve never like Floyd jammed out, even when PB would cover ABITW Pt. 2... But again, to each is own...

http://www.archive.org/details/db2002-10-05.shnf
Not bad if I wanted to hear a 15+ minute jam...
PF version from The Wall - 4:24
PF version from Is There Anybody Out There - 7:05
DB version from link above - roughly 2:30
I\'m not being picky about the song in general, I enjoyed it, but as a cover of a PF song, it blew... You didn\'t know it was Run Like Hell until 7 minutes in and that was only for 1 minutes. Then we got a short DB type jam and then another minute of Run Like Hell. After that, we get 6-1/2 minutes of a jam that doesn\'t sound anything like the song and then 30 seconds of the end of the song...
So that being said, I think Phish would mop the floor with DBs on a version of Run Like Hell...

Phish completely screwed the pooch on this one... The Wall was the perfect album to cover...
Actually I think Kid A would be an amazing cover! It is a little bit of a musical stretch for them, but I think what their live show brings to the stage would help to bridge the gap. I\'ve never seen RadioHead live (which i hear is a great show), but when I hear those songs I can imagine a great light accompanyment. Even if it is just a decent musical effort, I can\'t imagine a better band trying to pull this off...and I think they would have a lot of fun with it.
I would love to hear Trey on National Anthem!
As far as the wall goes...c\'mon
Don\'t need to see them do another Pink Floyd album, plus I would hate to hear Phish\'s version of Run Like Hell which would pale in comparison to what the Biscuits have done with that song.

besides the obvious ELL.
also chicago\'s transit authority is riddled w/ horns, so the dap kings might add to that as well.

Is this Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings thing fact? If so that would be the dopest show ever.
As of now just a rumor. Update on jamtopia:
"Update: Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings @ F8? (October 24th @ 10:30 pm)
Here\'s a rumor that, if true, has been of the better kept secrets of this whole affair.
As posted in this comment, word is Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings will join Phish for the musical costume at Festival 8.
The video at right should give you a good idea of Ms. Jones\'s superb vocals and the Dap-Kings funk / soul musical stylings.
No complaints from this guy if this is legit, which I believe it be. Especially if it means an Exile on Main Street (or Let it Bleed) costume."
Seems a stretch, but that would be **** sick.
And excuse me for my ignorance, but what\'s the connection between Jones & The Daps to Exile and Let It Bleed?
What\'s funny is that their next show listed is at Higher Ground in mid-November. This all seems so **** random.
You\'re excused. Exile has some horns and back-up singers.
I really hope Exile is not the album though out of the rumored last 8 it\'s like 7th of the ones I would want to hear

Q: Is $60 a reasonable amount to pay for an upper deck Albany show ticket?
the 4 tickets i got had a $50 service fee. so 12.50 per ticket + 3.75 handling
so i would say it is a little less then face depending on how they bought them

dave how many people were in front of you in line?
we got there at 1030pm, danno and I were 8th and 9th in line. One guy was there from 4pm onward, and he wasnt even going to the show, just buying tickets for his sister, who now has a kid and cant wait in line anymore but is a huge fan. Very cool crowd there, everyone was friendly, and they made a list based on what order you came, so when the morning came it was easy to get in a single file line for the ticket booths. Times union center is nice cause there is a hige overhang so even if it is raining (was a little), you are 100% dry where we waited. I brough a pad and sleeping bad/pillow/earplugs and wasable to get about 5-6 hours of sleep. No one **** with me while I was sleeping. There were 11 people there for a long time...not until about 6am did other people show up. by the time noon hit there was probably about 100 people in line. the whole thing was very organized, the security told everyone the deal really early in the morning, then they got everyone up to the 8 open booths at like 1155, so when 12 hit you cause make the sale almost immediately. This is quicker than online cause you dont neds to do all the bullshit typing in the passwords, picking seat #s, confirming, loggin in, etc. I had my tickets in literally 30 seconds from when I got up to the booth. The people that were in front of us all got front row seats. def worth being a bum for a night, it was actually pretty fun.

It makes me happy to know that real fans who go the extra mile for tickets get the killer tickets. I used to camp out for tix at the mall frequently in the late 90\'s (before internet sales) and it was a guaranteed way to get good seats to anything. I\'m glad that this system still comes through once in a while...it\'s about as fair as it gets.
On a TOTALLY unrelated topic...(I know it\'s tough to bring up anything besides ticketing right now, BUT)
I saw a theatrical production of Sweeney Todd the musical last night. About halfway through the show it hit me: This whole story is incredibly similar to My Friend My Friend. After the show I put the song on and there is no question: My Friend My Friend is the story of Sweeney Todd packaged into a 5-minute Phish song. Every line of the song is a part of the story, and even the instrumental beginning of the song fits the story perfectly. This is not open to interpretation; it\'s completely obvious that My Friend My Friend is a 5-minute Phish song version of Sweeney Todd. Just thought you might like to know!

comparing radiohead to coldplay is ridiculous. radiohead may not have peaked yet. they\'ve covered more ground, musically, than phish has. \'kid a\' is probably out of phish\'s league...in 2009 anyway

Quote from: bdfreetuna;244171I don\'t know how the hell Phish would pull off playing Radiohead.
Why do they need to be brave? Are people really that brainwashed into thinking Radiohead are anywhere in the same league as Phish, who musically could rip them to shreds? Experimental doesn\'t mean anything if the end product is almost unlistenable. At least the first two albums had some half decent songs on them (even if the vocals sucked). I have tried to see what people see in Radiohead, honestly, but, like Coldplay, who too are also somewhat over-rated, they peaked right at the start and the desire to be different and \'clever\' has meant they do not play to their strengths. To be fair, \'In Rainbows\' was OK in patches and may herald a return to better things after three very so-so albums, but Radiohead should hardly be put up there alongside Floyd, Led Zep, Beatles etc.
Personally I find "The Bends" to be among the best rock albums of the 90s. "OK Computer" ... I mean listen to "Let Down" or "Subterrainian Homesick Alien" or "Airbag"... unlistenable? Man you\'ve got some different taste in music than me I guess! This stuff is genius.
"Kid A" was certainly difficult to digest the first few times I heard it. Now I think it\'s beautiful. Wasn\'t a huge fan of "Amnesiac" or "Hail to the Thief" in comparison... but IMO "In Rainbows" represents total redemption for the band and if they come out with another album that good I\'d have to say they\'ve reached their 2nd peak for sure.
The Coldplay comparisons I think are way off. Coldplay probably wishes they were Radiohead, but their sauce is way too weak. Muse probably wishes they were Radiohead too, but they just don\'t have the soul to even place them in the same tier of great music.
The fact, at least from my perspective as a musician who can rip a bunch of Phish songs, is that both of these bands would have a hell of a hard time trying to play the other band\'s stuff. Johnny Greenwood is nothing to scoff at on guitar. In fact he\'s a total genius and no doubt would show up Trey on a technical level and in terms of diversity. Maybe Greenwood would have a tough time nailing "The Landlady" but basically there\'s no way Trey could even come close to reproducing the guitar on most of "The Bends", "OK Computer", or "In Rainbows".
I\'d actually be shocked and highly impressed if Phish could pull off "Climbing Up the Walls" or "Paranoid Andriod".
"Kid A" is lighter on guitar overall but I still have no idea how Phish could pull that one off without straight up showing the world they can\'t hang with Radiohead when it comes to trying to play Radiohead.
Greenwood is certainly Anastasio\'s equal (actually better from an objective musician\'s point of view).... just a much different sort of music.

I have tried to see what people see in Radiohead, honestly, but, like Coldplay, who too are also somewhat over-rated, they peaked right at the start and the desire to be different and \'clever\' has meant they do not play to their strengths.
comparing radiohead to coldplay is ridiculous. radiohead may not have peaked yet. they\'ve covered more ground, musically, than phish has. \'kid a\' is probably out of phish\'s league...in 2009 anyway

Quote from: bdfreetuna;244171I don\'t know how the hell Phish would pull off playing Radiohead.
Exactly. When you look deeper into it and consider every angle, you realize that it is the most challenging album on the list.
Anyhow, it\'s gonna get axed any second. Phish is one of the bravest bands ever, but they\'re not brave enough to do Kid A. No way.
Why do they need to be brave? Are people really that brainwashed into thinking Radiohead are anywhere in the same league as Phish, who musically could rip them to shreds? Experimental doesn\'t mean anything if the end product is almost unlistenable. At least the first two albums had some half decent songs on them (even if the vocals sucked). I have tried to see what people see in Radiohead, honestly, but, like Coldplay, who too are also somewhat over-rated, they peaked right at the start and the desire to be different and \'clever\' has meant they do not play to their strengths. To be fair, \'In Rainbows\' was OK in patches and may herald a return to better things after three very so-so albums, but Radiohead should hardly be put up there alongside Floyd, Led Zep, Beatles etc.
If Phish are to cover a \'classic\' album, it needs to be a real \'classic\', which at least 95% of the fans are going to know and lap up. It will therefore be something from the 60s to the 80s, which will appeal to the majority of fans who are at least in their mid-30s now and one which will indeed appeal to and have influenced the band, who themselves are in their mid 40s.

Quote from: Yoda;244159... Oh and I love radiohead, but am I the only one that thinks that would bomb if phish attempted kid a?
I definitely agree that it has the highest bomb-potential of any album remaining. Which further proves everything I was just saying. It will challenge Phish. It\'s high-risk high-reward. It\'s the gutsiest call they could make.
Do I actually think it would bomb in the end? No. I trust Phish to pull it off. And I trust the crowd to know that Radiohead is a great band, that great rock albums have been made after the 70\'s. I think the bomb risk is probably 20% if they play this album, which is much higher than any other album on the list, but still the bomb is not likely.
Although, I think that this has the biggest bomb threat, I think that there are some other albums that would bomb because of the vocals alone I think that they can get away with a one-off of these artists, but I don\'t think that they can handle an album of vocals:
Led Zeppelin | Zeppelin I
Metallica | Master Of Puppets
Michael Jackson | Thiller
Nirvana | Nevermind
Rage Agaist The Machine | Evil Empire
I also think that the crowd would be bored as **** if they covered the Miles Davis album with only two tracks on the record...

Alive II just bit the dust...
I\'d be severely dissapointed if it was any of the following albums:
AC/DC | Back In Black
Boston | Boston
Chicago | The Chicago Transit Authority
Devo | Freedom of Choice
Elton John | Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
MGMT | Oracular Spectacular
Minutemen | Double Nickels On The Dime
Modern Lovers | The Modern Lovers
Pixies | Come On Pilgrim
Prince | Purple Rain
Rolling Stones | Exile on Main Street
Rolling Stones | Sticky Fingers
T.Rex | Electric Warrior
Television | Marquee Moon
I couldn\'t agree more. Every one of these would suck as the Halloween set. And most of them are perfectly good if not awesome albums in their own right...but that doesn\'t mean they\'d be good for Phish to cover on Halloween.
I predicted Led Zep IV, hey, it got axed, what can you do? I thought it was a good guess.
I won\'t take any more guesses, but I will just say that of the remaining albums, nothing would be better than Radiohead Kid A. The things Phish could do with that album are beyond imagination.
And in addition to the fact that it would sound incredible, do you know why I love this choice? Because it would challenge Phish. They would really have to extend themselves to do this album justice. Back in Black? Exile on Main Street? Please. Phish could learn these albums in an hour. That doesn\'t make them bad albums, they\'re fine albums, but come on. And even with Zappa...yes, the composition is as challenging as it gets...but Phish is built to play Zappa. They\'re not that far removed from Zappa in general, and Phish is totally capable of learning all the tricky parts. But Radiohead? Radiohead has several things going for them that make them a daunting task, and make Kid A the album most likely to make Trey sit the band down and say "Guys, what the heck are we gonna do with this?"
First, Radiohead challenges Phish\'s greatest weakness: vocal soul. A lot of bands have this quality, but most of them don\'t deliver this in the context of music that would kick ass for Phish. Second, Radiohead still exists, which, in my mind, makes the pick much more controversial. Every album Phish has ever covered was by defunct bands with dead members. It takes a lot more cahones to answer to an existing band. Which leads me to my final point, which is that Radiohead presents an interesting conundrum: If they do it, it has to be spectacular, moreso than any other album on the list. They can\'t justify the set by simply getting all the notes right, like they could with Zappa. They can\'t justify the set by blowing the doors off every song like they could with Led Zep I or AC/DC. They can\'t sneak out the back door by making a mockery out of it like they could with Thriller or KISS. They would have to get it right, and they would have to rock it out, and they would have to make it unique, and they would have to answer to the original artist. These are the goals no matter what album they choose, but I don\'t think any other album demands all 4 of these elements the way Kid A does.
What are the real odds that Kid A happens? The official Wolf line is 1000:1. But that\'s what I would have them do if I had the choice.

Topic: Anatomy of a tour announcement
tbk420
Posted: 10/09/09 12:38PM ET
- Tour announced
- Initial flurry of self\'ings, ranging from tour date predictions to mistaken venues
-Complaints about tour dates, venues, ticket price, and the band itself
-Noob influx, as noted by the second round of self\'ings - multiple orders on same card, etc. General inability to read instructions becomes apparent
- Sporadic conflicts erupt over perceived abuse of the lottery system, coupled with demands that a merit system / old mail order system be put in place
-Noob anxiety escalates as the lottery closes. Within hours, people demand to know when the results will be announced.
-General chaos ensues, as holds appear and disappear from cards, cards are lost, ex-girlfriends cancel cards.
-Results come out. The "Haves" mercilessly taunt the "Have Nots". More fights break out over multiple orders, and scalpers flood the board. Noobs begin to chart StubHub prices.
-Preparation begins for the great TicketMaster rodeo. Practice threads pop up, along with potential backdoor links. Noobs crowing about "scoring on StubHub", and not having to worry about TM.
-Ticketmaster onsale. Server crashes immediately, 23 "**** TM" threads simultaneously appear on PT.
-Three minutes later, all shows sold out. First 15 pages of PT consumed by ticket trade offers. People lick their wounds, exchange TM queue wait times. Back door link folks rejoice, thank Bassman.
-PT slowly devolves back to "normal". Random outbreaks of anger and self\'ings occur as ticket trades go south. Regular Consider It Dan skirmishes.
(REPEAT AS NECESSARY)

I haven\'t heard, but I highly doubt that it\'s as good as Sgt. Peppers... There are few albums that can\'t get to that level...
Indeed. Give it a listen start to finish. IMO it\'s actually a better and much more enjoyable and heady album than anything by the Beatles, but of course Elton John probably would not have charted this territory without their influence.
"Where to Now St. Peter" is old school psychedelic rock at its best! "Burn Down the Mission", "Amoreena", .... ****, you know what. There isn\'t a remotely bad song on this album. There are one or two songs that are very mellow ("Come Down in Time"... beautiful... and "Talking Old Soldiers" ... depressing but deep) but this is some of the best music ever made. The album is sort of a concept album, with a "western" theme and songs referencing the civil war and such.
Here\'s an active bittorrent link for the album:

Fair enough but the ballads on this album are certainly more triumphant than your typical piano ballad much more complex.
Everyone needs a good cry now and then yoda everyone.
I do know that; I\'m not a heartless bastard... I don\'t have whole albums that I listen to, just certain songs:
My Father\'s House - Bruce Springsteen
He\'s Gone - Grateful Dead
In Your Honor - Foo Fighters
He Was A Friend Of Mine - Bob Dylan
Fade Into You - Mazzy Star
Sistinas - Danzig
Cemetary Gates - Pantera
Danny Boy - Harry Connick Jr. version from Memphis Belle
In all honesty, movie\'s hit me worse than songs:
- The end of Return of the Jedi (original version) when the spirits of Yoda and Obi Wan are joined by Anakin Skywalker
- When Burgis Meredith dies in Rocky III and in Grumpier Old Men (he reminds me of my grandfather)
- Big Fish
I may be a prick on here most of the time, but I do have normal human feelings...

Believe me tuna I have a interestingly weird elton obsession and I would have to agree that tumbleweed connection is his best / my favorite. But Funeral for a friend/love lies bleeding is undeniably my favorite Elton Song along with nicky cheescakes papa.
If you have not heard yoda you should. And the reason it is referenced along with sgt. peppers is because of its eclectic nature. Ballad of a well known gun and son of your father are pure heat where as my fathers gun and burn down the mission are some of eltons best ballads in my opinion. Front to back its the ****
I\'ll see if my wife has it... I listened to the snipets of it on bn.com... It\'s not bad, but I have the same problem with a lot of Elton songs as I do with Billy Joel stuff; I get tired really quick of the man and his piano ballads... For me, there\'s not one low point that makes me want to skip to the next song on Sgt. Peppers...

Although there is not chance they will pick this album I would absolutely love to see them do goodbye yellow brick road. I was going to put funeral for a friend/love lies bleeding in the what the breakfast should cover thread. Seeing phish or the breakfast attack this song would be absolutely epic. Personally I would rather here tim tear up that guitar solo its so tasty.
I also feel like goodbye yellow brick road would give a page a chance to twinkle fingers all up in the spotlight. Which would make my butt cheeks tingle.
Interesting request.
I think most of this album sucks though. IMHO Elton John\'s best album by far is Tumbleweed Connection (1970):
Side one
1. "Ballad of a Well-Known Gun" ? 4:59
2. "Come Down in Time" ? 3:25
3. "Country Comfort" ? 5:06
4. "Son of Your Father" ? 3:48
5. "My Father\'s Gun" ? 6:20
Side two
1. "Where to Now St. Peter?" ? 4:11
2. "Love Song" (Lesley Duncan) ? 3:41
3. "Amoreena" ? 5:00
4. "Talking Old Soldiers" ? 4:06
5. "Burn Down the Mission" ? 6:22
Plus Phish has played Amoreena before so this would seem more likely.
But yeah this album is as good as Sgt. Pepper\'s Lonely Hearts Club Band.... if y\'ain\'t herd!

Yeah just a weak post all around Yodiddly. You think, you think, they would have to... huh? Lameness.
Don\'t forget about Crosseyed ellis. I personally love the Heads set, and have probably listened to it more than the other three Halloween sets.
I also recall Phish nailing Dark Side of the Moon straight through only 2 days after their sick Velvet cover. Pretty sure they just played it without "HUGE" theatrics and **** pwn3d it with their goddamn fingertips.
Yeah, jump on the band wagon and trash my posts... I may be lame in your eyes, but I speak the way I feel...
I\'m glad you enjoyed the Talking Heads set, it bored me to death...
Phish did Dark Side justice, but take another listen, there were flubs and things that could have been ironed out if that had been the album they covered for Halloween.... There was no huge theatrics, but there was not large stage show for the Dark Side Tour as there was with The Wall... When PF performed The Wall, that is the only music they played. When PF played Dark Side, it was always in the middle of songs from either Meddle, Obscured By Clouds or Wish You Were Here... And it may not be the truth, but I always felt that Phish played Dark Side two days after Halloween because the Velvet set didn\'t meet their expectations...

something about this comment really bothered me on so many levels. first how could you saw the latter two halloween shows sucked?? The Heads one was ok, but i mean the velvet underground performance was so **** good, theres a reason they still play those songs and basically nothing from the other three. To me, that was their best halloween performance.
Didn\'t mean for the post to "bother" you, but I feel the way I feel. I don\'t like the Talking Heads in the least bit, so that cover album was down the drain for me when it started. I actually like Velvet Underground, but I have the same problem with it as I did with the THs; in my opinion, when you\'re covering the album, they should play it like it is on the album, like they did with The White Album and Quadrophenia. For these two shows, they jammed out all the songs because they knew that both of those albums were only 40 minutes long and that would be 20+ minutes too short for a set and not have people complaigning.
Quote from: ellis-d;243735
Secondly, since when has phish been worried about giant undertakings?? They are obviously gonna do something special so to think that the wall is too much for them is nuts. OH, and does it HAVE to be the original wall??? **** NO, if they do it, they\'ll do it their way just like they always have. there are no rules that they must abide by.
I\'m only expressing my feelings. I\'m only going to get to hear the audio since I\'m not going, but I do think that having seen video of both Pink Floyd\'s The Wall and Roger Water\'s The Wall performances, there would be something lacking if they didn\'t reconstruct the wall... You can get away with not doing what the original band did on 99.9% of all other bands/albums/tours, but The Wall was so unique that "to me", there\'d be something lacking if they didn\'t follow suit...

Okay, so looking at what\'s left on the list, here\'s my thoughts:
What I\'d want to hear - Born To Run
Good possibility - Thriller
I would bet my money on - The Wall or The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway
The first two halloween cover shows were double albums. In my opinion, the later two choices sucked. I think that they\'re going to go back a double album (excluding Alive II because it\'s a live best-of). I think that they\'ll do Genesis because if they did The Wall, they would have to reconstruct the live show that PF did in 1980 and that would be a beast in and of itself...

I also said the wall first off, but looking at the festival schedule it doesn\'t make sense.
Phish always does the album as a complete set. The wall stage setup requires placing the final block in the wall during "goodbye cruel world", the final song on disc 1 and a setbreak. Then set 2 starts with the 2nd "in the flesh?" (not to be confused with "in the flesh") and they play several songs behind the wall before completely tearing it down. To perform the show properly would require purchasing and shipping the stage setup from roger waters/pf, shipping it from england and training a massive staff to run it. Plus, you\'d have to remove all the wall blocks from the front of the stage before set 3. with that many people, someone would leak they were doing it. I really think the wall would be cool, but I don\'t think it will happen.
Springsteen with bruce on stage is my current call.
Do they need the set to play the music?
Could they build their own set?
Part of that set is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame... at least it was in 2008 and it didn\'t look like it was goin anywhere for awhile where they had it set up.

- Out of the 60 albums left, only 10 of them track in at an hour or more. With the band scheduling 2-1/2 hours for the from start of the 2nd set to the start of the 3rd set, I think that it would be a let down if they chose a 30-40 minute album to cover.
That being said, here are my thoughts on the albums that are over 1 hour:
Hello Nasty - The novelty of covering the beasties is good for a song, but I think that it would get old really quick if it dragged on for more than an hour.
The Chicago Transit Authority - I actually like the sappy chicago, but the only song on this album I\'ve heard of is their cover of I\'m A Man. I think that this would be a poor choice to cover.
Goodbye Yellow Brick Road - Nice album, but I think that there are too many songs that would lend itself to a **** break that the porto potties would be overflowing with Elton induced **** and vomit.
The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway - This just feels to me like something they would do. It\'s a solid 1-1/2 hours; it tells a story and doesn\'t need to include a break.
Electric Ladyland - I\'m wouldn\'t complaign if this was the final album.
Alive II - I like KISS and as much as it would be funny to see them come out in full make-up and costume, I can\'t see them covering a live album for this set.
Double Nickels On The Dime - Never heard the album or the band, so I\'m guessing that might be the case for a portion of the fans going. Maybe that\'s Phish\'s reasoning, but I think it would be a major let down.
The Wall - This would be AWESOME, but I think that it would be too much to plan logistically, unless they had a second stage built and they performed the first half with the stage completely brick free and the second half behind an already constructed wall.
Exile On Main Street - God, I hope this is the album. I don\'t like the RS and might skip listening to the set completely if that\'s the case.
London Calling - Same as Electric Ladyland.
I\'m sure that I\'ll be completely wrong when all the chips are laid down, but we\'ll just have to see....

Yup....phish.com
Is there a website that is keeping track of all the axes in a single text-based list?
Seriously, there are way too many to scroll through, not to mention i don\'t spend my time memorizing record covers.

Quote from: Vassillios;242840van halen will not be played. trey doesn\'t fingertap
This makes me wonder.... why? And also... thinking back, have I heard Trey fingertap even a little? I can\'t really think of an incident, like, ever....
Does he consider it a hack technique or what? I mean it\'s certainly not beyond Trey\'s capabilities to do. Timmy P rages it tastefully and creatively within the context of a jam.
Guess I\'m sort of glad though. By intentionally seemingly never fingertapping Trey has developed some other pretty original ways to run his own flavor of fast-lick style runs. The fact that some of Trey\'s jams are so damn intense without even using the "fingertap option" says a lot for the guy.
Or else maybe he just really got sick of listening to hair bands finger tap every single note and decided that was the wackness.
i would love to hear trey\'s thoughts on fingertapping.
i think when he was discovering his style he was more concerned about tone (amps, effects, etc.) and it shows with his unique sound and crazy ability to sustain a note for hours with ease.

Quote from: Wolfman;242757With 84 albums remaining at the time of this post, I\'ll go with Led Zep IV.
And if they really want to kill it, they\'ll trot out Robert Plant for vocals on Stairway.
Here\'s another far out scenario... they do Thriller (seeing that it is Halloween, they are in Southern California and it would be a great tribute to MJ), with the addition of the TAB horns in support. Here\'s where it gets a bit twisted, a) they attempt to sing the songs themselves and have it mediocre but funny b) they special guest Justin Timberlake to sing all the songs who has the vocal range to make it sound good... I have absolutely no evidence or rumors or anything to back this up... I just thought it would be cool if it played out that way.
Thriller would be incredible given the songs and MJ\'s recent passing. My only hesitation would be that, as you keenly pointed out, the whole thing would have to be tongue-in-cheek. I think that\'s too much horsing around in one shot for a band this good. Sure we all love when they play I Kissed A Girl or when Fishman gets on the vaccum, but you can\'t do that for a whole set.
I\'m going to say that the deciding factor will be that you cannot build a better band to cover Led Zeppelin than Phish. And one more thing, it occurred to me after I made my prediction that IV has Goin to California. It\'s perfect.

see above statement
All I\'m saying is that since the first NYE show back in \'89, either the yearly festival or NYE show was held in the North East... This is the first time in 15 years that that isn\'t happening... So let\'s agree to disagree on this item...

I don\'t think it was ever thought to be. I\'ve heard Miami since like Hampton in March. Sometimes you can lost in the rumors and misdirections.
I\'m not talking about it in the "rumor" sense, but whatever happened to it being in MSG generally speaking... I guess that I don\'t get the Miami thing... With a large portion of your audience in the Northeast, it would make sense to have NYE in Boston or NYC after having a large festival out on the West Coast... This is just cannon fodder, no real motivation behind it...
Indio is the result of the disastrous Coventry and the horrid traffic at festivals. And who can blame the band for wanting to be in warm weather in December? Part of Phish\'s experience is traveling to see the band.
Traveling to NYC or Boston is enough for me, I don\'t need to go down to Miami or CA to have an experience...
I can travel to Boston or NYC anytime. Have done it countless times before. Going to Miami is a special treat. For me, I would rather see the band in all the places I haven\'t seen them or seen them once/twice. Different strokes for different folks. I also have no family responsibilities.
Going to Miami makes NYE a little more special.

My browser won\'t show the list, but my narrowed down guesses are:
Beach Boys - Pet Sounds
Frank Zappa - Hot Rats
Michael Jackson - Thriller
Queen - A Night At The Opera
Neil Young - Tonight\'s the Night
Fleetwood Mac - Rumors
Allman Brothers - eat a Peach
Boston
Bruce Springsteen - Born to Run
Blind Faith
Yes - the Yes Album
Kiss - Alive II
Black Sabbath - Paranoid
David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust
Bob Dylan - Blood on the Tracks
Beatles - Rubber soul
Rush - Moving Pictures
Jimi Hendrix - Electric Ladyland
Led Zeppelin IV
the Who - Who\'s Next
Zappa - Apostrophe
My preferences are bolded, but all the rumors that I\'ve heard lean towards Boston...
I\'m taking Bruce out of the equation for a couple of reasons...
1. Bruce is doing shows now that are playing complete albums, which include Born To Run, Darkness and Born In The USA.
2. I\'m not sure who in the band could really handle the vocals. That album had a low, deep, growling feel to it and really none of the other cover albums they\'ve done have been in that range vocally.
3. They just sat in with Bruce at Bonnaroo; that would fit all too nicely.
At this point, I\'d like to see them play Pet Sounds, but I\'m thinking that wouldn\'t set the right mood for Phans...

Nope... I\'m a loser... I\'m all about the kids right now... My oldest would would be 22 months old and my youngest would be all of 3 months old... As epic as the show would be, I can\'t see being away for what would essentially be a minimum of 5 days (3 - show / 2 - travel)... Not to mention spending all the money that I don\'t have...

Tom petty was killed by an axe already. There is some sick **** there, and some obvious jokes. I personally hope they play the micheal mcdonald album since i wont be there.

I hear you. I guess you could go back to your camp site for an hour, but it seems like an awful long time to me. The time between set 2 and set 3 makes more sense to me...

as for \'modern\' classical, if you haven\'t checked out Arnold Schoenberg yet, you definitely should! crazy stuff right there. i mean, dude was a teacher of john cage\'s, so you know he\'s a little nutty. i also used to live above a music professor who had studied under him. she was the most punk rock yet snobby old lady i\'ve ever met!!

Rumor has it 2 more orchestral Trey shows are in the works for Philly & Boston possibly, no confirmed dates yet though...
Then I will def. be at the boston one.
I have slowly come to the conclusion that orchestrated music really is the place to go with pushing "natrual" music. Obviously you can do more with computers and machines, but that\'s totally different. As such, I am always seeking out new and different orchestral arrangements and/or composuers who make them.
I ripped on John Williams earlier not because I don\'t like his musc - I do. I think he is great at making music that everyone can ejoy and relate to, and there is beauty, art, and joy in that. However I don\'t consider what he does "pioneering" in any way. I haven\'t listen to trey\'s orchestral peices (just started the NY show - thanks, jking!) so I can\'t really judge.

Ive always had a connection with the orchestral stuff, and this Carnegie thing is the culmination of 5 or 6 years of Trey working **** out and getting it RIGHT. He said he wants to turn this thing into a touring act, if that happens **** forget about it.
Is that a good "**** forget about it" or a bad one?
Are there any good sources for the show saturday?
Are there any plans (phish) to release it?

I love dark Phish. I can\'t stand this Melt. That\'s all. It sounds fUcT. Just because it was a deviation from the tour norm does not make it a positive stand out for me. I think it sucks. However, the 4-16-92 Melt is thaaa focking HEAT!! I agree with you there Tuna Melt.

1992-04-16 Anaconda Theater: (this Melt features probably the most savage Trey ever. Like WTF style. This whole show and the next 3 nights are *must haves* for any Phish fan who wants to be ser at all... the Mikes Groove from 1992-04-19 is also the most intense Weekapaug ever... Cactus pwns the **** out of this)
1994-06-11 Red Rocks: (sick sick version and then towards the end Trey\'s guitar sounds like he\'s straight up droppin bombs out of an airplane)
Start there. I don\'t remember a lot of the other dates exactly off the top of my head.
Oh yeah and if you like teh darkness like me you\'ll probably **** love these Stash\'s:
1992-04-17 Warfield Theater: (like I said grab all of 1992-04-16, 17, 18, & 19)
1994-05-19 Hult Center: It\'s one of the best Stash ever, \'nuff said. Get the show its fire.
1994-06-22 aka Live Phish 10: Its a Live Phish release for a damn good reason.

Post by: Lexington on September 14, 2009, 11:35:07 am
well, i have some good and bad things to say. Sugar Shack is imo the best song on the album. I like phish for many things, two of them being syncopated polyrythmic sections and interesting guitar melodies. sugar shack is the only example of these qualities on Joy, and the vocal harmonies are badass. thanks mike.
i really think that (for the most part) the songs on this album suck ass. so does alaska.
stealing time is kinda cool, but "got a clif bar and a cold green tea"? seriously, Tom, you need to reevaluate your ****. in general the lyrics and song structures seem uninspired and way too try-hard serious. than theres TTE. interesting song structure, just kind of boring. actually one of the better songs imo. I\'ve been around would have potential if it had more than one verse, although i see some cool type 1 jams coming from it. twnty years later has a cool feel to it, but only at the end. Ocelot, catchy as hell but a little to Dear Prudence-ey (won\'t you come out to play? get real).
after all this, i am still listening because i know that eventually more of the songs will grow on me. i don\'t understand how people can hate on sugar shack tho. its the only song that sounds like phish, not the Trey band (which sucks).
wow, i feel like an ****.

Red Rocks 2009-07-31 is one of my top 5 Melts. The slow layered bend-downs, preceeded by an eerie ringing loop with soulfully played descending part-scales, and soon accompanied by matching vocals is unlike any other Phish jam.
I straight up can\'t make it through this Melt again. Honestly, it makes me want to poop painfully, squeeze out a real tear-jerker. I remember the first time I listened to it I thought it was brutal, and after a 2nd go I feel awkward about everything. Fuckin hate it.

Don\'t know if I would compare the song writing of Phish to that of The Beatles. The songs are good, but they\'re not The Beatles...
Ya I would like to clarify that I was agreeing with the point that what separates phish from other progressive acts such as yes and king crimson is their ability to write the more simple popish song from time to time. But I guess when you think about it the beatles made pop music (from rubber soul on) that is certainly much more than pop music. Much in part to more difficult instrumentation than pop music would suggest as well as being weirder(or on drugs) than pop music would suggest. So although I am not trying to compare phish is anywhere near the beatles if one was trying to make a case for how some of phish\'s "popier" songs were beatlesque that is the argument I would make.

I completely understand where you\'re coming from tuna. It has been been my mission, since March, to not be over critical and enjoy what the band has to offer, as long as they are not **** things up. There is a serious effort going into their music right now, and that is the foundation of greatness. They are old men now, and probably don\'t have the fire in their bellies the way they did in 94 when things really took off. But their approach to creativity and musicality is better than its been in over ten years, and the five shows i went to were all fantastic(minus bill kreutzman.) Even though they aren\'t the progressive monsters they once were, they are writing great songs ala the Beatles and the Who, and honestly to me it doesn\'t get much better. I love the craziness, but when it comes to Phish, there\'s so much more. Listen to bands like Yes and King Krimson that write similarly progressive songs and it doesn\'t hold a candle, you know why? Cause Phish has songs like If I Could, Character Zero, Theme, all that stuff that is simple, but is also so sick. Those are three completely different examples but all equally awesome. Diversity in greatness. THAT IS PHISH
Read this last post gabo, you know im the man with a crazy brain that cant say anything short, not to mention ive drank 2 bottles of wine in the last few hours and feel fantastic
The first time I read this post I laughed a little at the whole "if i could, character zero, theme" part. After giving it a second drunken read I understand and completely agree. Well said.
Also I have been on team sugar shack all the way since page 231.:bansplit::wtfban::bansplit:

I almost flew out for that, but alas i will have to wait a bit longer to experience that greatness.
PS: only Yoda would hate a song called party time. Its fun, leave it be.
Ellis - I\'ll leave Party Time alone and hope that it\'s only broken out once a tour. But I\'ll do a little swapping on Joy:
1. Scrap sugar shack for Let Me Lie
2. Scrap TTE for Alaska
I\'m sure I\'ll get **** for it, but I really enjoy the new album, but it comes to a screaching halt at TTE and I can\'t even enjoy 20 Years Later...
Post by: peaches626 on September 10, 2009, 02:37:14 am
BDTNL- pretty good. Better enjoying it on disk than previously seeing it live. (the jam after it at spac not included) the chorus is catchy and i caught myself singin it at work. go ahead and put me in the guilty pleasure thread...
STFTFP- average. not bad but i think this songs full potential is unrealized thus far both on disk and live.
Joy- I dig this tune a little bit and i thought it came out well on the album. something about it makes me feel.... happy
sugar shack- heard this song at camden and thought it was underwhelming. I love it on the album and now can\'t wait to hear it again live, i think it would be a sweet opener for any set. its unique, a little quirky, and a little groovy. woulda fit perfect on rift or nectar, imho
Ocelot- solid tune both live and on the album, but nothing mindblowing... i\'d call it a 2nd cousin to wolfmans brother or 46 days. was that a flub i heard? i\'ve been hearin the debates for at least a week now lol... it sounds a little funny but this band is always funny. doesnt bother me either way
Kill devil falls- i say meh. i enjoyed it enough at the alpine show as a part of the set, but mostly this song doesnt do much for me- live or studio
Light- i wish the opening part was longer, that section is so cool but it seems like some random thing thats not even part of the song? the rest of the tune is cool, but i think this is another song that is gonna be great live but doesnt hit its mark on the album
I been around- it makes me smile
time turns elastic- Its nice to see trey write a big piece to wrap your head around again, and i think they did a great job recording it.... unfortunately it hasnt really blown my hair back yet. eschers etchings I-V is way better than this, and i havent even heard V yet...
20 yrs later- I really really like this song a lot. it sounds different than most other phish songs.... sorta reminds me of led zepplin or something. I think the album version does it justice, and i loved it at spac... and it\'ll only get better with time
Joy (album)- Letter Grade- B. solid comeback album. not an instant classic, but I like a lot of the songs. I think BDTNL, Joy, Sugar Shack, and 20 years later sound better than i expected on the album after hearing the songs in concert first... Cant wait to hear Party Time... Go Phish

Blondie I got no hard feelings but you sure try to be a pain in my ass on the internets. Gives me something to do though so in a way I appreciate it.
I use the term pop music because I\'ve been hearing "Backwards Down the Number Line" on the radio a bit lately. And they play "Gotta Jibboo" too and occasionally "The Connection". I never called Phish a pop band or a freakin boy band... lol... seriously.... but "Joy" is by far their most pop/radio/mainstream friendly album yet.
Not saying that\'s inherently a bad thing I just happen to prefer the classics. Early 90\'s Phish is your heart and soul & you were there. Right on. It\'s my heart and soul too if you saw my Phish collection you\'d be like holy ****. I play guitar because of Trey. I also happen to be a pretty insane guitar player -- not that its something I try to bring up on a Breakfast board full of Phish fans -- but anyway I play mad Phish and there is some **** that I simply can\'t play and I really doubt anyone can... and I\'m not talking about tone or emulating another guitar players emotions... I mean like some of that **** from 91-95 when Trey was totally on fire and the guitar sounds like bombs getting dropped out of an airplane or some ****. There\'s no note on my fretboards or anyone else\'s I\'ve seen that does that. That aint no effects pedal either. That\'s the rawest most **** improvisational guitar I\'ve ever heard.
So talk **** all you want and I\'ll talk **** back if that\'s how you wanna **** with the internets, but regardless.
Respect yo

everyone needs to relax. These are happy days in the phishdom, I agree with bdfree, sugar shack is my least fav of the new tunes, wish windy city made it on joy instead, BUT, i love whats happening with this band right now. There is so much soul in what they are doing, and to me that is much more powerful than thousands of 64th notes. Dont get me wrong i love the rage, obviously. There is plenty of room for everything. Do what i do, listen to a show from this tour, then listen to one from 94, and go back and forth. The differences be them great, is what is really powerful about this band. They can be so diverse and so awesome and just really the greatest thing thats happened musically in my life
how long did it take you to jot all that down ? do your quadruple read all your posts so you sound as bad ass as possible ? at least let me lie didnt make it that songs gayer than fishing

Red Rocks 2009-07-31 is one of my top 5 Melts.
you should\'ve been there, it was unbelievably, incredibly insane. huge rain/wind storm came in and the guys were ripping it up and everyone was eating it up. there was no shelter from the whipping rain and from phish. this is where i started to lose my mind that night and then completely lost it during crosseyed and painless in set 2. it was quite magical (in a completely weird and **** up way)! i would like to add that after this night, i felt like the "david after dentist" youtube video.

Red Rocks 2009-07-31 is one of my top 5 Melts. The slow layered bend-downs, preceeded by an eerie ringing loop with soulfully played descending part-scales, and soon accompanied by matching vocals is unlike any other Phish jam.
It\'s definitely not all about the 64th notes. But it sure is nice to hear Trey max it out once in a while isn\'t it? April 1998 is the last time I\'ve really heard Trey bring the full heat with the rest of the band locked in. Probably had some strong amphetamines for that run and was layin low on the opiates. I mean let\'s get real, dudes in Phish always did drugs. And it\'s not like they started doing drugs in mid-1998, it\'s the harder stuff that went from recreational / experimental use towards straight up addiction. You might be able to play soulful guitar or trippy guitar or even creative guitar while you\'re nodding out but there\'s no fuckin way the heat is gonna get brought if you\'re mind is running in slow motion. Trey stopped practicing, stopped giving a **** if it was really that good anymore, and couldn\'t wait for the set to end so he could go freebase some coke.
So the best thing for Phish right now as I see it.... since Page Mike and Fishman apparently never got quite as deep as Trey, or if they did at least it didn\'t affect their musical skills as much.... is for Trey to at least be able to play the **** he used to. No way do I expect or think Phish will only be good if they can recreate 1994-11-25 Run Like An Antelope in 2009. But it\'s not like Trey\'s got arthritis. Anyway towards the end of the tour I heard some pretty sick licks and I could tell he\'s on a mission like he probably hasn\'t been since the mid 90\'s once again.
Anyway just because I\'m not drooling over the new album or calling most of the Summer 2009 shows great Phish shows (a few definitely were but I wouldn\'t say even the best one, which IMO was a toss-up between Hartford and SPAC, even came close to their all-time greatest shows) doesn\'t mean I don\'t understand the band is in a really transitional phase. The fact that they got for the most part progressively better as the tour went on and left on a pretty high note makes me think Phish is about to reach another era of greatness.
92-95 ... Fall 97 - Spring 98 ... and maybe 2010 onward? who knows
I\'m sure as hell not hating on Phish. But it\'s their own fault for having been so insanely excellent and then pretty much dropping the ball. I\'m grabbing all the tickets I can from now on and I hope they put a little more creative effort into their next album after Joy (maybe they should drink some mushroom tea again...) but there\'s no doubt Phish is about to rip it up and melt faces on a regular basis again.

100% of your posts are bitchy and useless. Are you capable of forming an objective opinion or did you drop out of middle school?
For the main course.
I do more promotion on the side and bring more new people to Breakfast shows, and have been doing so for years, than *almost* anybody. Yeah the Todd Stoops shows blew. Whoops, formed an opinion, my bad, didn\'t mean to go over your head with that one. But guess what, I wasn\'t talking to you. The fact is I rage Breakfast shows front row with more enthusiasm than ever while you\'re sitting at the bar with a stone cold look on your face. So on that point you can bite me.
And for dessert.
If had any reading comprehension skills at all you\'d see that Spacey\'s quote and post basically agreed that Phish was way **** better in the early/mid 90s. Everyone who doesn\'t like a little hubbas with their persian or is a teenager who thought Coventry was awesome knows this is a fact. And yeah he told me to quit comparing the new album to the past.
Except, like you, I obviously don\'t give a **** if people think I make the occasional (or in your case 100%) dick statements on this message board.
Maybe you guys should quit wanking it over Phish\'s cheesy new pop album. I personally don\'t care if their new album sucks or not, I\'m still gonna rage Phish tour every chance I get because even though I thought most of their Summer 2009 tour was pretty weak there were some promising moments, and Hartford and SPAC pretty much kicked ass.
Oh and sorry for comparing something Phish did to something else Phish did. Not!
I have a shitload of respect for Phish like you don\'t even know. You really have no **** clue. So what if I think "Joy" is their fluffiest lamest album yet. Maybe Round Room sucked more but at least it wasn\'t as gay as "Joy". I couldn\'t really give a **** now that Trey\'s busted out the 2nd gen Languedoc and dude\'s obviously on a mission to destroy America once again, whether or not they added a few weak songs to the rotation.
Either bite me or go listen to SOAM or Stash 1994-06-11 and get a **** clue what you\'re trying to even talk about.

Quote from: Coming to Terms
Sorry for the lack of posts. The Health Care debate we knew would transpire, and the life of Sarah Palin have just not been enough to motivate. In many ways I have just checked out of the news for a while, and I don\'t see an end in sight.
Meanwhile, Phish has interested me.
Taking the advice of my friend Wendy, and some others, I decided to try it out one more time. This time it was Hartford.
Cheers, Phish, for it was very good. I\'ve listened to many of the shows they played before Hartford, and this was the first complete show that was actually start to finish both a show, and good. I never denied they could play a great version of a song here and there, or maybe have a solid 30 minutes, but overall, they were unable to perform great shows.
Lucky for me I was with people who attended Shoreline, Red Rocks, Gorge, and Chicago, in addition to the earlier East Coast shows, and all agreed, Hartford was far and away the best show. The reasons to me are obvious. They never wanted to leave the East Coast, and having come back to it after getting back in shape, they were surrounded by some of their oldest friends, families, and supporters, which I believe made them really happy. It showed in how they played.
I\'m not going to review the music outside of saying it was all played really well, and there were some excellent moments. A very good show.
But who would I be if not the straightforward contrarian? Certainly not myself, so here goes.
The band is what it is, and I\'ve come to terms with it. It\'s an event, something fun to see and hear, with moments of really good music. Certainly not groundbreaking at all. I\'ve read some reviews, message boards, etc, just to get a feel for the ridiculousness being bandied about, how "Red Rocks night 1 was the best show ever", and I laugh. Anyone who says that doesn\'t even understand that statement, or has a super potent drug which either makes the average amazing while erasing the past. The "best ever" happened, and will not happen again. It\'s a sign of the times.
The members of Phish are friends again, and because of it they can have fun on stage and with their supporters. But these four guys are no longer bound together by days on the road, endless days away from families, few worries outside of where they may have their next meal. Today these guys have real life issues which involve families, homes, responsibilities greater than what they were willing to tackle in the 90s, and countless other things. They know each other well, but they\'re not who they were then.
The same can be said for the fans, many of them have jobs they can\'t miss, spouses, children, and their own responsibilities. They cannot give what they once provided, and both the band and fans played off of that energy for years. It\'s just not the same.
New songs are written by the individual, then taught to the others, but not on some tour bus halfway through Kansas, but maybe in a studio, or on a computer. The things they bring to the table are things they do somewhat alone, and then they try to make something of it.
Then there\'s the old material, which in many ways cannot be epic because the versions played by the band of old just cannot be touched by the band of today. The emotional bonds I just referenced no longer exist. A perfect example of this is the simple notes Trey stumbled upon in the summer of 1997, which he would tease throughout many shows, until he brought to a moment during Bathtub Gin at the Great Went. Those ideas are no longer possible because of who they are in their lives.
The bottom line is it\'s just different, and it cannot be, nor will it ever be, what it was. That does not mean the show at Hartford was not great because it was.
I had hoped the band would be better than before; smarter, wiser, cleaner, and energized, but it\'s just a dream. Having seen them at their new peak on Friday night confirmed that to me. However, they did make me a fan again, and when they come back to my town, I\'ll certainly try to see them. But hearing people talk about this particular show, or this tour, as if Phish just reinvented the wheel makes me shake my head. If they did reinvent their version of the wheel, they did so by squaring it off, not by making better treads.
I\'m glad these guys have seemingly found themselves, even if only for a night here and there. It\'s important, nice to see, and fun. I can relax knowing they seem to be friends again, and in a good place. I want them for them. For me though, I\'m not delusional. They\'re a good band right now, great if you never saw anything before 1998, but I know exactly what it is that I saw and heard.
Do you?
This is from a blog I found that I believe sums everything up pretty well.
Quit comparing an album to the past. If any of you truly understood or respected Phish you would of accepted this album for what it was and not what happened in 10 years ago or any of this comparison ****.
I feel so sorry for everyone who never had the chance to really see Machine Gun Trey and either by being born too late or too lazy and missed the show.
Phish before 1998 was one band and Phish after 1998 was another.
Phish was and never will be what it was again.
I think this blog post sums it up perfectly
More importantly, if it hasn\'t been mentioned already, Andy Gadiel\'s Phish Page has been back in business. One of the first sites I used for Phish along with Phans.com or .net, although Gadiel\'s was always the best.

Just my opinion anyway. But then again 90% of the time when I play Phish it\'s the fire **** from 91 thru like 96 when Trey was pretty much constantly rippin and pushing the limits of guitar.
I did enjoy the SOAM from Red Rocks 09 very much though.
That said, I think the band is just getting warmed up and the fact that the last half dozen shows or so of the summer tour were way better than the start is a good sign. IMO Spac was their best show of the year based on quality of playing.
It\'s not like I expect them to release another Lawn Boy or Rift or Nectar or Ghost or Billy Breathes... lol.... but the new Phish sounds a lot more like pop music than progressive jam-rock to me.

Is that a serious comment? Im not going to pretend that this is a great song in the full phish catalog but Sugar Shack has quickly become my favorite song on Joy. There is easily worse on round room and joy. Besides how are you going to dis Gordon like that his voice sounds great and the overall feel of the song captures a phishy feeling of the past. 1:35 thru 2:16 is Purely uplifting.

Well, you know freddie will have a dl of that the second its out. If you ask me, $75 is a steal for what they\'re offering.
I agree that the price isn\'t steep, but here\'s my thoughts on how to run this offer:
1. Joy (Album Only) - $9.99
2. Joy (Plus Party Time) - $19.99
3. Super Deluxe "Joy Box" - $75.00
I personally don\'t need a booklet, posters for each song and a dvd...
That being said, we\'ll see what pops up... I\'m just glad that they put a new album together than this tour being a re-hash of old songs without anything new... End rant...

You tell me! Most of the stuff I post I mean, but there\'s a lot of folks on here that can be riled up quicker than me and I can\'t help myself... Muscially, I can\'t complaign about what Phish has done on this tour; it\'s not the mid/late \'90\'s, but it\'s far from \'03-\'04 either... My only complaint is the box-set version of Joy... There should be an audio only option to get both discs that doesn\'t cost $75 similar to what Pearl Jam did with Re-release of Ten...

I cant believe me and yoda actually agree on something. Joy is the ****, and ive loved let me lie since bar 17. I may have to fly to jersey and kill him now so this never happens again
I\'m also digging Twenty Years Later... Ellis, do you want me to go back to being a negative prick so the universe will go back to it\'s regular allignment?
My thought on the new songs is that the gems are the songs that are naturally coming to the guys; it\'s when they force-write new songs to sound like jammed out songs the fans would like. It\'s kind of like when PB/TB wrote Question Mark and the Mind; it\'s a great song, but doesn\'t ever get in the rotation because it\'s not what the band "sounds like"...

If I am going to go by a nickname other than NickNels, it should be more unique than flounder. People will ask me, "how did you get the nickname flounder," with which I will have to reply, "Gencs was watching Animal House one day and decided to call me flounder." A nickname needs to have a better genesis story than that, no?
Quote from: Gencs and I @ SPAC
Actually, Gencs and I were walking behind you and he said Nick needs a nickname in which I asked, "Howwa bout Flounder?"
chuckle, chuckle, chuckle
Flounder will do for the day.
Hence, the Flounder. It seems like it has stuck thus far.
It is definitely s a step up from your shortened name, that is no nick name.

As far as the new tunes, I like Kill Devil Falls a lot, Ocelot works fine, Backwards is a pretty sweet tune although they shouldn\'t open set 2 with it like they have been recently--kind of hard to jump back into a frenzy, I\'m over TTE, Stealing Time is pretty gritty but that piercing note at the end of each chorus line at the end I could do without (speaking of which, I feel like it has found its way into many a sing/jam moments lately..deriving from this Stealing riff? anyone?), and Sugar Shack is good.
These shows have been a blast to listen to. Funny how three out of four nights at Red Rocks will never get another play out of me (8/1 the exception), where as plenty of other shows will. Going to start on SPAC now.
