BRING BACK WILD CHILD!!!
People. You can never change the way they feel!
Fast Sanity and Shaggy Dog.
I like’em.
Kinda wish i heard’em.
oh yah, and Wild Child.
I really got into '80s pheeesh back during summer tour '98. My tour mate had TONS of early phish and we rocked out during the wee hours of the nights trying to get to the next stop. There was soooo much developing during the 87-89 era. I feel like some of the best improv phish did was during these years. The early 90’s saw them really tighten up and ditch the jamming. K. thats it for now.
98 is when i was starting to get some great sounding 80’s stuff as well. My fondness for the fasanity is well documented on the board and you are correct to crave it sir!
Not that big of a fan of 80’s phish.
It’s kinda like getting a BJ from a girl in the 8th grade.
At first your like, this is awsome.
Then a few years pass and you get more from older girls.
You realize that that one back in 8th grade really wasn’t that good.
Not that any BJ is bad, its just that you know that they got better later.
Exactly. any blowjob is better than a kick in the nuts!
There are just too many good shows from the '80’s and I don’t have nearly enough of them. What’s everyone’s favorite '80’s show?

Sunday, May 28, 1989
Ian McLean’s Party, Connie Condon’s Farm, Hebron, NY
Set I: Divided Sky, Run Like an Antelope, Colonel Forbin’s Ascent > The Famous Mockingbird, Fee > Slave to the Traffic Light, Esther, Suzy Greenberg, You Enjoy Myself
Set II: Fire, Mike’s Song > I Am Hydrogen > Weekapaug Groove, Bathtub Gin, Sanity, Ride Captain Ride, Peaches en Regalia, Take the ‘A’ Train, Possum, Contact, Funky (Breakdown) -> The Price of Love, Funky Bitch, Split Open and Melt, The Mango Song, Harry Hood
Set III: Jam -> La Grange Jam, The Sloth, Sneakin’ Sally Through the Alley > Ya Mar, Jesus Just Left Chicago
Show Notes: Trey dedicated the Divided Sky opener to “the spirit of the pig.” This YEM featured the infamous “Poop Vocal Jam,” followed by a set-stopping keg run. Antelope included the word “spliff” instead of “spike” in the lyrics and Mike’s Song included a tease of the HBO theme song. Funky (Breakdown) and Price of Love featured guest appearances by Ninja Mike (vocals) and Magoo (guitar). Fishman intermittently played trombone and vacuum during the latter.
I think you’re right, that might be everyone’s favorite '80’s show, I know it is mine. That awesome breakdown in Contact, that YEM, that out of this world Sanity. It really doesn’t get much better.
1987-03-23 is pretty great. Only appearance of “Why Don’t You Love Me Like You Used To Do” as well. If you haven’t heard it, you better fix that quick!
