Audience Participation Poll

Phish Live Shows
#1

Alright, I’ve rounded up the suggestions. Vote for the audience response that you think would create the coolest effect and make the guys take notice. I’ve included an option to vote down a new response. If people are still down with the idea I think it would be worth the effort, but if there’s just luke warm enthusiasm we can still pull the plug. So please vote even if you don’t like any of the ideas.

After the vote, we can have people create fliers to post online. Then, we’ll have to spread the news around the net and target shows where several pahs will be in attendance. There’s a lot of things we can do to organize, but lets settle on a favorite and take it from there.

We’ll let the poll ride until there is a clear winner. After some time, if several suggestions are neck and neck, I’ll give a count down to close the poll.

Have at it.

Gotta vote for my own idea… right?

#3

i voted sit down during hydrogen. Just seems neccesary.

#4

i’m going with the hum. i think that would be awesome.

#5

i think the sit down during hydrogen would be awesome, because then when fishman’s snare hit comes for 'paug everyone would jump back up in a frenzy, prompting mike to lay down the most dominant slappage ever

#6

the hum.

#7

Yeah I got to vote for mine. The sit down during Hydrogen although the hum is pretty sweet.

#8

Had to vote for the hum.

I mean really, what guy out there doesn’t love a good hummer?! :wink:

#9

My idea is clearly the best.

#10

I like the swapping the Hood and Stash clap. Whoever’s idea that was…brilliant.

#11

how often is hydrogen gonna be played though? i mean, i know this is phish 3.0 and all, but even before the breakup how often was it played compared to divided, reba, stash, et al?

#12

^ Since 2.0 they’ve pretty much being doing the standard Mike’s Groove. And they played Mike’s Groove a shit load 2.0.

#13

Nice. We’ve got some good competition going here. Keep the votes rolling in. If things stay this close I wouldn’t be totally against rolling out the Divided and Hydrogen efforts.

Let’s let this ride out a while. I’d like to see at least 30 votes before we make any decisions. I want to be sure we have the man power to make this happen. In that vain, if you are willing to pass out fliers and spread the word on the net, throw a post up. It will give us an idea of what we have to work with and it’ll help keep this thread toward the top of the list.

Keep it real nerds.

#14

the hum makes the most sense to me. It will give us something to do while Trey does his rock star thing. And I think they’ll notice. So much better than just cheering during that pause.

#15

“Sultaneous sit down” simply sounds awesome. Like, we’re all sultans and sitting down TOGETHER. How fucking cool would that be?

#16

i agree with this. i think both are good ideas.

as far as fliers go, i’d be willing to pass some out in the lots before the shows i’m at.

#17

Alright. We have a dead heat. I’d like to get people’s input without conducting another formal poll. So, please answer by posting in this thread.

Should we attempt both the Divided and Hydrogen ideas? Or, should we set a winning number of votes and ride out the poll?

this coming from a guy who has 1,300 posts on a fan site. :wink:

and, by the way, if i’m a nerd to think that it would be cool for 10,000 people to simultaneously enter into “conversation” with a group of musicians who thrive on the concept of communication, then pass me some spock ears.

I think we should probably stick with one. It’ll be alot harder to do the grassroots deal with 2 ideas. Better to focus on one idea. I came up with the Hydrogen sit down, but since everyone sitting down was in the Secret language maybe we should focus on the hum. It’s a pretty solid idea and would be pretty sweet during the silent section of Divided Sky instead of hearing screaming.
