Nice, thanks!!
Seems cool so far!
So, they’re on a boat?
Curious about what song that is playing as well.
(Off to pre-order!)
EDIT: Well, apparently I can’t order it yet. What gives, Phish?
Apparently it’s a page tune and was sound checked at the Mann this summer

starts somewhere in between the 3 and 6 min or so mark…
Also pulled this of .net fwiw
“The title “Big Boat” comes from the lyrics inside of “Friends”. These songs have been registered with BMI, registration order has nothing to do with track order:”
20923933 no man in no mans land
20924018 how many people are you
22584207 blaze on
22584212 tide turns
22584218 miss you
22584320 friends
22584221 things people do
22584256 shade
22584307 waking up dead
22584327 ass handed
22614284 breath and burning
They may have a few more to be added and maybe some will be taken off, but i think this is close
Here is what we do know
“The album art was created in 2008 by Beijing-based artist Fang Er as part of her Don’t Touch Me! series. The image selected by Phish for the Big Boat cover art is titled Don’t Touch Me! #12. Other prints in the series can be viewed via Shanghai’s M97 Gallery, which described the series like this:”
“By carefully manipulating and reconstructing these buildings, Fang Er revives the loss of symmetry and proportion that is absent within present day China in her series Don’t Touch Me!. She is “sensitive” to the perpetual transformation amongst the constant chaos and discord that exists in a burgeoning country. In an unconventional way she is able to anthropomorphize these buildings, giving them humanistic qualities resulting in abstract, delicate alien-like figures.”
Today, Rolling Stone published a Fall Preview which includes Big Boat among the LP’s detailed. The brief piece reveals “Miss You” will be featured on the album:

Meanwhile, us normal people are like “Wow, that’s a neat-looking boat!” and then never give it another thought.
The brief piece reveals “Miss You” will be featured on the album:
Until now, I had assumed that the “Miss You” I saw on the setlists was a Rolling Stones cover. How funny.

[i]ITUNES POSTS TRACKLIST FOR PHISH’S 13TH STUDIO ALBUM ‘BIG BOAT’
Very late Monday night, iTunes released the entire tracklist for Phish’s 13th studio album ‘Big Boat’ (due 10/7) along with the option to buy the first single “Breath and Burning.” The 13 tracks were listed for just a few minutes but long enough for fans to take a screen grab and begin discussing why “Mercury” and “Steam” weren’t included and if “Asshanded” would be a secret bonus track. Here’s the ‘Big Boat’ breakdown:
PHISH | BIG BOAT
- Friends (3:42)
- Breath and Burning (4:20)
- Home (6:26)
- Blaze On (4:20)
- Tide Turns (4:21)
- Things People Do (1:54)
- Waking Up Dead (4:15)
- Running Out of Time (3:32)
- No Men in No Man’s Land (4:59)
- Miss You (7:01)
- I Always Wanted It this Way (4:29)
- More (4:22)
- Petrichor (13:32)
Phish keeps their humor alive as “Blaze On” boasts a track time of 4:20. Despite no “Mercury” or “Steam”, a welcome surprise to many should be the inclusion of the 13-minute composition “Petrichor.” This is from Trey Anastasio’s Orchestra tour in 2014. Check out the performance with the LA Philharmonic in September 2014. Also of note is “Home”, a Page McConnell original which was part of a Phish soundcheck earlier this summer in Philadelphia.
We’ll have details on the pre-order and vinyl packages once Phish officially gives word.[/i]
PS I’m sure everyone’s going to love “Petrichor” as much as TTE. 
I realize I am not everyone, but I really like TTE.
The biggest bummer about that song is how the place empties out. That takes my energy away way more than the song itself.
^I find that Wingsuit has this effect too. It has a sweet jam but, man, folks just start bailing when it starts.
I’m curious to hear this Petrichor. It’s kinda of nice to get a new album with a few songs that I haven’t already heard a bunch of times from live shows.
Agree 100%, and I also love the Phish version more than the orchestral version. I just meant that the last time they tagged a long composition at the end of an album that was a Phish arrangement of a Trey orchestral piece, it sank.
Also, why no Mercury or Shade? Both beautiful tunes.
^I was very surprised about a lack of Mercury. That seems like a song that was just begging for the studio treatment. It’s got so many parts that it can be hard to remember so I was hoping for a “cleaned up” version so I could get a grasp on it.
Me too. First vibe I got was “studio,” maybe because I heard some Rhodes from Page in there . . . 
I like the horn addition to Breath and Burning.
The horns are reminiscent of Van Morrison.
Big Goat will be amaze balls
Preordered the vinyl last night.
My first time hearing Breath & Burning. I’m gonna have to start all over with this song, and find a way to accept it for what it is … my first impression wasn’t good. I like the Page line kinda though. But this is maybe a perfect example of what some are calling Dad Rock. I really want to like it, but I probably sound like such a hater. Oh well. I won’t lie to myself and pretend I love it. It could sure be worse, to be real fair about it. Anyway it’s relative; I bought the record, you know? Hell my new song is so retarded my wife and I fought about how retarded it is.
Although why no Steam, or How Many People Are You? … two of my favorite 3.0 tunes.
I think it’s perfectly ok to have this opinion of a lot of the tunes they play. I think Trey knows the Phish crowd, but I can’t imagine him really knowing the “TAB” crowd. Why? Because there isn’t a TAB crowd. It’s people who like Phish who will go see Trey (and have a blast! But would they trade it for a Phish show?)
So what I think we’re seeing here is that Trey is approaching Phish albums with the same “this is mine and I hope you like it” attitude that he uses with TAB albums instead of an enthusiasm for adding to the excitement of what “Phish” really is. Instead of “our last album showcased as many different styles as we could think of, so this one will be a well thought-out narrative” (a la “Rift”) we’re getting “I wrote this simple, profound song for my wife and I think you guys (Mike, Page, Fish) will understand (and they do) and get into what it means to be a sober 50 year-old” not really noticing that “Summer of '89” isn’t meant for us or for Phish. It seems like they’d rather be in control of what Phish means to them than to accept its special-ness.
That actually means being more creative with what you know works. “How can we write a new song worthy of a Phish show?” I know they are asking that, because we get gems like “Steam” and “Mercury” and “No Man’s.” It just doesn’t seem to be happening as consistently as we’d like.
What a great post! I’ve sorta been dreading whatever response I’d get for saying all that, but this one rules. Very well articulated. And of course I agree. It’s as if his bandmates don’t have the heart to confront him about these tunes, or maybe they just like playing songs that Trey is excited about in general…
I am glad that I like it more than the pair of tunes from Fuego that bug me … and speakin o’ Bug, that reminds me that Phish songs that scream “ordinary” and sometimes make me scream “wtf are you even talkin about dude” … are nothing new.
But suddenly it’s simplistic feel-good lyrics, that sound more suited to little kids at church camp, than to a person such as myself. That’s taking it too far!!
I was okay with realizing they weren’t gonna be silly anymore. Then I tried to get comfortable with no more detailed composed sections. Then I had to get used to, okay, now every so often they’re making songs that aren’t even very interesting at all. I could deal with all of that. But it’s the saccharine simplistic positivity in lyrics like “Light”, “Joy”, “BDtNL”, “Devotion to a Dream”, … it just reminds me of all that lame Christian rock I can’t stand. I’m down with Christianity, but they need to stick w/the hymnal.
I have a real hard time stomaching this new strain of Phish, and I’m glad someone can say to me, ‘that’s perfectly ok’! And I’m glad too, that I can probably expect a decent balance in the album, enough to enjoy it. I am more than glad that they’ve made these last few albums. It’s just the handful of tunes that make me wince, that I wish were relegated to TAB.
Don’t get me started on Mike Gordon’s songwriting representation. Oh, how we could use more Mike lyrics on Phish albums these days.
