E:
Set 2 was the band’s musical costume. They covered the album “Pure Guava” by Ween in it’s entirety.
Sets 2 and 3 with the Giant Country Horns.
Why did you feel the need to post that…??
bigb, PM me the Ween set and I’ll post it with mine.
what the hell are you guys talking about?
why does he have to PM it to you?
arent they just playing the album?
maybe im missing something
Well they’ve gotta include loads of Phishy antics…so it’s not just like copying down the tracklist.
Also…I’ve got a super special surprise instore for the 11/2/07 show…if the tour doesn’t end before…
does uh, anyone mind if i do a show for 10/30? im trying to get back into the fantasy stuff. greg? is that cool?
No problemo.
BigB make sure you specify in your set which band member sings what song…and any other antics!
You can do a 10/30 show, but make it quick and make it at the same arena as the Halloween show. I’m still getting the Halloween show hammered out with bigb.

Show notes
Set One Notes
*Trey welcomes everyone to “Phish Halloween part 5” and begins a tale of Colonel Forbin. It seems Colonel Forbin, while climbing the mountain, encountered some others along the way. First he saw some beetles, but they were just tiny bugs and couldn’t him him. Then he saw some mysterious shadows, but everyone he asked “who??” they just said “who!!” Then he saw four human heads sitting on a cliff, but they wouldn’t stop talking among themselves so he couldn’t get directions. Finally, he had fallen into a cave which is covered entirely in velvet. He found his way back up and wondered who could possibly help him now. That’s when he saw the Boognish, “who was singing the greatest song ever written…” **After Roses Are Free, Trey continues the narration to say that the Boognish and Icculus got into a huge fight because the Boognish wanted to use the Mockingbird to get the Helping Friendly Book to rule Prussia. Colonel Forbin rides the Mockingbird and throws some scotchgard at the Boognish to kill it. Then the Mockingbird flies Colonel Forbin to the Book, but accidentally leaves him in the tower. ***With a jam based on ‘This Is Halloween’ from The Nightmare Before Christmas.

*Unusually sung by Page and Fishman rather than Trey and Mike. ** With a long jam that used the Piper lyrics but did not actually sound like Piper. ***Beatles cover, first time played. # With the Giant Country Horns.
I likey! Good job guys…what was the ‘fan reaction’ to the show, did Trey throw a hissy ala 98?
And also does the tour end here or is there an 11/2/07 show?
let’s give them a few days off…tour starts back up and continues through mid december…next show is on 11.5.07
Somebody didn’t read the rules thread.
