it looked so weird to me to see trey playin a strat and mike’s guitarist playing a 'doc during a phish tune. i know paul sells them now and all that, but it just looks strange seeing someone else play one especially when they’re playing with members of phish. i guess that guitar was part of the phish/trey mystique. for the longest time, only one person used one. but don’t worry, i’m sure i’ll get over it soon enough.
^^Shit. I guess I was wrong. Oh well. That’s what me and a couple friends thought. I knew everyone called Fishman ‘Fish’, but I thought he had already said his name.
i did a momentary look and didnt see it off hand, it was one of the first vids put up and linked on phantasytour.com, but now pt is too dang slow to search. ill keep looking later and post it.
you dont see him put at fish but he introduces everyone in the band and you see him point at trey and he says “trey” and then himself and he says “me”, then the camera lowers and you hear him say “(ph)fish”. since he introduced everyone except fishman its reasonable to assume that thats what hes doing
I’m with you there. I wasn’t born when Revolver came out, but I’m a huge Beatles freak (got a tattoo of John Lennon on my arm). I was blown away by how many people didn’ know the song.
Similar experience the night before during DMB. A lot of people looked pretty perplexed when they played Sledgehammer, which I thought kicked much ass.
for a good long while, she said she said was THE beatles tune for me. it was just so driving and ahead of it’s time. it’s sad because i killed it for myself. had trey and mike played it 10 years ago i woulda lost ma cool. now it’s more like, oh that’s nice.
on that note, i loved that trey was playing both Dig a Pony and I am the Walrus with his band for a while. i was lucky enough to see both live and it was damn cool.
Yes Scott Murawski has been playing a 'Doc for a while (saw him with Mike and Ramble Dove at 'Roo in 2006)…as far as I know, he’s the only other real musician in “the scene” playing one.
I was able to make it there and it was without a doubt the best festival i have ever been to. It was so organized and clean! And yes the Alaska song is really good.
I think I’m the wrong one here. I just researched it. I was told it was a 'Doc once, and I guess just assumed that they we’re right, due to the beautiful shape and style, and amazing tone.
