Why I'm ridiculously excited for this tour

Phish Live Shows
#6

Well I’m very excited because it’s fresh again for me…I was burned out after 2004 and really needed a break from a band who I was obsessed with listening to and following around the country since 98’…

So I put Phish away from 04’ till Hampton and really did not listen to them at all in that time span… The breakup and arrest was really tough for me to swallow…That “Self-Hiatus” I took made Hampton SOOOOO special for me…Listening to those shows made me realize that they are a really special group of musicians who I sorley missed…

I’m very happy Trey is improving his lifestyle…Phish 3.0 is gonna be really cool, i can’t wait till Summer!!!

Creek>Alpine squared>Hometown Chi-Town will be my run…

#7

I’m pretty much in the same boat as you, clever.

got a taste in the post-hiatus era, floated around for 5 years and finished college. Now that they’re back I’m ready to devote myself to seeing Phish for a while (as long as they keep me interested)…gotta live while I’m still young.

I too am excited for phish for the Heroin :D. But seriously i’m excited because i love Phish and have ever since i started listening to the Dead, WSP, and SCI etc, and they have always been my favorite. and listening to that new hampton sound it sounds unlike any other Phish ever. Wahhooo!

#9

That’s exactly what I’m saying, Kevin. Did you put in for a Fenway ticket?

#10

im gonna eat so much bunk molly!!! I HOPE I GET A JENNIFER DANCES

-O.A.R. FANatic

#11

And the good news is it doesn’t make you sick if you miss a day… ;D

#12

Speak for yourself :-X :wink:

#13

Never would have thought I’d be back in…

i kind of bowed (?) out after lemonwheel, did catch a few (6) after the ‘break’, moments of goodnees, but many, many “trey wails on the geetar and the crowd goes wild” poopiness,

that being said (or written) the downloads of hampton blew me away!!!

I know its been said that they didn’t “JAM” enough, but for me Phish is and has always been a do anything band. If they are into it then I am into it.

A long, long drawn out Jiboo or a dead-on farmhouse? Bet the house every time!

More MULE.

the majority of the shows i went to were before the first break. those were my favorites. after that i kinda drifted away and didn’t really care as much. i went to two post hiatus shows mainly because my buddy got me a ticket and it was close by. i had a blast but it wasn’t the same. then we did coventry and that was that.

i’m pretty excited about this time around though. like buffalo bill said above, even though they didn’t do a ton of 30min jams at hampton i thought the way they were playing in general was refreshing to hear. they seemed to be excited to be back.

I’m excited for the summer tour because I just heard antelope on the weather channel!!!

#19

^I think I heard the tail end of “If I Could” on WC the other day

#20

I have heard Inlaw a couple of times. That is the PERFECT WC song IMO

#21

Back in? We never really can back out… Bowed out? We never can really bow in…

Were just there. Or were here. Or inbetween. Or not.

::calls wolfman’s brother:: ;D

#22

^^WC played the instrumental section of Esther once. It was the greatest “Local on the 8s” ever.

#23

Anyone know why the weather channel plays so much Phish???
I remember hearing Divided Sky and Esther on there before.
Used to turn the weather channel up real loud in my dorm so my
roommate couldnt hear me having sex. He was pretty weird.

#24

… and yes , i am also ridiculously excited for this tour as well. They will kill shit
and fuck it up old-school again.
