Driving up from San Diego to the Bowl show tonight. Is parking at the bowl really as bad as the internet makes it seem? Trying to decide which is worse - getting stacked in at the bowl for $20 and waiting 2 hours after the show to get out, or parking and taking a $10 shuttle from loving Lakewood 2 hours before the show.

SoCal is too crowded. How often does Phish go to Montana?

I don't know, but I know that when they did in 1994, this happened: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oak6Wy-RE6Q

Have people seen the Hollywood Harry Hood yet? The lights in this video are out of this world. I'm not really big on Harry Hood but I think think they killed it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mDQ1L523v4

I'm so happy, I'm finally at the point where I'm actively seeking out 3.0 Phish and am genuinely excited to catch the streams of shows I can't get to. I never thought I could get as excited for new Phish as I have for 90s stuff.

Having the lights of the dome itself to play with added a lot to the lightshow I thought. That Harry Hood was a highlight in what I thought was a really good second set. I wish I'd been closer to the stage...last year's Long Beach show was at a miserable venue, but I was like 30 yards from the stage, as opposed to what felt like a quarter-mile the other night.

I heard people at the Bowl show talking about "The Gorge" being great shows. I want to buy the second night from there...despite the first set having several songs in common with the show I just saw, it also has The Curtain (With). Then second set is Down With Disease > Undermind > Light > Sneaking Sally (reviews on Phish.net saying best Sneaking ever?) > 2001 > Walls of the Cave > Fluffhead > Antelope.

I've always wanted to catch a Curtain With, Fluffhead, or one of Trey's stories at a show, so I may pick this one up to sustain me. The only Gamehenge songs I've seen live are AC/DC bag on Sunday, and Divided Sky in 2003.

Yesterday was a complete poo poo show for grabbing tickets for Glens Falls and Worcester. I managed to snag 2 GA's for Glens Falls online and had over 5 minutes left on the site's timer when I entered in all of my information, and then: "Could not find your shopping cart, please try again". :suicide:

The 2-day pass ticket for Worcester was a total trap too, my friend and I both entered the Ticketmaster que at 11:00 sharp, and after 10+ minutes of waiting with a "less than 1 minute" wait, our ques crashed and we were forced to 'start over'. I decided to bypass the web and just try calling on the phone, and after ~25 minutes or so was finally able to speak with a real person who helped me lock down 2 tickets for each night. Phew, what a hassle! It's been forever since I haven't had to rely on the lottery or friends with extras that I forgot just how insane public onsale can be. Anyways, couldn't be more excited for Worcester > Hartford > Reading. 4 shows in 5 nights in the good 'ole Northeast in late October looks sooooo good on my calendar right now!

Anybody staying in Boston for Worcester? The town's rooms look completely booked, so my friend and decided to stay with some old college buddies who live in South Boston and we're planning on catching the rail to and from the show.

Does the commuter rail even run to Worcester? Careful on your return trip. Everything shuts down early.

According to a friend, it ought to drop us off within 1/2 mile from the venue, and the last departing rail back to Boston leaves at 12am. It's a bit of a hassle, especially if the shows run over the DCU curfew (apparently it was somewhere around 11:30pm in 2010). Unless I hear that it's a really sketchy/unsafe idea to do this then I'm up for it.

Worcester's not that bad, downtown at least. It's a LONG cab ride if you miss that train though.

It was the 2nd best I've heard. My favorite would be the Gorge 2009 version, where it was the soundtrack to an alien spaceship landing. But yes, both Gorge shows are fantastic. I know this an about a month old post but if you haven't picked both up, or at least listened to both, I highly recommend it.

Speaking of three Hampton shows, I'll be creating an unofficial Hampton poster for the upcoming events of October 18-20. I'm also involved in the Mill Point Music Festival (11am-8pm) on October 19th if anyone is planning on going to downtown Hampton for the Phish shows that weekend --- we're having Natalie Cressman and James Casey playing that afternoon (members of the Trey Anastasio Band). PM me or post here if you need any info, it's totally free and it's gonna be a blast.

Strongest Rumors:

Elton John - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

Paul Simon - Graceland

They're not going to play The Grateful Dead




A second drummer was onstage over the weekend in Woshtah, some guy from the Berklee Jazz Faculty.

That's really the best hint we have so far - most likely this drummer and other special guests will be involved.


I'm really impressed that in the PT age of camera phones and E-Mails that 3 days before the show this album is still a secret.


Although, we didn't really know about WFC in 2010 until the day of the show.

Exile got somewhat spoiled in 2009, we knew Sharon Jones and the Dapkings were involved which made it most likely to be Exile.





So, the short answer is no. We have no idea.

Funeral For A Friend/Love Lies Bleeding would be amazing, but Goodbye Yellow Brick Road is sort of an up and down affair with the heavy hitters on sides 1 and 2. I'd love to hear it though.

I'm streaming it, its definately not a classic rock album, some dudes are calling it 'dad' rock, I'm diggin it. A couple acoustic numbers, Mike on a stand up bass, dancing wombat (abe vigoda?), and I'd be rageing if I was there for sure. Set 3 will be bonkers. Maybe even a couple nods.

As lame a concept as the second set was, I'm kind of excited that Bob Ezrin is producing the new record. For years I've wondered why they haven't tried using a big name producer. Left to themselves the band makes questionable decisions sometimes.

The mood around here is pretty funny. We keep running into random phans and making jokes about rolling with Diego and Jack and Jill. High points and low points. I dunno, it's their party and they can do what they want to.

Phish have returned to their trolling ways. Gotta love them playing their own unreleased album. I can only imagine how horrible it was to sit there for over an hour listening to them play new songs that no one had heard before. Even when they were releasing new songs and playing them over and over, you could still count on a break after every song or two where they'd play something people actually wanted to hear. But wow...twelve in a row.

Yep, Phish are back.

You mean Loaded, and yes. I was at that show and it was rear end. The Rock and Roll was great and the general reaction was well played set, but people were bored. People were wandering about and talking. The word was, the night before, that Loaded was the choice. No one had any idea what it was. (Yes, this is hyperbole, but very few people knew what it was.) The night before was the killer show, anyway. Stash > Manteca > Tweezer was nuts and has an actual segueway from Manteca > Tweezer as opposed to Phishs normal dropping into the song from a jam.

Remain in Light was 1996.

They've always done weird poo poo for Halloween. The Remain in Light closer Overload is the single weirdest...thing they've ever done, and they did a 3 song third set in 1998, with Trey basically walking off the stage afterward.

I haven't listened to the set, but how bad could new Phish songs possibly be? Ironically, I'm glad there are people complaining that we get new Phish tunes rather than complaining over how they didn't completely destroy Eat a Peach or Lamb Lies Down on Broadway or whatever.

The fun of a Halloween set was them donning a musical costume and covering another bands music. Playing their own stuff that will shortly get overplayed isn't fun for anyone but the band.

For me it's this overwhelming feeling of Phish laziness. Blah blah blah all down hill since '95 or what ever, but you just get this feeling that maybe they did that so they didn't have to spend the time rehearsing an additional 40+ minutes of material. I just get that feeling, I know it's dumb, but I just do.

edit: Prima Facie I do like the idea of keeping it fresh by not doing a cover album, however.
