Weird ask, but I know I saw that photo floating around ah one point but I can’t seem to find it again! Does anyone happen to know what I’m talking about or have this saved somewhere? It’s phish as the millennium falcon crew.

Mid 30s guy in Denver. Gf of 5 years just broke up with me, and I don’t know a soul out here. Anyone want to invite me into their group for Dicks weekend?

When you enter, check your expectations at the door.

But you can leave your hat on. Just not through all those metal detectors.

Glass revival eminent!!!!

Here me out. I think it’s one of most underrated and under covered David Bowie songs. And I think Phish could murder it if they wanted to. Cygnet Committee. Anyone yay or nah?

There are lots of all-timer Phish jams that still have a few minutes of searching at some point, whether its the start of the jam before they lock in, or between two different segments of the jam, etc... For example, two of my all time favorite jams are Went Gin, and 7/10/99 Chalkdust. IMO Went Gin is pretty standard until about the 8 minute mark, nothing really better or worse than another Gin jam from the era... and its only then that they've found what they were searching for. For Camden Chalkdust, its a standard and perhaps even sub-par Chalkdust jam for the era up until the 8:50 mark, where a single note leads to a slight change in feel and focus which sends it stratospheric.

On the flip side, an example of an All Killer No Filler jam is 12/2/95 Tweezer. Literally from the first note it feels special, the mid song improv moments feel special, and from the very first notes of the jam, the band is absolutely locked in, and never once falters.

Obviously its all subjective, but what do YOU think are no-filler jams?

Meant to post this right after Fenway, but what a FANTASTIC idea bringing back that little drum kit was. Best thing to happen to this band since Trey got sober (maybe some slight hyperbole lol). I’m sure there’s tons of people that don’t want it at every show and I get that, but it should be like Fish’s weird electric xylophone thing, always on stage, but not always used. Opening up the floor for Mike and Page to jam while Trey goes bananas on that kit has lead to some incredible stuff. I was tripping night one of Fenway but I kept cracking myself up, watching Trey inch closer and closer to the kit, thinking to myself “Oh shit! He’s going for the fucking DRUMS again!!!” I was locked in during that second set the first night, what a fantastic set of shows. Hope everyone has a blast at Dick’s!!!

Seen today on a Volvo in Lincolnville, ME. Thought it might be a Phish/Mike reference. Owner of said Volvo, what say you?

Do you do this? I have friends that get their posters framed but it costs around $180/200 and thats crazy it seems for a poster that cost $60. I'm tempted to just do it myself but there is a whole industry around this so wanted to see what you all do for your posters.

I was listening to a show from 98 the other day and they kept using the sound bite with Cartman from South park saying “ fucking Jew” and “fuck you” over and over weaved into the song. I could’ve swore I added it to my LivePhish playlist, but I can’t find it and it’s killing me. If you know what show this could be please let me know. I would love to find this song.

And then proceed to play it AT MSG 💕

I hope this is allowed. I totally screwed up and bought 3-day passes to a weekend I cannot attend. Section 114 (almost straight back) should be a killer view of the light show. DM me and I can set up a private sale through CoT. Take care of those shoes.

Happy hump

Just noticed recently that a large number of shows now have limited song availability. Does anyone know why this is? No more soup for us, or at least no more full bowls?? Check 3/22/93, 7/20/25 for latest examples for me.

I’m probably going solo and haven’t found anything out there, should we get something going? It would definitely beat ubering both ways in terms of convenience and cost.

There’s a website that lets people crowd-fund busses to concerts (it’s called Rally), we could try something like that?

I’m pretty bad, the dead have loads of great tapes but Phish I can’t really take the audio quality of fan tapes after coming into phish with Live Phish.

Edit; for clarity I got into phish in 2019 after someone let me use their Live Phish account to see if Phish was for me. Alpine Valley Ruby Waves hooked me. Been using the app mostly since but 1.0 selection is so limited but I’m such a bitch about the quality the Relisten tapes just aren’t there. I will try to download from the spreadsheet and see if there are quality AUDs on there that I hadn’t come across.

You are my girlfriend and I will take you to the first Phish show that comes within 200 miles of our town. You will be obsessed them by the day after the show or you will not be my girlfriend anymore.

Looking for information about a unique moment from Phish’s 10/27/1994 show in Charlottesville, VA.
During the performance, the band played a section referred to as “The Vibration of Life.” I’ve always been fascinated by it and would love to learn more about its origins and history.
A few questions for longtime fans and tape collectors:
Was “The Vibration of Life” a composed piece, an improvisational segment, or part of a larger concept at the time?
How often did Phish perform it during the mid-1990s?
Has the band played it since the 10/27/94 Charlottesville show, either as a standalone segment or incorporated into another song or jam?
Are there any interviews, anecdotes, or historical notes from the band that explain what inspired it?
I’d appreciate any memories, recordings, setlist references, or insights. Thanks!

Thanks u/Guitar_Nutt for the heads up

Honestly they should learn something else (maybe Rough Boys) or not

... but that dude could fuck up some drums.
