Phish 1997 06 22 Loreley, St. Goarshausen, Koblenz, Germany 

The soundtrack to my life.

Great quote and im so glad I witnessed a ton of it

that is the wonderful way to put it not just because I completely agree :)....like 98 just as example a band that couldn't help but not mesmerize on small show like sessions on west 54th street in a year in which they played yet another incredible festival like the Lemonwheel. All while having that run from island shows through my favorite summer gorge, prague, portland meadows, shoreline, that acoustic set :), playing terrapin finally virginia beach, and in fall my favorite show for entertainment and great music the wipeout show in Worcester along with countless I haven't mentioned. So many phases of sonic curiosity by this point you could and would hear pieces of it all in a single show. As a miles fan reminds me of his passing through and absorbing all elements of his craft from blues, swing, bebop, going to europe finding his sound scoring a film, creating modal jazz with gil, avant guard, fusion al be it later as phish did with bluegrass, funk, spacey soundscapes/ambient sound, orchestral, theatrical, rock, jazz, zappa' touch, and I do believe their halloween shows helped firmly they were never the same after remain in the light imo such an incredible sound and style and so funky. Phish between 90-2000 reminds me of Miles decade with 56-66 roughly. A bebop quintet playing relaxin, workin', cookin', to a new sound in kind of blue. Coltrane leaves Wayne shorter and younger quintet of 60's playing miles in sky and at an incredible level leading into bitches brew and in a silent way he'd mastered it all . Both bands in very different times and ways refined their lines and music to something so lyrical and immediately recognizable. Like you refined all that into 2 sentences for everyones benefit. :) ✌

That's pretty funny!

Thank you now I gotta find the primus set

It would be the same if they toured Europe now

@@pebblesanddirt I seriously doubt that. Most of the shows would be filled with Americans traveling with them lol

@@jjmah7 that’s mostly who was there back then. The band has almost no fan base outside the us. They couldn’t book many large places on just the hope fans would travel europe with them.

Absolutely the best year

97-00 🔥🔥🔥

October 26th?

Ellis Dee in the daytime in Fukin Allemande damn right

Yeah, Alpine 97 was also awesome taste, and I'm good at English

Pretty sure that's the wolfman's brother.....Don Fishman

The guys had him deloused

For sure! LOCKED IN

Fun fact: Trey played on Gimme some lovin later this year with Winwood in Burlington. Also, Trey and Paige sat in with Panic in 93 at the Roxy in LA for a ridiculous Low Spark (Winwood). Wonder what caused him to not come out? Although he didn't write it I always loved Phish's take on Traffic's light up or leave me alone on the early tapes I had. Saw a bunch of shows from 94-99 and was blessed with the bust out on 12/30/99 - 1st in 10 years and on what turned out to be my final run. That was a really fun new years, even though I had to sacrifice DDBB with Panic

Don’t call them boys….it’s stupid

yeah what a great version. One of my favorite phish songs, ive actually cried when seeing it played live (was on drugs for sure)

The Jon Sullen Melancholy Edition

It's cool homie, were on camera!

James Cason that’s you?! Well done. I wonder how many Europeans vs Americans were in the audience

Yes it is possible for someone NOT to like Phish. Get over it.

think you have this backwards..

Eric B. A mic pointing up at a 45 allows you to sing while still looking down at your frets. A mic parallel w the stage requires you to be looking out at the crowd rather than down at your frets

the goal is to look at hotties and not have to look at anything else cuz you frkn ROCK

jus sayin

Eric B. Haha! That is the goal. I always have to look at my frets. Some players don’t and I always wonder how. I have seen it mess Trey up on a couple of occasions.

They know what they’re doing

Relax

God I hate milthins.

@@walindour I’m sitting here today with my new calculator multiplying all these new numbers I just learned. 13, 91,62, 43 and so on. Stuff like that. Crazy the new things you can learn from new numbers. Changed my opinion on milthinian prophecy. Thankfully I didn’t divide any of those pesky primes into the new scheme. I probably wouldn’t be so generous as to think sur Henry McThew would cordial to the fact I’ve bestowed new numbers onto him.

@@mikegordon7040 Dots and dashes can appease the people when presenting new calculations. I don’t pretend to have knowledge of the prophecy but the milthinians have a deep distrust of decimals. They overuse exclamation points to make shaky proclamations, which is why sir Henry McThew may steal your calculator and blow fire on your new numbers.

@@walindour decimals?

​@@mikegordon7040 does your calculator have beads? A soroban? Or maybe it's made in Texas. Either way, Melvil Dewey could shed a little light on this situation. But he's dead.
