I had no idea that anyone was still making commercially successful "music to listen to" these days. This is not Pink Floyd but it fills the hole that 50 years have left. This is great, wish i had found this band back in 83. Regards from the UK.
Well, they’ve been around for almost that long, so you’ve got forty years and change of brilliant material to catch up on. Congratulations! Gonna be a hell of a ride.
In 83 only about 5 people had found them probably. 1988 probably a few thousand. 92-94 was when they started getting nationally known. Then 95-97 super popular
i doubt we could really cut loose there tho… i mean can people find spots to dance? i imagine they expect the attendees to actually stay in their seats…
Being a younger Phan for years, I’m so happy that many got to feel their shows in the moment. Both for phish and the dead. I’ve listened to them for years and for me it feels like it’s an archive of lessons to be learn/understand from years past. Sometimes it’s just simply a good jam, a KILLER jam, or deeper than that where I learn much more. I’m going to the first dead night as my high school graduation gift for myself and I know how much this’ll change for me. I’m so glad people got to experience these bands within their own lifetime.
Happy 420 y'all Phish fr life surrender to the flow been going to this band since I was 7 I've grown with this band and the community never ends to amaze me peace and love
It makes me happy this is happened. It makes me sad that I was not there. I am hopeful that y’all will go back, and I will move mountains to get there!
Imagine pulling someone through a time portal from 2000 yrs ago and putting them right there. And then how they would try to describe it to everyone when they went back.
Love you boys ❤ and sorry i could not make it 😢 But i have tickets to MONDGREEN and im positive i oicked the best shows of what will be an amazing summer tour 2024
I believe’95 going into middle school. You had already had an understanding of who I was/am! Military combat is not the answer. I miss every single one of you! Please do not! I am still chill! I do not know how to explain! But if you can dig I can dig brother bear! Life’s Grand! See you sooner than later! Love all of you!
@@PeterByker that’s the public address system. the amps on stage actually amplify the instruments. they don’t need to be right behind them tho or present at all necessarily, lots of options and workarounds available.
It has directional sound. Every seat has speakers pointed just at the seats. It’s incredible. It’s like they took the Grateful Dead Wallace sound made it bigger and then curved it so every speaker it going right to the individual
Ive only watched the freebies, but are the graphics ever interactive with the band's playing? Bathtub Gin - the end sounded like they were playing for a cue, and blew it...and the animations ran out before the song ended?
This venue may be one of those that only works in PERSON YOU have to be there because if you look at a screen shot of a show from any other show it looks epic but this just looks cheesy and that is strange because they spent a ton of money on this venue Had to be there to get it I guess
I agree - their use of it seems underwhelming from the TV angle. Its like 1 screen saver per song. I keep waiting for something to actually happen. Id feel distracted.
Some people play faster, do a bunch of tapping...etc. that's great, and Fun..I am talking about someone that can COMPOSE like any and all of the GREATS...but that symphony is at his fingertips...
Those people are............correct and I hate to admit it. If you thought there was ANY band that could maximize the potential of the sphere it would be Phish.
@@meltingface2558 yes i don't disagree, but the ad nauseum comments are getting annoying. also, developing imagery that can be flexible to lengthy improvisations is a unique challenge. other bands don't have to deal with this. what would have been better?
Is phish dead? Come on! I was a ‘97 child. I’ve kept going even being in the USMC…! Weird how people don’t like me, weird…? Huh! I worked every night to make sure you were cool! I miss mi days on the past that made us all cool! I love all of you!
Second set night 2 I realize sphere is a gimmick. I was there for the band not a cool screen. I don’t need the visuals on bicycle day! Sick second set night 2!
You get a gold star for this comment. For real, I'm soooooooooo tired of people's opinions, comments,wishes and what THEY think the professionals should or should not be doing. Music and art are subjective. It's ok not to like something. There is so much shit out there, like you said, you ain't feelin it, change the frickin channel. It's that easy. Just cause I don't line something doesn't mean I need the world to hear about it.
Phish should have hired whoever did U2s Sphere shows...this is not that impressive. Not using the tech to its best. I know Phish isn't a "stage show" band - but look how well U2 presents compared to these silly screen saver graphics.
@@fals_one Ive decided it was really just the uninteresting LIVE PHISH productions. The fan videos tell the story much better. I have a blender on order.
