Phish- Celebrating 30 years

Tough to believe they've been around for 30 years. I remember at one time they were the "other" jam band for many, including myself. Was reading a recent interview with Trey and he feels they are at the top of their game in 2013. After seeing them on their last two tours its tough to argue:


It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

Gosh that makes me feel old. Wow. Many a good time at shows for many years but given my two children at home I haven't found the time for the last couple tours, this makes me really want to try to get to one. Didn't start seeing them until '94 so missed a lot of early magic and even now miss some of the gimic / just a bunch of dorks at a show fun times but can't argue the evolution of the tunes.

Nice I missed em this summer. Went to the tour opener last year at the DCU it was an awesome show. One of my favorites in a long time.

I saw them for the first time in 91 at the Worcester Auditorium, they did New Years there until they outgrew it. I was 16 didn't miss another NYE show until 96. I hate MSG too many bad experiences.

Opening night last year at DCU raged. Only one of their shows last year I attended but caught a good one no doubt.

I know some look down on it, but I love the Hoist album too.

Me too, but like Rift a lot also. Not jammed out as much as Junta, but its kind of freaky like Junta

Hoist rocks too.

Hoist and Rift are my favorite albums as well, but I will listen to Junta just for Divided Sky.

Boge will be there, Mike.
