Anyone going to be in Virginia this weekend?
not I said the one eyed fly.
i havent purchased a single ticket for this tour.
well you and I are in opposite situations robert... :)
Dont get me wrong though. I wanted to go on the whole tour.
Right now Iam just too damned busy with my own band and life. I was fortunate to see many many many shows and Ill always treasure the craziness.
Maybe Ill catch one later this summer or something after the new record comes out. It was just impossible to go out on the road with the ticket prices that high knowing full well they were playing stuff Id heard 8 million times. I guess if Id gotten tickets at face value Id of been there. But ebay prices to hear fluffhead again just doesnt work for me right now. Maybe in a couple months. I know they are really tight right now and are going to shred, but if I dont handle my shit, than I wouldnt probably have much fun anyway.
To all those in hampton BE CAREFUL johnny law dog has been there for a week prepping for the phandom. Id bring whatever party favors float your boat yourselves and do no phish in the lot. Undercovers are going to have a field day with the trustafarians this time around.
I wish I was there. Glenn asked me not to say anything until today but along with the Ross comp, Trey also brought back the two 2x12 cabs that Paul built and the old messa boogie mkIII. I can't wait to here the sbds
really, thats interesting... maybe they are actually trying to get back to pre- hiatus stuff... considering they just opened a show with fluffhead
They also have the stage setup old school style

I thought Farmhouse was a let down personally. Awesome setlist but that song doesnt need to be played the first set back... but I guess the NICU, horn, rift makes up for it :)
i don't understand them playing farmhouse either in this set. I would have gone to get another drink. I think they also sound checked rift. i love that song.

looks like everything behind him is now just amps and cabs. He moved his effects rack to the side like he had back in '95.

Tweezer start up the second set.... interesting
Can anyone get a shot of treys floor setup? Maybe someone in the back or side view. This is going to be interesting to see what this sounds like.
I found a markIII for $750 the other day is that a good deal?
I was going to ask Glenn to see if Brian would give us some pics. That seems like a fair price. what shape is it in? when I found out he was bringing it back i made several posts here with links to them on ebay. I wanted to tell you guys but Glenn asked that I wait till today.
I wonder what is with the "Start Stop and Restart " for Yem
a tease do you think, or did they muff the begining
Sounds good. I found one in great shape but I would then have to buy a cab. SOB I just got a deluxe that has a crappy resale value anyway. Is the Mark III sound that much better? I will guess it does.
Thanks for the info. Very interested to see the floor setup. Did he bring back the older doc too or still the newer one?
Been watching the Clifford DVDs and the older three pickup version is used alot but with a cover over the single coil.
Is it time to get some sleep yet??? I am too excited and I am not even there.
What site is everyone getting updates at? I need to find a better one.
I have a buddy that is there that keeps texting me stuff... also i just phish.com the info.
i'm getting texts too but if you can get on, www.phnatasytour.com, www.teampanic.org or wwww.panicfreaks.org will have the setlists.

looks like the latest doc. the mesa will break up quite a bit more then a fender. Go listen to any '91-'93 phish. this i what i expect his tone to sound like.

i'm also interested in knowing how he has his cabs hooked up. He has a total of 3 and just the mesa pushing them. Looks like mics are on all 3 cabs
Thanks, I imagine its time to call it a night.
Will go try the Mesa tomorrow. I am just curious now. Don't need it just curious.
Thanks for the conversation.
Good night to all.
dude our boys are back! :D
well i downloaded the first set. absolutely incredible. iam ordering tickets to knoxvegas tomorrow
awesome to hear them again... the problem there might not be enough songs by the time i get there on sunday night haha ;)
they are on track to play 81 songs in 3 nights
So what are they going to open up with tonight... a little gentleman's bet perhaps?
YAY!
The boyz delivered! What an ambitoius first set, and I'd say they nailed most of it!
Those are amazing pics you got there Strangedesign! You must have a fancy camera!
I think they'll bring the heavy funk tonight...Free, Ghost, Momma, Meatstick something of that order. Mike and Page are rippig! Trey is doin' it, and Fish I couldn't really hear over the other gus. Hope new sound dude turns him up.
You'll find me spinning by the soundboard. Tommy bahama shirt. Hope to see you!
almost time to wander down, what a dream come tue.
as far as what I hope they are going to play. well, my username says it all. I want a Cavern Opener, Mango Song, the bustout would be a Manteca jam in something else. Stash was a treat.
Peace
