Phish Sound checks??

Helping Friendly · June 29, 2014, 11:12:09 PM

I have been digging sound checks recently and was wondering if any of us have a big collection of them? Or is there a possible sound check collection out there? I really enjoy the listen because they are always so clear and more organic sounding with out a huge audience there. The sound just bounces off the walls better and there is no crowd noise, just Phish. It is also fun to get behind the scenes for a minute and hear how this incredible band well... "sound checks" I also love to compare my boogie to Treys and you can really hear it in raw form on a good sound check recording.
I can post what I got if others will post theirs.. Lets do this!

You need to make an account and them PM the guy who runs it (who happens to be a good friend of mine), and you get in. It's a little music sharing community and the people there have a bunch of cool, rare things you can check out. I'd check there. Also on .net, PT, and all the online Phansites.

You go to his page (reddit.com/u/kikikza) and click the 'Send a Message' button. There's no formal application process or anything like that, just ask to be let in to boardtrades and he'll let you in.

There is also a link to soundchecks at phishows.com. Not a ton, but a few high quality checks.

And for the best sound quality you can find the sound checks included in the Ventura package and the island tour are really good. I love soundchecks too and the crispness and clarity of treys tone cannot be beat.
