Yonder and Fishman

Erictw83 · September 04, 2007, 01:15:21 AM

Anyone happen to catch Fishman playing drums with yonder last night at Red Rocks? Fishman played maybe the last 1/3 of the first set, and probably 1/2 the second set with Yonder. The crowd went nuts when he hit the stage. The whole night Fish's kit was looming behind in the darkness just adding to the tension and anticipation. I think the drums fit in really well. For the most part the drums seemed lower in the mix then a typical, which played well since drums are a foreign entity when it comes to bluegrass. They weren't over done or abused. The drums also worked well with the uptempo energy that is bluegrass and yonder jamming. The drums definately filled in a lot of spaces in the music and added a bite and funk to the jamming. All in all i was totally digging it and dancing my ass off...as much as a white boy can anyway.

That's pretty nasty, I'll have to get a copy of that show. Thanks for the headies up.

i just hope fish doesnt become a permanent member, we need him for that phish reunion thats happening...

Yeah the show was really nasty. Of course my opinion of the show may be jaded because i was there. Can't wait to hear the recordings. That was my first Red Rocks show too. Red Rocks is such an awesome place to see a show! I can't wait to catch that phish 3 night stand at Red Rocks on the reunion tour

Bad news man: IF Phish ever gets back together, they won't be playing at Red Rocks - they've been banned. But lucky for you, Denver & Englewood aren't too far away!

why were they banned?

Walker done done · September 05, 2007, 03:58:52 PM

Banned in '95 (or was it '96?) for lots of reasons: a riot, all the drug arrests, tour rats looting the store there, the mess and trash all the tour rats left there. Someone told me they are now allowed back because it's new management, but I haven't confirmed that.

Phish will be back in 2010. Just watch

I bet they are back within the next year. Trey has already said nothing would make him happier then to be back on stage with Phish. He said Mike need to take this entire year off and Page had his tour. Fish has nothing going on. As soon as Trey's treatment is over I bet they all get back together and start jamming with new album and tour to follow...

I agree! I have never really cared much for bisco though when Phish broke up the 1st time Particle followed by Umphreys have been my favorite bands...

i'm a moe.ron they shred like the old trey. no dynamic really but, man chuck garvey can play

Erictw83 · September 07, 2007, 04:03:47 AM

Banned from Red Rocks!!! That is such a blower man. BULLSHIT!! Let 'em play! If thats true I gotta start a petition to let 'em back in.

But yeah, pretty much Trey, mike, paige, and fish have had the summer off. Paige had his tour but it wasn't really extensive, and mostly done with by late june. I'd like to think they have been getting together, getting their heads on straight to make a come back.

Not that Rolling Stone Mag is a reliable source for anything music wise these days, but I read a quote of their's predicting phish would be \"back in 2008, 2010 at the latest\"

alright dont know if anyone heard this, maybe someone could correct me if i am wrong. trey recieved a five year probation, due to his lawyer sucking nuts, but if your on probation, i am sure most phish fans no this, you cant leave the state that you are in, that is why he moved to saratoga so he could stay in New York. becuase he also has a place in New york city. so you are saying if they come back they are only going to do north east shows. HELL YES
