whats the difference between a phish head and alphabet soup?

They both have E, K, and L in them, but the alphabet soup isnt retarded.

I'll call myself out, though, it should be the other way around I think.... He's mistaking the Disco Biscuits for Phish? Ahhhh you get the point.

Phish people! If you were to recommend 1 show to download to get a guy into the band, what would it be. I want to start listening to them, but have no idea where to begin.

clearly the answer is go buy A Live One (their first live album release - never can go wrong starting there).

although if you really want to get into Phish, this is what i recommend. first, buy tickets to a show this upcoming summer. Now that you have said tickets, download the studio albums "The Story of the Ghost," "Hoist," and "A Picture of Nectar." You can download others (they are all great), but listen to each of these a few times. They are only like 45 minutes a piece. Stick them on your iPod, listen to them in the car, whatever. I'm sure you will like them, but I'm also sure you'll be left kind of confused. They won't really be like anything you've ever heard, and your immediate reaction might be to dismiss many of the songs.

Then, when you go to the concert, you'll already know the backbone of a decent swath of their "regulars." then, 3 and a half hours later, all your questions will be answered.

A month after the concert experience, your computer will have anywhere between 2-5 gigs of Phish downloaded to it.

Just check the etree database against whats uploaded, occasionally I find a show missing a track or something.


I still tend to use Dreamingtree.org a lot more.


Also if you are looking for some... less legitimate tapes (IEM"s, unreleased post-95 SBD's etc.) I have quite a few and could always old school B&P them for ya.

Just don't reveal that you get a boner for Dave Matthews. That site will tear you to shreds.

Had a choice between Phish at the DCU Center or Gathering of the Vibes in CT for 4 days with Phil Lesh, Bob Weir and many other bands.

Had to pick Vibes... Phish next year perhaps?
