so who is going to see phish?

[Whiteroom_Guardian]

Yup, MPP1 was kinda shitty. A couple moments, but overall pretty darn sloppy and low energy.

It sucks because on paper, that second set is perfect. Least inspired Sand I’ve ever heard. The Mercury had some heat on the last jam section. But it was a lackluster night overall.

[Whiteroom_Guardian]

Much better tonight so far!

[St. Jerry]

Yup a solid phish show tonight. B+/A-

[JahGuide]

CurveBall countdown

[buttahflake]

Only caught the first set, it was the heater I was looking for. Fast as fuck llama opener, mid-set Tweezer>Gin, The Curtain>With, smoking hot, type 1 Chalkdust. In the running for best first set of tour.

big THANKYOU to bobby stainless for the dicks ticket hookup.

[Whiteroom_Guardian]

Yup, well done last night. My only gripe is that trey is fucking around with his effects too much. That good chalkdust could have been alot better if he wasn't going super ADD and changing effects every 30 seconds.

Also, it's the anniversary of the best Gumbo ever.

Gonna have to disagree. 9-14-99 is the best gumbo ever, but that’s just my opinion, I could be wrong

No problem bud. Hoping for a good run.

We'll meet up for a beer.

I've been listening to the last 8 years of Dick's for research purposes.

[stapes]

You’re both wrong ;-)

7/22/03 first set heater is the best.

Getting excited for Dicks. Let’s do it again.

Wow. I have to go back and re-listen. I was at that show and do not remember the 18 minute Gumbo!!! I guess I was having too much fun that summer.


Also, it's gonna be um.....damp..... at Watkins this weekend. Flying into Buffalo early Friday AM.

[stapes]

Yea, might be the most underrated version too! I’ll never forget right where I was.

Did PHX->DC then IT that summer. Oh to be young with no responsibilities. Although still kinda bummed I missed Starlake.

Ouch on missing Starlake!!! That was a special fucking night.

I did Alpine through IT. It was like 8500 miles in my '98 Ford Exploder. What a fucking time that was.

Yes. Contaminated water from the flooding, probably an overwhelmed waste water plant too

A STATEMENT FROM PHISH

Dear friends, our Phish family..

The four of us are writing this from directly behind the stage at Watkins Glen. We were about to walk onstage only moments ago for our traditional soundcheck jam for Curveball when we were told the heartbreaking news that due to the unsafe water conditions in the Village of Watkins Glen, our beloved festival is being canceled.

We are still in shock. The entire site is already set up and ready to go after literally months of work by our beloved hardworking crew, many of whom have been here for weeks. Our families are here, our gear is set, our tents are up. We keep waiting for someone to come over and tell us that there is a solution, and that the festival can go on. Unfortunately, it is not possible.

We are so terribly sorry for the inconvenience that this is causing so many of you. We hope from the bottoms of our hearts that at the very least this news will reach you before too much disruption takes place in your personal lives. We know that people traveled far, at great expense. We understand that people are missing work, and changing their schedules around.. we wish so much that there was some way that this wasn’t happening.

This summer has been absolutely joyous, with each gig building on the previous one, and we were all buzzing with excitement about Curveball. Please accept our deepest apologies for the disruption that this has caused all of you.. We wish there was something else we could say.

Thank you all from the depths of our souls for the joy that you continue to share with us every night. This has been the greatest summer we can remember.

Travel safe and know that we are as heartbroken as all of you. We are standing back here behind the stage, at our party that we’ve been planning for over a year, and we have just told that it won’t happen. There’s just nothing we can do.

Thank you all for your understanding.

With Love,
Phish

[Fritz]

Ouch

Now THAT'S a CURVEBALL!

Seriously, that just sucks. I feel bad for anybody that was going.
Buy your Dick's tickets now, if you haven't already.

[t-the-east]

Insane. 100,000 people from all over the country, packed for 4 days of camping. They now all have to leave by noon tomorrow. One of my employees is there, said the vibe ain’t too great...

[buttahflake]

It’s more like 40,000 people, but yeah it sucks. My buddy just texted and said they are already breaking down the stage. He wants to get out now, the vibe is dark.
