i'm so happy(phish tickets)

Yesterday i got finally got a phish ticket for the greensboro show, after searching ever since they sold out, while trying my best to avoid scalpers at all costs.
It seems this friend of a friend of mine that i sold tickets to for the bonnaroo festival last year had a shit load of extra tickets to phish! I hadn't seen him since the festival until yesterday, when we went by his new place in the city. He sold us 3 tickets for face value, and he owed me fifty bucks so i got a phish ticket and settled a debt at the same time! It was a pretty sweet day.
Just a happy story about me beating the ticket scalpers That's the way the story should always be too! Jamband fans need a underground ticket trading system of some sort with honest people that buy extra tickets to help out fellow fans rather than to rip people off. That would be a great way to shut out the scalpers.
So who else is going to the show in greensboro?? Theres about 30 people i know just from my town that are going. It's gonna be a true caravan i hope. Everyone here ordered theirs in the lottery and got them, everyone except me! i was unlucky, but it doesnt really matter i suppose, cuz i'm going anyway

Phish is a great band.. I think they're pretty talented as musicians. The thing I don't like about them is their following.. That's not their fault though.
I just don't like all the wannabe neo-hippies that worship them. I'm sorry if that doesn't sound right to you, but in my experience they have always been ignorant, dumb, and disrespectful to psychedelic substances, which pisses me off the most.
But I am also sure there are alot of cool people that like Phish. I wouldn't mind seeing one of their shows, it would be a great time.
Congradulations on getting the tickets.

yes it is gonna be a good show. Not only because i haven't seen phish since NYE 2000, but also because i've always had this strange desire to see phish indoors. I don't really know why, i just think it would make the light show rock even more than it already does. heh
As i recall, from the older threads about people getting tickets, theres alot of people from the boards that are going to show. Which i think is pretty cool. It might even be a good place for a shroomery meet, cept for the fact that everyone thats going seems to already be going with 10+ people to begin with. So my guess is people are gonna be doing there own thing with their friends that night.
PhishCubes: heheh...now i feel like a dope for never checking out jamband.coms forums before now...Oh well, it's still good to know for next time i guess.
And for the record, i don't follow around phish and i don't "worship" them. I don't even really consider myself part of that scene actually...but a good portion of my friends might be classified as hippies i guess.
I just like the music. It's great music, and thats what i'm intrested in. I will say this though. theres definetly gonna be some really drugged out hippies there(it IS a phish show) but for the most part the people are pretty level headed and overall pretty cool. Theres always a good vibe at a phish show once the music starts playing, and you can meet some pretty cool people at them if you try a little.
Phish shows are really great though. They are really some of the best i've seen. The musics great and the light shows are truely a sight to be seen. they're the best light shows i've ever seen anyway.
