Gone Phishin?

It doesn't matter who you think you are or where you think you're from. If you're ever presented with the opportunity to go to a Phish concert, it's worth it
It's a bit ironic how often people write it off as "just another over-glorified jam band", without ever having experienced what it has to offer for themselves.
An old friend of mine who mainly only listens to electronic music described his experience with a Phish concert as, "The best human achievement ever"
Check out Phish's tour date stuff, if they're near you then see them. If they're not near you, go out of your way to see them anyway
Good luck

I'd like to bump this thread to say I still stand by everything I said here, and that me and my friend got tickets to see these guys again on the 28th.
Discuss Phish, because they fuckin' rule 
They weave eternal gladness into the fabrics of ur soul

I have a friend who is the most die-hard Phish fan I've ever seen. He's been to multiple concerts and is actually somewhat intelligent when it comes to music.
I also am very into music (being a musician) but I have trouble getting into their music. They are technically skilled as hell but their songs just don't excite me.. I also can't take the music seriously with the vocals. Now I know this music isn't intended to be taken seriously but they don't have the raw emotion that the greatest bands have in my opinion.

I've seen plenty of live videos but I've never physically been to a concert. If it's physically being there that is the selling point then it's not to the music's credit, but the crowd and atmosphere. While it may be fun to drop acid and hang with a bunch of festival goers, the music should grab me enough to make me love the band for the sake of the sound.

I think this is a false statement personally

You have to experience a concert in person to be forced to like them, because the angelic radiations from the cosmic heavens manifest themselves through their music and groove eternal gladness into your soul
This is one of my personal favorites though

jam bands are just so bad

This one my favorite phish songs ever. Notice how they are playing in the first few minutes then the best part is like 5:37-6:57.

Listening to Farmhouse studio album right now. I've always really liked it. It's got a nice vibe

Why bump this now, the tour's over besides the NYE shows. I love Farmhouse, I wish Trey kept it up with the looping.
To understand Phish, one must see them live, and yes you must be high on drugs.

I'd rather see Justin Bieber on acid.... Actually, that would be horrifying and I may end up permanently scarred.

I've been to more Phish shows sober than I have high, and I have just as much fun/appreciation of the music. You don't need to be on drugs to appreciate Phish. Some people get them & others don't. Different strokes & all that. Personally Phish takes me places that no one else can, no drugs required.
