There are a lot of people who "don't like" Phish for a lot of reasons. I was once one of them. I remember making fun of my high school peers who were excited about seeing Phish at the Omni on Halloween 1994 (Talking Heads: Remain in the Light). What I would give now to have been at that show!
I'm going to be the anal-retentive Phish fan and correct you by saying it was 1996 when they covered the Talking Heads.
Did I say 94? How'd I screw that up? Thanks for letting everyone know what a moron I am. I hope your cheerios taste funny tomorrow.
Maybe this was posted upthread, but Miner linked to this youtube of 2001 at Hampton today. Pretty fun to watch. I don't think I've ever seen what ck5 does captured so well on video before. Watch it fullscreen in "HD" if you have the bandwidth. Makes me giggle with glee. If you think they aren't playing this Friday latenight, you are wrong.
friday and sunday alike. i will not miss one second of those shows no matter what is going on. we have to secure our spot left of the soundboard early.
It's kind of brilliant really when you think about it. The crowd most likely to be at The Beasties, is the crowd most likely to leave before Phish. Letting the Phish crowd, which was mostly at Byrne, have a pretty even shot at getting a good spot for Phish. I usually Ann Coulter about the schedule, but sometimes something that looked stupid at first starts to make sense.

friday? what is friday?
it's pretty crazy we can talk about these dates just as the day. like instead of three sundays from now on may 31... it's just sunday. sunday some of you will be seeing phish. it's crazy how it has just crept up. it felt like it would never come. too bad i have to wait till next tuesday.
My favorite Phish "musical costume" didn't come on Halloween at all, but rather a few days after Halloween in the year of 98
What a thrill it must've been to be in the crowd for THAT show!
Yes it was blew me away. Total surprise. I was at both the Vegas Halloween show Velvet Underground- Loaded and in Utah for The Dark side of the moon. True DSOTM could be considered to be the sloppiest Halloween played (they did not rehearse it over and over again like the others) it was still pretty great and sandwiched inside Harpua was just very cool.
I was traveling around by myself for about a week before the Vegas show- Yellowstone National park, friends in Montana, hot springs in Idaho and meeting up with a real old friend from CA in Vegas plus about 10 other friends from CO where I was coming from. Noone would come with me to Utah... friend from CA was heading home (driving) other friends from CO were mostly flying home I think 2-3 were driving but not going to Utah. I tried to pursuade most of them no bites. Everyone of those people were kicking themselves in the rear after what happened.
Let me tell you that the show was empty. Whereas the 2 nights before you could not find a tic in Utah tics were on sale at the box office. The venue was probably about 3/4 at most full. I was able to walk down on the floor without a floor tic and get like 20 rows away. weird none wanted to deal with Utah and the no no word laws it seemed. Hell I braved the state (and many others )armed with a bottle of liquid fun which supported me for my whole trip. Had $0 upon arrival in Utah was able to russle up gas and ticket and food money in no time. God what a great trip that was sorry for the ramble but believe me this was the very short version. Had a lot of weird/cool/freaky things happen on that particular journey.

I too am still waiting for my tickets through PTBM. Knoxville is the only show on my order. The email said tix would be mailed 2 weeks before the first show on your order, meaning knoxvilles will be mailed middle of next week, hopefully arriving by next Friday or Saturday
I'll get there man. So is anyone else doing the Pittsburgh show.
ill be at the Pittsburgh show. should be good times. were gonna camp.
so i've been thinking about it and everyone seems to be saying that the Friday latenight show is gonna be the shit. and while i don't disagree i really think were gonna see the greatness from the boys Sunday night. i think that's when the Phishiest of the Phish is gonna shine through. plus after Snoop everyone's gonna be on cloud 9

Snoop Dogg --> Phish will be epic, certainly.
But as Bonnaroo as billed it, this "special late-nigh set" by Phish on Friday is going to be BANANAS! Expect this to be one of the best sets to ever go down on the Farm. Ever. Period.
Phish is going to blow minds and turn heads. How are they just playing the 'Roo for the first time?!

At the very least there will be A cloud after Snoop.
