Velvet Posted November 26, 2001 Report Share Posted November 26, 2001 I just picked up a guitar magazine with Trey in it. Now, I might be reading a bit between the lines here, but...Q: How has your playing changed as a result of the Oysterhead experience? A: I want to leave enough space so you can catch their incredible drumming and bass playing.Hmmm...is Trey saying he has a problem with Mike and Fishman's playing? I've read a Trey interview before where he said that the band had to learn to play tempo fluxuations because Fishman can't keep the tempo steady. Plus it's weird that Trey got together with Andy Summers, who never heard of either Trey or Les before, and who had never played a song more than four minutes long. (Don't get me wrong, I think Andy rocks)In this interview, Trey also says, "If I start playing with Phish again, I want to come back with a whole bunch of new ideas, thus making Phish much better."Cool Trey, when? I think it's time we all stopped holding our breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Summers played guitar with The Police.In this interview, Trey also says, "If I start playing with Phish again, I want to come back with a whole bunch of new ideas, thus making Phish much better." Cool Trey, when? I think it's time we all stopped holding our breath.I'm of the opinion it will be many years before Phish regroups. I keep up with all the recent interviews and - reading between the lines - my speculation is that there are some wounds that have to heal and major issues to be addressed before those four guys hit the road again.Just my armchair speculation.

treyter Posted November 26, 2001 Report Share Posted November 26, 2001 On the HBO special on Oysterhead, Trey call Stewart Copeland the best drummer in the world... We all know that Air Gordon kicks Les's ass all over the place though. My bet for Phish again is NYE2004. We should get a pool going... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Velvet Posted November 26, 2001 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2001 Yeah, I uh, I mean um, I spilled Hawaiian Punch on my keyboard and every time I type in Stewart Copeland Andy Summers comes up. Okay, I'm way lame, the Police are my fave rock band and I even own Andy Summers solo albums and I've seen Mr. Sting about seven times (though not on purpose). As a penance for my error, I've cut off my arm. Anyone got a band-Aid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Velvet Posted November 26, 2001 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2001 Y'know, even as a little kid I was aware that six million dollars was a steal for all those bionics that Steve Austin had. The only Prosthetic Appendage Advantage© I can afford now are the belt sander or the Paul Reubens Squish'm Grip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What with inflation being what it is, the only Prosthetic Appendage Advantage© parts I can afford are the belt sander or the Paul Reubens Squish'm Grip. I'm getting depressed and light-headed.

Davey Boy 2.0 Posted November 27, 2001 Report Share Posted November 27, 2001 Uummmmm: "We all know that Air Gordon kicks Les's ass all over the place though."I love that weirdo Gordon, BUT I'm not so sure about that one, Treyter. Les is freaking awesome, you cannot deny that. My view is that it would be a close call between the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treyter Posted November 27, 2001 Report Share Posted November 27, 2001 i don't know Barrett...I'm not saying that Les doesn't kick ass...I'm just saying that Les just might kick a little les ass than the robot IMO who cares anyways...I can say with certainty that Phil makes them both look silly without even trying to.

Spliff Posted November 27, 2001 Report Share Posted November 27, 2001 The kid who is a triple P (Phil, phish, primus) listener on his headphones making synthesized music is going to kick all their asses.
