edger Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Ha! Actually this past summer I thought Phil's vocals sounded better than I've ever heard him. Hope Mike's "laryngitis" clears soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booche Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 Sadly, I am old and jaded and quite convinced what my reaction would have been had I been in attendance: ... but let the record show that I think what they did is pretty dang cool....hahaha, I see what I did there....

fluffhead77 Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 Excellent??? If by excellent you mean another foray into displaying their recent ineptitude to write a great song, then yes, it was excellently outstanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fluffhead77 Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 There were a couple of tracks that were listenable, I'll concede that, but overall, atrocious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peipunk Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 Phish is my favorite band. I love Phish with every ounce of my being, and nothing will ever be able to approach the feeling of being at those shows I was at from the Great Went to Big Cypress. I still would probably rather be at a Phish show than just about any other show. But I can't dig too much on the new tunes. Ocelot and Alaska are the only 3.0 songs that I genuinely enjoy. My main problems are: a) Trey's guitar tone; what's with the treble, rebel? Gone are the liquid days of the hose. And would it kill you to throw a spacey loop out every once in a while for old times sakes? Vocals are cringe, brah. Lyrics and execution. This is why people new to Phish think I/we am/are barking mad for liking this band. For serious. I remember playing Rift to a music teacher friend of mine back in 96 or so and him saying then "I just can't get past the Kermit the Frog vocals". That was a studio album! And a pretty cool one from when they were singing pretty good! Things have deteriorated from there. Phish is my favorite band! And I hope they keep playing for a long time. But yes, I was horrified last night. I feel sad saying that. I hope they are having fun though. I am going to listen to last night again and give it a fair shake. No matter what I'll keep doing couch tour and hopefully seeing a show every year or so if they tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewRider Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 I'm just glad they didn't ruin Huey Lewis & The News "Sports" like they ruined "Exile" for me. phew... Phish playing new material. No thanks. I'm glad some enjoy it. I can't remember a song in the last 10 years they've put out that I enjoyed. Maybe I need a new drug. That or I'm aging terribly like Booche :surprise: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, isn't wonderful to be able to express differences in opinion?I watched the webcast and I thoroughly enjoyed the 2nd set. I'm looking forward to rocking to the new songs at the next show I attend. I'll be the one dancing like Abe Vigoda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skelter Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 I think I liked all of them. Fuego, Monica, Wombat will be new crowd favourites for sure.The setlists over the last two years haven't changed very much at all, new material is needed badly.

Northern Wish Posted November 2, 2013 Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 (edited) No matter how good anyone thought it was, or that it actually was - they had to be supremely crestfallen that it wasn't Rock of Ages or Eat a Peach or Lamb Lies Down on Broadway.**boiler is right so I edited.
