  1. I love this band and the new album is fantastic. Their old stuff is wicked too. Great when you feel like getting a little dirty blues into your soul...
  2. Hey are you going to burning man... Best jamband song ever? I think so...
  3. wow other that pusa and fishbone (both had their last hit in like 1992) i havn't even heard of those bands. They need at least an umphrey's of bisco to make people go see that. I saw PUSA years ago and they put on a killer show though.
  4. Original Boardwalk Style, a live album from Trey Anastasio and the Undectet, will be released on June 10th by Anastasio's Rubber Jungle Records. Proceeds from the sale of the album will benefit the Seven Below Arts Initiative, established to foster artistic development and support arts education in the state of Vermont. The program offers residencies for visual artists at The Barn, a uniquely restored property on 65 acres in Vermont that previously served as the recording studio for Phish, Anastasio and many others. The album was recorded at the House of Blues in Atlantic City, NJ on December 30th and 31st of 2006, coming at the end of the band's tour - and just 15 days after Anastasio's much-publicized arrest in New York. With his trial looming, the future was uncertain - and he knew these shows were likely to be the last he would play for a long time. The raw, emotional energy permeated the set as the composer/vocalist/guitarist led The Undectet - comprised of Tony Hall (bass, vocals), Ray Paczkowski (keyboards), Jeff Sipe (drums), Christina Durfee (vocals, synthesizer), Jennifer Hartswick (vocals, trumpet), Peter Apfelbaum (saxophone, flute), Russell Remington (saxophone, flute), Jeff Cressman (trombone), Dave Grippo (saxophone) and Cyro Baptista (percussion) - through electrifying big band arrangements of his classic songs, replete with big horns and dazzling Brazilian percussive stylings. The shows came at a turning point in Anastasio's life. The energy is palpable, and the songs explosive. The events of the previous weeks give the music an added depth, noticeable in the bluesy guitar of "Plasma," or as the New Year's countdown approaches during "Mr. Completely." The night proved to be one of transcendence, apparent in the crowd's intense reaction and the cohesive sound of the band onstage. This alchemy imbues "Drifting" with fresh meaning - "I've been drifting/for years at sea/But now, you've come along/to rescue me" The shows arguably contained some of the best guitar playing of Trey's career. Original Boardwalk Style will be available in CD and double-gatefold LP configurations at Anastasio's online store (http://treyanastasio.shop.musictoday.com/). Digital audio downloads (in both MP3 and FLAC formats) will be sold at http://www.livephish.com. Fans can pre-order the album in their preferred format beginning today at both sites. All pre-orders will automatically be entered to win a print - signed by esteemed photographer Jeff Kravitz and Anastasio - of the band on stage at the House of Blues. Color corrected by Jennifer Brown, it will be framed in barn board crafted by Lars Fisk, a creative contributor to The Barn's Artist-in-Residence program. The photo will be utilized in the album's packaging. Ten runners-up will receive autographed copies of the vinyl.

  5. I like this part... RR: Your relationship with everyone in Phish is still pretty solid, right? I just got off the phone with Trey, two days ago, talking about the future. He’s got some big plans. Hopefully, they’ll all come to fruition and we’ll be able to do some cool things out there. It’s kind of interesting having to look at my schedule to see if I can fit Trey in. (laughter) That’s been a really funny little joke. Luckily, I am able to fit him in, which is good. (laughter) Like I said before, I was able to squeeze in Trey’s possible upcoming projects—I’m not exactly sure what he is doing—but there is some kind of timeframe, I think.
  6. ah he's gone, alas you were not meant to meet...
  7. New Denver eh, wow havn't head that in a while. Do you a guy that lived there named John Kilfoyle? I figure with a population of 600 maybe you do...
  8. Oh they are amazing, there is this one where I'm riding a white stallion on the beach......
  9. :laugh: I have no idea if that entire thing is real or is supposed to be in purple font but its damn funny...

  11. I don't dance. I play guitar though. Sign: Pisces Turn ons: Green plastic plates Turn offs: Rude people and having to touch anything on public tranit. Future goals: I'd like to be the president of Canada and bring world peace.
  12. Last week at disneyland with my daugter My Dog and I... My wife and I, you get bonus points by being able to tell me where we are by the date on the photo... My kids and I... Vegas 95 at the Grateful Dead So there ya go, I'm real and not a spy. I'm cute too eh.
  13. I know internet rumors/storys from a new guy don't hold much weight but I have a freind that knows a good friend of Mike Gordon and he informs me that Mike is 1. getting married this month and 2. is in post production of a new album he recorded with Steve Kimock, Trey Anastasio and Bill Kruitzman (sorry I have no idea how to spell his name but you know,the drummer from the Dead) and it should be out soon. He also told me that there were tentative plans for Phish to get back together but they reconsidered. They want everyone one in the band "healty" first so the tour would be successful. Until all 4 are clean they're staying broken up... Just some stuff to look foreward to and think about.
  14. Port Moody isn't made up but it sure is beautiful. I'd link a fancy map but I don't want to.
  15. I'm actually new here, not someone pretending to be a newcomer. I can post a picture or something if you want. No nudes though, I'll save those for my 6 month aniversary here...
