I miss the road


The Chameleon

Recommended Posts

Just a post to say I'm sitting at work listening to a stellar Phish show from 1995 and I'm thinking back to then when I was 18/19 and just getting into Phish and has seen the Dead a bunch of times. Back then the road seemed endless and I couldn't wait to make plans for more shows.

I remember being truly excited to be a part of the Phish/GD magic and felt at home on tour.

I recall how rich the traveling experience was from show to show. I can also recall the joy of seeing rare songs in a setlist, at a concert that I attended.

I remember those times (1994-1999) felt special.

Usually it would be this time of year where me and friends would do a little "winter run" of some shows in upstate NY or beyond....

Now I feel sad that, that excitement is gone, and those experiences put on hold.....nothing seems so special anymore.

I long to be excited, about a band/music to the degree that I will drop everything and loose my self on tour in a haze of ticketstubs, Jagermiester, cheap hotels, truck stops and Nitrous...

"Who's got my heady winter tour"....

that is all.....just had to get that out....

widespread panic tour. that is all.

:)

Sadly I used to like Panic but I really don't like the direction they've taken musically of late. Really it all fell apart for me when Hausser died.

I think the only band right now that I'd follow would be WEEN.

They are due for a Canadian date anytime now....
