skelter Posted December 6, 2009 Report Share Posted December 6, 2009 It's been the opener at 4 shows this fall, plus 2nd set on the last night of 8. That's all I have to say about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skelter Posted December 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2009 I'm not a complainer about Phish ... very rarely apart from a small selections of songs I don't care for. Just pointing out a fact. For complaints, see PT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaybone Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 I could hear Bag at every show and not complain.Love that tune and it kicks the party off proper!I guess if I actually did entire tours, it might get old, but I'm happy seeing one on every run of shows I hit.

Hartamophone Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 I guess if I actually did entire tours, it might get old, but I'm happy seeing one on every run of shows I hit.Right, and I think people sometimes forget that in general Phish has never sought to play shows that pander to people who do entire tours, at least not in terms of song selection. Sure they mix things up from night to night, but it always bugs me when folks bitch about seeing too many of a particular song too much when they've done an entire tour. You've just seen the band 20 times in one month, brah, if you don't want repeats you're going to have to cut back.(Not that I'm saying that you fall into that category, jaybone).

KarinGarage Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 this summer, while going to the 4 shows at red rocks, a neighbor asked me, "so you're going to see the same band four nights in a row?" I had to explain to him that, for the most part, the setlists are different, unlike the majority of touring bands that just play the same setlist every night in a different city. so, hearing one song a few too many times should be a forgivable faux pau (sp?)PS. i'm drunk and this post has required a lot of puctuational editing... sorry if I've missed any flubs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-towns Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 I heard Trey was hooked on gambling now and he's fixing the line on first set openers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwa. Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 The only way to really (re)learn a song is to play it repeatedly. In listening to the tour from the last year I noticed a huge improvement in Possum....one of their most played songs since they've returned.perhaps this is their motivation.

Northern Wish Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 Do you remember those two douchebags that we ran into waaayyy too late in the hotel parking lot:"Fuck this, want my tickets? I am flying home to the east coast and hopping on Phil tour!"I've never laughed so hard in the face of a young wook in all of my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
