I'm going to the 20th Anniversary Phish concert tonight in Boston
Edited on Tue Dec-02-03 04:51 PM by WilliamPitt
Amazing that they've been around for 20 years. This was a haaaaaaaaaaaard ticket to get, and the rumblings out of last night's show in Albany suggest a face-melting Phish extravaganza tonight.

Yeah, baby. :hippie:

Edited for dumb spelling. :)

20. Well....I think Creed blows major chunks
Edited on Tue Dec-02-03 05:01 PM by khephra
That's how much I dislike Phish. I'd rather see Creed than Phish.

;-)

Then again, if i were you, I'd take my Phish tickets to the local Phish campground and trade them in for some serious errrr...relaxers. That's one thing I always liked about Phish coming to town--the drugs were alway great for the next month or so.


Actually, I'm happy you're going. We all can't have the same tastes in anything. After all...we all can't have my high grade taste for bands like Tool, Marilyn Manson, Devo and Sonic Youth. ;-)

8. Wow, I feel old now.
I remember when they were just a bunch of guys from Vermont playing club gigs. I saw them for the first time in '86 at Tipitina's in New Orleans. I guess that is almost twenty years, but it sure doesn't seem that long ago.

Have fun. I'm very jealous of you.

10. So, what did you have to do
to score the tickets? Inquiring minds want to know.

Have fun!

25. Three weeks in my bed...
I've checked the setlists religiously the last few nights. They got a lot of dreck out of the way on Saturday, played an insane show last night (accompanied by a second guitar player who was with the band way back in the day who wrote 'Possum' and a bunch of older stuff, which they played) in Albany. Still no YEM, though. Tonight's the night.
