What do you guys think about PHISH?

BinFrog

Plus: they are a band that pretty much hits up ever genre you can think of. To anyone who says "I hate them" - You can give me a list of bands you like and I can probably find SOMETHING you'll probably enjoy. the caveat being you have to try and listen with an open mind.

Don't base your hatred on the perceived "scene". The music is what matters. When Phish does/did what they do best - no-one has EVER done it as well. In my opinion, of course.

My favorite band. Pearl Jam is #2. cough cough don't tell anyone.

Great band - they're on my bucketlist. "Chalkdust Torture" is awesome

Love them and the entire experience.

They push the music pretty far and can take songs to different levels.
I wish PJ would do this more often. "Of the Earth" is a taste of this free wheeling idea.

Also, every ticket to a show is a free download of that show. Brilliant!
Webcasts of many live shows to allow fans who can't make the show part of the experience.
I wish 10c could/would do that.

Quite often, Jam On plays mostly new stuff. You gotta dig deeper. Yes, sometimes they play a real true epic jam 9I heard Bathtub Gin from The Great Went a few times on there), but most of the stuff they play is from more recent shows. Mostly good stuff, but not mind-blowing.

HELL YES!!! WENT GIN!!!!

Love the fact that I can buy a live show for $15 bucks and sit on my couch and RAWK OUT!!!

I fell in love with the Phish and WSP after PJ quit touring the Midwest......I can see them 5-10 times a year without having to book plane tickets to South America......Last PJ show I saw was ST Louis VFC and before that Dallas Tx the previous year. The closest theyve been since is KC......couldnt make that show cause of work......After seeing these two bands, I hear PJ differently.....I like it.
I'm almost glad PJ quit the Midwest....horizions expanded.(cant believe I just wrote that) This being said, My Wife and I get to catch Ed Sunday in Tulsa!!!!....We are fired up, Ill prob shed tears of joy like I did at my first PJ show.
My only request would be "Man of the Hour"
Phish should cover "You Are" or "No Way"

Love Phish, almost as much as PJ :shh: ...........

It's much better listening to them playing " live" music for sure. Try listening to Live phish radio streamed from phish.com. You may also be able to download the free Live Bait shows from the site if you register. It's also much, much better experiencing them live. The shows are great (they have lots of fun on stage) & the fans can be quite the entertainers too :crazy:, which "enhances" the whole experience .

My favorite live songs now in no particular order other than # 1, like PJ they change constantly.

Divided Sky ( my # 1 )
Stash
Maze
Weekapaug Groove
Chalk Dust Torture
NICU
Roggae
Character Zero
Reba
And for some "Latin flavor".......The Landlady

And Phan favorite jams including mine:

Bath Tub Gin
Tweezer
Wilson
David Bowe
Harry Hood
You Enjoy Myself
Ghost

Now You Enjoy Yourself & go to a Phish show

Thread has legs.

This makes me happy.

Pearl Jam was my first music love. Phish was my second.

I loath stereotyping, esp in music.

They are my favorite band.
