Re: Who will be the next Phish?

agreed, but i think (assume) the OP's question was geared more toward the "full time touring band that had a huge devoted following [of hippies]" and i would also probably add the spontaneous setlists and open encouragement of a devoted taping/trading community.

Yes, I was thinking along the lines of:
Dead --> Phish --> ????
Not that the Dead or Phish had similar styles or the next band needs too either, but they definitely created similar environments.

well, the band might just be out there. Phish started coming to prominance while the dead were playing. Moe has their own festival in upstate NY in early sept./late august every year. Only time will really tell, it'll happen again, and I just hope that I go to the early shows of whatever group if is since I never had the chance to go to a dead show, and crammed a lot of phish in since I started going to shows in 97, but didn't really start going to lots of shows until 99/00
