Re: Phish
About 4 years ago my wife was working at a little lunch spot inside Pike Place Market that sells totally awesome fish sandwhiches and chowder (Market Grill). One of the guys there was huge Phish fan and one year had turned Trey onto their grub, which he rightfully loved. So the next time Trey came to Seattle for a tour, he came by to eat. (IIRC it was the first show a new solo tour, maybe 2001?).
About an hour or two after Trey's visit, I was there having lunch and these guys showed up who were obviosly in town to see the show. They are going on and on about Phish, eventually mentioning they had flow FROM BRAZIL to see the show. Jesus Christ. My wife, never one to miss a good opportunity, jumps in with "You know he ate here today". They of course went on and on asking what he ordered, what was he like, etc.. My wife humors them with honest answers for a bit before saying: "Then he said 'I really don't get it why people are so gaga over us. I mean, flying all over the world to see a concert? Those people need to get a life.'" The look on their faces was priceless. I could barely contain myself watching their jaws nearly hit the floor when they thought they beloved hero dissed them. She eventually fessed up so their worldview could be reconstructed but that was one precious moment I will never forget. KJS

Re: Phish
Trey enever understood or understands why people flcok to him or the band. Jerry had the same problem. He never wanted to be called the leader of the gretful dead but he surely was.

Re: Phish
please let this happen. i caught the new years run in miami a couple years ago, and it was ridiculous. my one regret in my thus far short life is i didnt get into the dead in time to see jerry play live.
tangent: any comments on the dead taking all the soundboards off archive.org? personally, i give it two thumbs down and i think jerry is spinning in his grave right now.

Re: Phish
whats funny is i never used archive.org until very very recently , like 2 days before they pulled them . I always used furthernet.org or gdlive.com always foudn what i needed. However it seemed Archive had "everything" that I could ever want.
But alas, its gone now, Hopefully Bobby pulls the stick out his ass and lets us download again. I cant see this falling on Phil or the rest of the Band
