Type 3 should be discussed

"Type 3" was the label given to Phish's white-boy "pornofunk" jamming, which Trey referred to as "cowfunk." It is exemplified by Phish's funky jams, e.g., in Fall 1997 "Tubes" and "Tweezers." Its use by fans did not catch on as much as "type 1" and "type 2," presumably because its use is also very silly, and "type 3" is -- after all -- "funky type 1," or "funky type 2," depending on out of what song it occurs. (One expects "funky type 1" in songs like "Tube," "Sneakin Sally," "Boogie On," "Tweezer," and "Wolfman's," for example.) Mike, however, redefines "type 3" on his "hotline" message as part of the joke, so I figured it best to ignore it... at least until some vet brought it up.
