Noobs, you will never have what those of us lucky enough to have experienced the 80's and 90's had.

I'm a 2.0 nOOb, I get that, I've been in your seat with other bands that I got in to at the start > had to watch nOObs come in the fanbase.

I had no interest in checking out Phish in the 90's because I loathe the Grateful Dead > the "Phish are Dead clones" thing. Since 1994 is my favorite year of Phish, I really screwed the pooch on that one! Still, I've been to some hot 2.0/3.0 shows (6/19/04, 8/7/09, 9/2/11) *and* a show as my first one that was so badly played (see: OxyTrey) that I'm surprised I came back (7/8/03).

When he comes at his expressions from an angle as in Ocelot, it works brilliantly, not so much in songs like Joy and Show of Life.

I love the song Joy, especially the lyrics, which are partly about Trey's dying sister Kristy. I'm glad that I've heard it 3 times out of the 27 performed! :-)

Here's for a new album and more touring by Phish in 2013!

...cause this is your song too.........
