Nestled in the swamps of the Seminole Indian Reservation is a part of Phish that we will never see or hear again. RIP Phish 1.0. We had great years together and your final days were magnificent. If life were easy, and not so fast...

Noobs, you will never have what those of us lucky enough to have experienced the 80's and 90's had. Stop trying to convince everyone that you do. Jaded Phans (my bretheren), just enjoy the new tunes, the new directions, and, above all, the show. It's phucking Phish, dammit!

Sorry to post AGAIN, but Ravinus, really, if you had any idea how self-important, pathetic and nauseating you sound, you'd never post again. I'm not a noob, I'm an old Head, and you are not my brethren. Don't pretend you are. Stop confusing your drug-induced wasted youth with the "good old days of Phish". It wasn't what you thought it was, you're just nostalgic. The difference between the Dead and Phish is so vast it can't be used for comparison. The Dead were a shell of what they used to be by late '78, and Jerry had pretty much cashed in his chips by '80. The next 15 years was drivel. We all sat around watching him die while trying to salvage what we could from the shows. This is not like that at all. These guys are reiventing themselves before our eyes and all you do is pander to the past. THANK GOD IT'S NOT '97 ANYMORE. If they stopped at porno-funk they wouldn't be what they are today, which is relevant, vibrant, interesting. You really need to get a life. You think you sound intelligent and knowledgeable, but you actually sound like a teenager jerking off in the bathroom.
Jeez. Go buy a ticket to see Widespread Panic....they haven't developed at all in 20 years. They sound like your kind of band....
