Wow. I get that some people don't care for Phish. They're not for everyone, but to deny their musicianship? Excuse me David Crosby?

He seems to approach things from an individual level.
PHish is more of a group thing.

A friday, Sat or Sunday would be better, this is a Thursday. I don't take 2 days off for 1 show. looks like a great time. I might have tried if I got shut out for chicago though. This could be a tough ticket too.

 

[deadheadskier]

Yeah, not sure about taking the time for a Thursday in MD. If it was local it would be an easy decision

 

[Funky_Catskills]

Wow... Directed by Don Was... He did a great job at Love for Levon..

I booked a hotel for the Maryland thing. Hoping that the ticketing process doesn't turn into a shit show.

I heard of another guy who got the nice E-mail from GDTSTOO that went into a spam type folder. Check your spam folders. Could be some good news. Anyone doing any of these pre and after parties. I always found it hard to plan a bunch of things around show. Lots of logistics don't always mesh.

Good advice!!

I'm not planning on any pre-parties.
I may meet up with some college friends.. I'll try to find you too..

I'll probably go out after the show...

I will be in town Early Evening Thursday Night.

I hope to be around the venue by 3 on Friday to get the lay of the land. I have to follow the train schedule, but looks like they run until around 12.30 ish. Plenty of time to hook up. I think there were 30 touring friends that I thought were going. Maybe 15 now with the ticket shuffle.

rumors swirling now that there will be west coast bay area show/s prior to chicago

 

[deadheadskier]

I saw that. Two shows in Santa Clara are rumored for the weekend prior. It would really be asinine of the band to not play California. IMO, the final shows should've been in the bay area, but if the nostalgia and symbolism of Chicago is what they want, who am I to say don't do it.

Wish NY/NE got some love. The MPP will be a great show no doubt. But, being a Thursday and in Maryland, I bailed on trying for tickets today. I could swing a local Thursday show, but not Maryland.

The same guy that called Chicago a "Ponzi scheme"?

Aint gonna happen..

 

[deadheadskier]

Wait? So, I shouldn't believe everything I read on Facebook? :lol:

 

[Funky_Catskills]

Blogs are where the real BS comes from..

 

[marcski]

Apparently Billboard is saying negotiations have begun...
