Whos psyched for Phish!!!!

[frozencorn]

After seeing them in Providence, Manchester (FTW), and both Worcester shows last year, I realized how much more I would rather devote funds to arena shows, and swore off the summer. But if they are indeed not touring after the summer, and they're in my backyard at Great Woods....how can I not go?

saw that they have no plans to tour in the fall. maybe a new album in the works? maybe Trey is having a lot of fun with this TAB tour and wants to do that again. Could simply just be them trying to increase demand for the summer shows. Very few shows last summer and fall sold out.

Great Woods is on a Tuesday yes?

The last Phish show I saw there in 09, I didn't get out of the parking lot until 2AM. If it were a Saturday show perhaps I'd go, but I highly doubt I'll bother given it would essentially mean having to take the next day off.

I like arena shows too... Nothing like an MSG show!!!

But i also like some sheds too... Bethel Woods is sublime!

I prefer outdoor venues for large shows simply because I'm not a fan of assigned seating.

In general though I'm losing interest in large shows. As much as I love Phish, Furthur etc, the hassles and expense is becoming less and less worth it to me. Getting tickets is a pain, they're expensive, beers in the show are expensive, being stuck for 2 hours in a parking lot after the show when you want to hit the road. etc, etc,

I'll probably have a better time seeing Dopapod this Saturday for $8 at a 150 person venue than I will seeing Furthur in Florida next month.

i do both... Big shows and small.. Lucky to have Bearsville theater near my house and Woodstock in general.. Lots of small acts..

Going to see 2 Levon Rambles in the next month or so... Can't get much smaller then that. But at $125 a ticket it's steep - but imho worth every penny.. One of them has Warren Haynes sitting in..

My request is in for Bethel....I love that venue.

I would pay $125 to see a Levon Ramble once for a special occasion.

We are fortunate to have the Stone Church walking distance from home. Well, I don't mind the 30 minute walk, some folks would. Classic small venue of 150 ppl max. Phish played there during their formitive years.

Thats how the Ramble addiction starts.. I went free my first time before it got tight..
Then it was MMW, Stanton Moore, Donald Fagen - any excuse... Worse then crack I tell u...

This weekend I'm going to see a friends band play there( http://www.loveeatsleep.com/ )... stoked...

I'm on the Stone Church email list... Someday I want to check it out.. Good stuff..
