GAWD, you yankees never cease to amaze me.

Possum is the shortened form of Opossum, and should therefore be written as
'Possum, but it never is.

Hey All!
        Just got back from my weekend in Geneseo during which i happened
to catch Shockra in Roch, and wasn't bowled over by thier performance as
I am at Phish shows even though they did have some really inspired jams
and some great sax, some of the songs were just lacking while others
were really good, but hey, for $6.00 (under 21) i'd say it was a good buy.

        BTW, Joe I home you found Mike, and Mike I hope you found Joe.

                                        Peace,

 I'm pretty new to this group, but from what I've read it seems that there is 
a lot of low-gen Phish sbds in circulation. I am very interested in getting 
some more. I only have one show now, Anaconda Theater Santa Barbara...I would

Hey All,
	Andy D. asked about an old show and side A sounds like the tape I have
labeled 12/1/84.  There are a few differences though, mine is Scarlet>Fire>Fire
on the Mountain, Slave to the Traffic Light, Spanish Flea (This is the Herb 
Alpert song and is when the band indroduces itself, notice no keyboards/Page),
Skippy (McGruff), Fluffhead.  The last two include the Dude of Life on vocals.
I noticed another reply to Andy's tape that side B was a show in '85 and it
makes sense that Andy has two shows on one tape cause I can't imagine these
guys having to play Scarlet twice in one night their set list had to be long
enough to get through playing songs only once!!???!?  Oh well, that's my
two cents.  Later!

Peace, Love & Toys,

HI!

Well, I'm a freshman here at Swat, and I thought I'd get to know these news
services.  Then I found all this Phish stuff!

Here's my story:  I've never had to trade tapes before, because a few of my
friends traded Phish, and I could just borrow the tapes from them.  But now
they're off at their places, and I'm at mine, and I have only ten Phish
tapes, one GD, and one WSP.  So now I want to start building my own
collection, and impress them all at Christmas!

Can anyone get me started??!!!

I want to get hooked up with the net, too.  If I'm doing lots of things
wrong, please tell me.  I've never used e-mail or this news stuff before.

Hi y'all!

With the phall tour coming up, I was wondering if anyone could offer
any advise for soundboard taping at Phish shows.  I've never done this
before, so I have a couple of concerns:

     1)  What kinds of wiring do I need to hook a home deck up to the
         sbd (do I need my own power supply)?

     2)  What's the best way to go about getting a hookup  (do I have to
         make arrangements with Paul prior to the night of the show)?

     3)  What kinds of settings have produced good results for all you
         experienced sbd. tapers (I'm analog, no DAT for me, yet)?

     4)  How kindly does Paul take to sbd. hookups (would hooking up
         at 4-5 consecutive shows be too much)?

Thanks in advance for any input.

                                    Doug

I don't have this list, but I can correct a couple of things here...

I would add Lawn Boy, Tela and the "If you're ever unsatisfied" part of
Sweet1 (that's just off the top of my head).  Also he usually sings all
of the high harmony parts.

How about Poor Heart, Rockytop and Uncle Pen (Mike is the resident bluegrass
singer except for Paul and Silas) and the "you know you can count on me to
TAKE good care of you" in sweet1.  Mike usually sings the bass harmonies--
surprise surprise!

>Fishman:

>My Sweet One 
>Lawn Boy

I would have to disagree:  Fishman does not sing on Sweet one.  He *does* sing
the lead on Carolina and Sweet Adeline.

>Cracklin' Rosie
>Sleeping Monkey (part of it)

Yep..and I would group Cracklin' in with Love You, Honey Love, If I Only 
Had a Brain, and any other such song where he sings and plays the vaccuum
or cymbals or trombone or trumpet or bagpipes hooked up to the vaccuum or
just about anything else (I wouldn't include That Far Gone in this category:
Fish doesn't sing on that one.  That Far Gone is kind of a cross between
barbershop and vaccuum cleaner, kind of a vacbarberuumshop song--if you will).

I've always thought that the song that Phish sings is called "Possum"
though the lyrics contain the phrase "Oh, Possum!"

And, unless I am mistaken, an Opossum is a marsupial that immigrated
from South America 3 million years ago when NA and SA collided, while a
Possum is a placental that has been here for a lot longer.  Marsupial and
Placental refer to reproductive systems found in mammals; placental is
considered to be more advanced because more placental survive today than
marsupials, and because humans are placentals.
Can anyone clarify?  Any bio majors out there?

that they frequent being local to the area.  A show that I definately

Thanks to those of you who replied about the NYE?  1984-85 tape my friend
has.  I will try to get it ASAP so I can trade with those of you who said
you would like to.  Anyway, got a couple respones saying that the second
side is probably not Phish at all.  (Why would they play Scarlet twice?)
Or if it is, it is most likely two separate dates.  I will try to verify
differing sound qualities between the side, etc.  

I guess I should say that this is all in response to the thread:

New (Old) Tape       that I posted a couple of days ago.

BTW - I am newly moved to Fla.  and things aren't too Phishy down here.
      Only less than a handful of people have even heard of them.  What's
      the deal, man?   Let's get some southern netters to unite in some 
      way - wouldn't it be great to see them play again?  Doesn't that 
      suck - all I can do is listen to tapes with no real hope of seeing 
      Phish for an undetermined amount of time... :'(  Alas, the music 
      scene is rather bogus for me right now, but I am checking out
      David Byrne tonight.  ;^)  He's playing at the performing arts

i know this is really premature, but what the heck here i am and here
we go:

the michigan theatre is a really nice spot for a concert.
i saw little feat there a few years and it was great.
i am not sure how sound is in the balcony, but hey man it is phish.

net.gathering:  at a bar called SCOREKEEPERS, which is less than 100 yards
away (so we don't have to worry about walking too far....)
there is a parking structure right next to it (which should be open for
parking.....)

directions:  depending on where you are coming in from, get on
M23, and get off at WASHTENAW ave, WEST.
take wastenaw towards AA.  it will take you in for about 5 miles.
you will pass some frat houses, dorms and will curve around.
take this curve and keep on this road.  once you curve, you will pass
the power center and some U of M buildings.  take a left on STATE
street, go through one light and you will come to another light.
at the 2nd light you will have to turn right.  in about feet, there is the
michigan theatre.  get in the left lane QUICKLY and take the first
left.  the parking structure and SCORKEEPERS is about 100 feet
down the road.

i know it is a bit confusing, but it is kinds of hard to get to.

alternate directions, (probably from the west...like kalamazoo)
take 94 east to state street exit (#177).  head north.  go for about
5 miles and you will be forced left right in town.  take the left and
the michigan theatre is about 100 feet down the road.
take the first left and the bar and parking sturcture is right there.

hope this helps.....i think i have covered everything....
let me know if you need more local AA information.

yes, this early, but i thought since i know alot of you are planning to come
to AA, that you would want to know.

OOps.  Sorry 'bout that.

Many of you may remember how quickly the discussion of Phish blossomed
once there was a forum dedicated to Phish.  I think and hope that the
discussion of the HORDE, both as groups and as a genre, will blossom in
the same way.  I also think that if such discussion grew in the absence
of a seperate conference, it would eventually detract from r.m.phish.

So I am all in favor of moving the disussion somewhere else, and concentrating
it there, rather than trying to deal with two seperate issues here.

Anyone else?

I'm not sure if I ever saw the first article...but at any rate, ARU
has one commercially available CD:

Col. Bruce Hampton & the Aquarium Rescue Unit
Capricorn Records 9 42000-2

and I highly recommend it!! :-)


Speaking of ARU -- did anyone have a chance to check out their show
in Burlington on Tuesday?  (Jay?)  I remember the rumors that were
being posted here...and I called Trey that night to wish him a happy
birthday-eve; when we were done talking he said he was on his way
to their show, so -- can anyone tell us about it???

I don't know if you can say these Dead cover band aren't Phish.
Reasons why:

1) On the Scarlet-> Eyes tapes, the person singing sounds a hell of a
lot like Trey.

2) In a conversation I had with Mike at the Norfolk show this summer,
he mentioned having the Scarlet->Fire->Fire on the Mountain tape and
lamented that they didn't always play with such originality these
days.  Maybe I completely misheard him, but that seems improbable.
