well, seeing as their is a bit of upsetness about scalping around  
here, what do yous think about those scalper's scalpers, bastards of  
all bastards, ticketmaster?  somehow, i don't think that charging 25%  
of the ticket price for "conveniance" and "service" is even remotely  
justified, especially when you live in oregon and spend 45 mins + on  
the stinking phone, on HOLD waiting to make a five minute  
transaction.  I think the time is rapidly approaching for phish to  
start their own mail-order system, because, well because i think so.

Well, a few people have made some mention of 
wanting to gather at StonyBrook, so attached is a 
repost of my proposal for the gathering...
If we gather at the Union, it'll be simple enough to
form parties to head over to the Pizza place, or we
can get them to deliver pizzas to us in the Union,
for true party atmosphere :-)

If the crowd is not too large, I'm considering having 
some apres show festivities at my house, we can play
that by ear, it's only 10 minutes away. 

If anyone gets to the Union and there's nobody there,
just hang out, cause some people have indicated that 
they intend to come. You could phone me too, if I'm
not there yet, it's 928.4129 in the same area code
as StonyBrook (516). 

Hoping to see at least some of you...

here's the original post:

Greetings all Stony Brook bound PhishNet people!

Well, a series of changes in plans have made it possible for
me to attend the Stony Brook show, and thanks to Rich F. I 
actually have a ticket (thanks Rich!!). 

Do we want to gather? I think so.. My recommendation for a 
meeting spot is the "fireside lounge" in the Stony Brook Union. 
The Union is next to the gym on campus. If you walk in through the front 
doors (under the bridge) there's a set of double doors. i.e. 
go through the first doors, you're in a vestibule, through the
second doors, you're in the building. Immediately
to the left is a passageway leading into the fireside lounge. Simple
enough. Not a lot of amenities, but at least a place
to sit down and relax. And we can always go from there...

If you somehow manage to come in the back door of the Union
(you'll know -- the back door is off of a parking lot, it 
has an automatically opening door, and once in the Union there's
a bank of payphones on your left and the box office on your right) 
just keep walking forward. Directly in front of you are the doors 
out of the front entrance of the building. Just before that, on the
right, is the opening to the fireside lounge..

I'll try to check today to see if the union will be open on 
Saturday, I think it usually is. Anyone have any other ideas?
Is anyone going to show up? What time do people think they'll
arrive? I live about 10 minutes away, so I can show up anytime..

If you're going to SB and haven't gotten the info file I put 
together, you might want to email me for a copy. It contains 
ascii maps of the area and campus, so you can actually find the 
Union.

I am so happy!!!

      Hi Pholks,
          Just a quick note from Jaybar before I go to Ithaca.
     Yes, I goofed.  Fish's new song is "Lengthwise" not "Like flies."
     I don't know what I thought I heard after the show.

          There was no "Wilson" played in Albany.  The list was SICK.
     One of the best perfomances by all band members, but particularly

	Well I just got back an hour or so ago from the Albany show.  Wow.  I
guess they're starting some thing of cover encores, because this time they
ripped up "Good Times Bad Times".  SWEET David Bowie jam,  good T. Chalkdust,
yes, Fish's new stuff was sweet.  At St. Mike's did the band "sneak" off the
stage while Fish was playing the vacuum?  They did tonight and it was farging
funny, staged or not.  I counted around 20 tapers.  Good job!  Post tape
announcements please!  "You Enjoy Myself" ripped tonight, as well as Wilson.
Christ they did some great oldies, harly anyhthing from Lawnboy except for
Reba (HAPPY, STEVE!?).  Oh well enough of my rambling.  Later...

Hello netters,

	For those of you at the shows where the big beach
balls were bounced around the audience, I have a question.

	Were the balls MIDI balls like DuKookoo (sp) had
at a Grateful Dead show last year?

	DuKookoo opened up for the Dead once last year
and they had bounced MIDI balls out into the audience.
Each time the ball was bounced, it played a different
'sample' of music.

favour to my mother I want to try to see if I can get tickets for him to go.
So:

spent on phish.. t-shirts, tickets, transportation costs, buying blank tapes,

aren't they nice?  but seeing how horrendous net volume has gotten i'd like to
make a suggestion/request regarding the several trees currently running.  most
seem be closing about november's end, which means a lot of early december
activity.  this is a time when tons of phishheads will be taking exams, going
on ye old holiday, whatever.  i shudder to think how fast digests accumulate,
and how hard it'll be to sort through for tree information.  in short, i 
predict more than your usual level of chaos.  

so:  it would be great if people running the trees would be sure to repost the
trees in early january for any who will have missed it (by cancelling digests
over christymas, for example .... and PLEASE do that to be kind to shelly's
mailbox), and for branches to attempt contact with their missing leaves at 
about the same time.


maybe this was obvious, but i figured it couldn't hurt to mention it....

The "Oh Kee Pa ceremony" (in addition to being a Native American rite of
passage) is what the band calls their regular sessions of completely free
improvisation lasting several hours.  Some band member (Mike? Trey?)
described this in an interview, explaining that they would get together and
improvise for long periods of time as a way of keeping their ideas fresh and
building a good vibe in the group.

So, Union Federal seems to be an excerpt of one of these ceremonies.  A cool
idea, I think, and certainly less painful than being suspended by hooks.

The Flecktones are indeed an interesting band. I first saw

the latest HORDE shows that they played on, though I do have some of
the WSP sets. I do have a 90m tape from the Flecktones on NYE that
comes from an FM broadcast that wasn't approved to be broadcast-the
station here taped a copy for me before they destroyed the tape. The
second side contains an interview with Bela Fleck and Howard Leevy
(sp?), then one with Col Bruce from a pro CD Johnny Sandlin gave me.
Interested? E-mail me or call (205) 758-1667. Relix also had an

	Sorry to have to jump on the bandwagon, but because of my own laziness,
and lack of money, I was not able to get tickets for either of the pre-new years
shows in New Haven.  I am hoping that some kind soul out there has at least one
extra ticket for each of these shows.  In return I am willing to pay for them, 
trade tapes, or I can offer tickets for the following shows:
	2 for St. Michael's College 
	1 (possibly) 2 for Albany
Please help me out in my time of need.

I was looking through the magazine rack in our bookstore the other day (what a
great place!) and found a copy of CD Review's "Best of Music 1992".  Sure
enough, there was a review of PON, and here it is:
			PHISH
		   A Picture of Nectar
		        *****     [out of a possible 5!]
	
	Phish's brand of Jazzy psychedelic rock constantly
	challenges you, as the foursome explores what it 
	means to ba highly competent muscians in a truely
	progressive rock band.  And while Phish's strength 
	will always be live shows, A Picture of Nectar is a
	jam packed jewel bursting with brilliant surprises
	you have hear to believe.


This made happy, especially since the only other review I read of PON was that
really wierd criticism/praise of it from last Feb.

Also:  What's with the Stoneybrook gathering?  Are we meeting at the pizza
joint neer the train station?  Hope to see everyone there.  Phish on.
