Howdy pholks,
	I'm wondering if I'm the only one w/dbx recordings.  I plan
to tape all the West Coast (as far east as Arizona/New Mex.
hopefully!) using dbx - plus I've got a bunch of non-Phish tapes
recorded in dbx...  The tapes sound awesome, I swear!  Who's with
me?!?!?  So when are those west coast dates going to come out
anyway? Just want to get a handle on how much school I get to miss &
far in debt I'm gonna have to go....
			So much water out here and no Phish...

There is an official one, but maybe we need to post a phishnet version every
now and then.  Here's a few things, some may be in the official one, some
may not:

  -  Don't type in all uppercase letters.  It is very hard to read and
     personally I don't usually bother.

  -  Hit return at the end of each line unless you are sure your editor
     deals with formatting for you.  A lot of newsreaders spill the excess
     back over the beginning of the line, making it pretty hard to
     decipher what was written.

  -  Have short signature files.

  -  When you are quoting another article, edit it so only what is 
     directly relavent to what you are saying is left.  A good rule
     of thumb is, don't quote more than you write.

  -  Be nice to people.  Behind every electronic mailbox is a real person.

  -  Especially be nice to people if you are ASKING for something, for
     example, tickets to a phish concert.  You're a lot more likely to
     get them that way then if you demand that the scapler-scum who
     lurk in phish-net-land sell you the 27 extra tickets they bought
     with the express purpose of reselling at a huge profit to non-
     phish- netters.  You get the idea.

  -  Don't post the same message every day for two weeks because nobody got
     back to you the next day.  Some sites don't get messages for a while
     after they are posted.  I don't get messages until about 3 days after
     they are posted. (Kinda sucks for me, but sucks even worse when I see
     the same request for tapes or whatever over an over again).

... the list could go on, but the idea is pretty simple... if you wouldn't
want to read it from someone else, then don't post it.

I was sittin' at my computer writing some email quite inspired by the phish 
bootleg in my walkman, when this guy i kinda sort know comes up and tells me 
that he heard the reason phish started to get big, with recording contracts 
and all was because one of the guys in the band was hit by the limo of some 
famous singer.  In the typical fashion of rumors, he was not sure where he had 
heard this from, or who the famous limo owner is.  
Has anyone heard such things before?  Is this some twisted version of The 
Commitments?

That was also me.  If anyone is looking forward to the same kind of

So then,

What does Uffitze translate into English?  Why does it need to be washed?

I generally just think of the info in the FAQ when I think of this song.

you know, that it started out as "Wash-a you feets they drive me to frenzy"

At a Grateful Dead concert earlier tonight, I met a phemale
phishhead who informed me that Phish will be playing at her
school in Southern California on March 19th, a Friday.

And during a frisbee golf game the day before that, a friend
who works for Bill Graham Presents gave me the dates of 
the Warfield shows in late March, the 26th and 27th if
memory serves.

As these dates mesh with previous posted dates (the attempted,
tho' Andy Bensky reports aborted, booking of Frost Ampitheatre on March 29th,
as well as whoever it was who posted the open dates for Arizona/Nevada/
New Mexico promoters), I'd like to idly speculate for a moment. 

Based on this information, and their past 3 West Coast tours,
I'd imagine that they'll be in the Southwest in mid-March, 
SoCal ~3/19-~3/24, the Bay Area ~3/26-~3/29, Arcata the end of March,
and Portland, OR and Tacoma, Olympia, & Seattle, WA in early April. 
Now that they've broken ground into Canada, I'll bet Vancouver,
British Columbia will be added to the rotation as well.

I have the feeling I'm going to be flamed for posting this 
idle speculation... but my hope is that with more information
from other members of the .net we can piece together the rest
of the dates.  Corrections, additions, more idle speculation?  
I'll happily accept email on the subject ;-)

I'm presenting a paper at AAAI '93 from 3/23-3/25 (any other
phish.netters going?) and then hope to take a few weeks off
to see some shows, so the anticipation is killing me...

Later,

Carl @ Delphi ... I'll have to add an appropriate quote to my .sig...

As noted by others, counterfeit tix have already been reported
for other shows.  The tickets for this show are not bi- or
tri-colored in layers (as are Gdead mail orders) and do not
APPEAR to have any black-light additions to be checked at the
door.  For these reasons, it would be difficult for you to
distinguish between real and coutnerfeit tix.  As urged by the
band, ms. culbertson, et al, it would be very UNWISE to try to go
to the show and get a ticket.  Moreover, it will HURT the band's
opportunities to play, our opportunity to see them, the cost of
the tickets, the pains to get tickets, the scene at shows, the
cost of parking, the sales of Rift, and the color of melons if
large schools of phish.heads appear in lots looking for (and oft
buying counterfeir) tickets.  If you're looking for extras, do it
on the net.

Not at a stop light, but while driving on the Mass. Pike (I-90) towards
beantown, specifically a few miles after the Worcester exit.  I
heard a honk, and a passenger in a small station wagon waved 
his "extra" finger at me in hopes I had an extra NYE.  And 
I don't even have any Phish stickers on my car yet...

Me too, but also credit the Matthews Arena staff for being prepared 
in some respects, including placing a number of port-a-potties outside
the arena.  Inside, everything was way cool, but I couldn't help
but think that Phish may indeed grow into the arena circuit, as
the show they played musically was of that calibre! 

On another note:  thank you to Shelly for posting the Trey & Mike

	I find it understandable that Phish would have some anxieties about
doing a video, for many of the reasons mike talked about in the interview
(creating undesired musical images/the stagnation of video art).  Still, I
think they COULD create a video and NOT 1)sell out 2)force the listener to
develop certain mental images via the video.
	
	For example, what if the guys from Phish shot a video for "Fast Enough
for You" in which they just sat in a bathtub and passed around a sandwich
while, instead of lip syncing and air guitaring the tune, they just sat there
and LISTENED to the song... Listening to music... what a novel concept.  If
they wanted to be pretentious about it, they could even remark about what a
great song it is.  'What a bitchen steel guitar solo, Trey'... 'Thanks, Fish,
and that's some very tasteful drumming you've laid down, yourself.'  Just a
thought.

	btw.  Can't wait for the Poughkeepsie show.  Haven't seen these guys
live in 2 years.

Ticketbastard-mailed tix to both Roxy shows came this afternoon,
in the same envelope.  Show starts at 9pm, gen adm.

Two questions:

1) The tix say "Windstorm presents".  Who the hell is Windstorm?
Is that the Southeast's Cellar Door?  What happened to Dionysius
Productions?

2)  The back of the tix say "Holder agrees not to transmit or aid
in transmitting any description or picture of this game or
event."  That `agreement' is not on the back of any of the
ticketbastard stubs I have.  Theoretically, this could apply to
e-mail accounts of the show and taping, as well as photographs.
Is taping not allowed? (Please inform soon, if any one knows.)
Is photography not allowed?

I don't think anything beats the jubilation I'm feeling right
now, having finalized my plans to go to Florida in late February
to see those shows.  This may be our last chance to see Phish in
those small theaters that they used to play a couple years ago,
the absence of which kinds of shows has been hotly debated around
here lately.

Anyway, I'm wondering who else plans on being there, if it might
be possible for me to catch some rides to various shows, and if
anybody might need places to flop after the shows.  I plan on
going to the Orlando, Tampa and Gainesville shows for sure, and
may catch another.  I *do* have family in Florida (the nation's
phallus, I used to call it), and it might be a little difficult
to explain to mom and dad why I traveled 3,000 miles to Florida
and spent the little time I had there seeing some band.  Anyway,
whatwith all my friends and family in the area, I could probably
set some folks up with a couch to crash on.  So let me know.

Also, if there are people in the San Francisco area interested in
trading tapes, I'd be interested hearing from you.
