I heard a promotional copy of Rift last night, and all I have to say is
GET PSYCHED EVERYONE!  There's a really nice pedal steel on "Fast Enough
For You" that finally won me over to that song, which I previously hated.
Anyway, I can't wait to get my own copy on 2/3.  Later all.

I'm going climbing in Washington over spring break with a friend from Seattle
and we'd love to hit the Santa Rosa show. Unfortunately, neither of us has a
credit card with which to order tickets. Soooo...could some kind netter in the
Seattle area who is going to the show (and hasn't yet ordered tickets) consider
picking up two extras? My friend can meet you somewhere in Seattle to exchange
money or tapes or whatever in person to avoid mail hassles. 

Thanks in advance!

 I wholeheartedly agree with you, Joe!  My guess is that whoever wrote
 this happened to hear the term 'phishead' and their music referred to
 as 'neat' (understatement of the month) and proceeded to write what
 he/she thought to be 'catchy'.  Chances are that any actual knowledge
 about the band or their music never entered his/her mind.  You can't
 blame them for not knowing, but maybe a little research was in order.

I 3- If you can, park in Newport Station in Hoboken. There is a guarded parking
I lot, it only costs 6 or 7 dollars, and the path is underneath. The path still
I costs a dollar to get over, but it is the cheapest bet for parking,
I transportation, and saftey. Youll have  to check to see how late it runs though
I 4- Park at one of the Ferry's. I know that the ferry by the Lincoln Tunnel cost
I  20 dollars for parking and round trip ferry tickets. Plus, when you get
I to Manhatten, they have a shuttle bus that will take you whereever you want.
I Again though, youll have to check the hours on this.

I am quite certain that both these services stop running at around midnight. 
Unless you are staying overnight in manhatten, your best bet is to park close
to Roseland.  As long as you park indoors you can rest assured that your car
and belongings will be quite safe.  I don't see why anyone would suggest 
parking in little Italy. It's about 2 miles away from Roseland and if you are
unfamiliar with Manhatten you will have a hard time finding your way. The
subways may be convenient, but they are exactly safe too late at night. Niether
is walking that distance. Taxi's are very convenient, but unless you want to 
shell out an extra $10+ you should park close by.  BTW, be prepared to pay from
$10 to $20 dollars for parking. (a $1 tip for the guy who gets your car is 
optional). Also, MAKE SURE YOU PARK IN A 24hr LOT. You wouldn't want to leave
a Phish show only to find that you can't get your car until the next day 
because the lot has closed.

Unfortunately I won't be able to join you all there, but I hope this info helps.

Yes, as I was telling some people in Springfield, I have a copy of

the album...  Hold Your Head Up.

    Hi pholx ->
    Rich Fromm inquires about type four tapes...
        I took a class in sound production at Trinity College as well
    as working with a sound co. here in Syracuse. (Usually involved with
    taping shows for bands such as Crazy Diamond and Over the Garden Wall.)
        I've been aware of the "aversion" to overuse of type IV for about
    four years now.  Again, most people limit their use of type IV's
    to live masters, which then get play copied and then get *STASHED*
     Really they get *DEEP STASHED*.  
        The reason is that over use of metal tapes causes premature
    deterioration of the playback heads on tape decks.
         For more information as to your specific model, consult your 
    dealer.  Personally, my "home" deck choice was the DENON DMR-800,
    The three head (really 2 1/2 since only Nak has ever produced a 
    TRUE 3 - head cassette deck)  Three head amorphous deck w/two motors
     and two capstans.  I finally burned out thye head after four years.
    (and close to 1000 tapes of my own, let alone the immense number of 
    tapes copied for others.)
        Rich, I will concede that metal tapes make better masters.

      Now - the last "TUBE" was Albany 11-20-92, between Fluffhead and 
     Y.E.M.   BTW  What are they saying in....  ;->

     As to 0th generation - our jargon (my taping cohorts) is "MASTER"
   which means that tape made in the arena.  HOWEVER -> most
   of my buddies and I are split as to what to call the first analog
   tape from a DAT master.  Some call it "Analog master" (myself included)
    while most call it a 1st generation copy.  Six of one, half a dozen
    of the other.  No matter how you slice it, it comes up Kill sound.

      Everybody stay psyched...see you in two weeks...
      BOW TO PAGE'S GREATNESS!!!!!

	I recently saw a Zappa video, an hour of highlights from a show
he played in '84.  I was very impressed; first of all, it was digitally
recorded, and we could clearly hear most of the instruments, even through
a cheesy TV speaker (I missed a rebroadcast on somebody's stereo VCR but I
imagine it was well done).  The music was slightly mixed so that you could
clearly hear whoever was "going off" at any particular moment.

	But what got me was that it wasn't like an MTV video- pans across
the stage of the musicians being particularly raunchy or studly, with
a studio track of the song in the background, but rather, the music was
timed *exactly* with what was going on on stage.  I was VERY impressed
with this; I think that it is entirely within the capability of Phish to
put on a few shows with four or five video cameras constantly trained on
the musicians, perhaps some videotaping by Mike during bouncing segments,
etc (it'd be neat to see the crowd during "Bouncing Around the Room" or
some shots of the people in the crowd straining their ears toward the
speakers just after Trey hits the pre-signal noise [something I saw during
NYE... pretty funny]).  In fact, a good Phish video could be *very* good
I think, provided they did a job as well as Zappa's crew.

	I read in one of the recent interviews that there was Shoreline
footage.  I saw this show (Chalkdust, Bouncing, YEM, Maze, something else)
but sadly cannot remember anything of what happened due to an encounter with
fungus, and would love to see this... unfortunately, somebody fell off a
trampoline during the YEM segment :-)

I just bought a new tape deck, and may get a second soon so I've
decided its time to get a new head cleaner and demagnetizer.  The
problem is, I don't know anything beyond what I read on the packaging.

Here's what I've read or I'm assuming:
I should buy one of those electronic head demagnetizers built into
a tape.
Most audiophiles go with the wet cleaning systems and the handheld
swabs.
'Discwasher' claims that it is superior because it does dry cleaning
but does not use the "sandpaper strategy."  It does not explain
how it works but to say its patented.  They state that the wet
cleaners are bad for the rollers in the deck, and will make them more
likely to eat tapes after using them for a while.
A friend of mine has a Discwasher and says it doesn't work very well
so he's going to buy something by Allsops (sp?).

Anyway, you can see this is one area of audio in which I know very
little.  I think its probably best to go with one of the manual
wet cleaners, but I don't know if the different wet cleaners are very
different or not.
Please help, I'm confused.
