That tune on the Ian's Farm tape between Golgi and Flat Feet,
is, as Pete (poker@meteor.wisc.edu) pointed out, from the
Who's Quadrophenia album (I think, not Tommy). I think it
is tentatively labeled Sparks, and they've played it on other
occasions (and other tapes). Just to give another perspective.

Yikes!!!!! I got tix for both nights at the Roseland this morning bright and
early from your friends and mine, TicketBastard!!!! the tix are 18.50(jeez!!!!)
to begin with and TB has slapped usx with a nice 6 dollar surcharge. So for 2
tickets it was $48.55. And that was for only one night!!!!! I am totally
cleaned out. and really pissed off.

I also called Hobart & William Smith's Student Union and they said tix will not
be available for non students untill the 22nd.	

I hope Phish works out a mailorder system really soon, cause I cannot afford
shows like this much longer.		

Still looking forward to the concerts, though, I hope everyone gets their
chance to see some good shows, high prices and all.....populartity hurts the
wallet, don't it?!

If Phish were to do mail order (please, please, please, please) I feel that
there should be zip code checks, but in the opposite way that most people have
been talking about them.  Only have- say- 5-10% of the tickets available by
mail order, and the further away you are, the better your chances should be
.   After all, if Phish are playing in your town, there are other ways of 
getting tickets (e.g. going to TicketMaster...).  However, if you live in (just
to throw out a random state) New Mexico, and Phish are playing their NYE show in
Boston, it'll be a lot harder for you to get your phishstick (one of my favorite
new terms...).  Anyway, that's my two cents, inspired quite a bit from the 47+
hour drive and how close I came to being shut out in New Haven...

Thanks Eric. It seems to me that Tweezer & _ reprise are are more than
just a krah-shen-doe & dee-krah-shen-doe pair as the Decrescendo is not
only a decrease in volume, energy & tension but rather a deconstruction of
the Crescendo. Or is that a typical way for the pair to occur?

in their tour?  It looks as if they are definately trying to reach a wider
audience, and I think certain crowds (particularly in the Austin area) would
be very receptive.  Here's hoping!!

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, Zach :-(....but I'm looking at the
PHISH TOUR DATES * FEB 93 page from the Feb 93 Phish Update (coming soon
to a mailbox near you!) and Feb. 11 clearly lists a show in Bloomsburg, Pa.;
I can't find any mention of a Syracuse show.  I suppose it's always possible
that there was a change in plans after the printing of the newsletter, but
frankly I think that's highly unlikely (and would be most unusual).  I'm
surprised that there's a Syracuse newspaper printing that they'll be there,
and I'd be interested in hearing more about that if you could email me.

Still, look at the bright side -- Rochester and Geneva are both reasonably
close to you; think how you'd feel if you lived in Anchorage! ;-)

One more time, please use the field EXACTLY as I have them here...
If you've already sent me your info, don't sweat it...

In case you are curious, I had left out the field to include
what type of dubbing equipment you have.
In case any of you are interested, we now have 56 entries,

Hi,
Just thought I'd put in a few words about what I liked about the NYE
show.  I was surprised at how absent the security people were once
people had gotten in the door.  I didn't see anyone being hassled for
the whole show.  I was sitting in the back facing the stage, and the
sound was very good from back there.  I really like "Buried Alive";
it's one of those tunes that keeps replaying itself in my mind, and
I was glad that they started with it.  Wilson was kind of nice, but
I was really pleased to hear that nice long Divided Sky.
I wandered the floor during the break, and was pleased that Shelly
saw my Phishnet shirt and introduced herself.  She's the only nethead
I talked to, though I did catch a glimpse of someone wearing the new
style shirt.  I was a little disappointed that no net gathering place
ever got posted to the net, and I didn't get to meet more people.
The Famous Mockingbird thing was neat, and I also wondered if it was
the Dude of Life in the bird costume (which didn't look much like a
mockingbird actually, but it was a nice idea).  The new signals sounded
cool on the next days broadcast, especially the "mass hysteria" during
the flying saucer rap.  Good Times Bad Times really cooked.  I was hoping
for a Hendrix cover, and really liked the Fire encore.  All in all it was
a most satisfying birthday experience for me.

Hi Pholks-
        I'm a member of concert committee here at Hobart college and
I thought I'd drop you all a note and let you know the latest.
Student Tickets go on sale here at the school on Friday, Jan 15.
They will remain on sale for students only for one week.  After
a week, on Jan 22 the tickets will be available through Ticketbastard
for $17 plus the usual ticketbastard price.  There will be at
least 225 tix available through TB, The Smith Opera House has
seating for about 1200.  In case you are wondering, Hobart has
a student body of about 1700.  So I wouldn't expect to many
tix available besides the given 225, but I will keep an eye
on sales and keep everyone posted.
        Any Questions I can answer just drop me a line.

 Greeting Pholks!
   Happy New Year! NYE was great! My favorite part was
about 1 1/2 minutes before midnight, during the Mike's Song
jam, when Trey said, "You've got about 1 1/2 minutes left
in this year> Make it good!" and then he did the sickest jamming
ever for the last minute. Chills race the length of my spine.
   As far as songs that seem to have disappeared- I believe
Destiny Unbound is at this point shelved indefinately. The band
thinks it sounds too much like that other band(what is it, The 
Almost Dead?) AC/DC Bag is on the back burner for now, they aren't
satisfied with the structure, and Mike might give it a new bass
line. NICU is one that we might not hear again. At the Ann Arbor
sound check they played it, and after Trey said "I really don't like
that song," to which there was general agreement. You never know
waht they'll do, though. Happy day y'all!-Brian

they are slow , some things just naturally occur at a slower pace- remember Col Forbins climb? Think of sloths as intermediates between the animal

Yowza!  What an awesome way to begin the yew near!  Highlights for me @ NYE:
 - Fishman with his 'mane' rising up out of the drumset during Harpua.  
 - The Minkin was *ALIVE*!  
 - Anybody know of another occasion where they played Mikes Song -->

    - Phish gets a new sound system!!!
    - Phish sets up a mail-order ticket service and offers designated
      tapers tix.

Hey, John Wood:  Thanks for the AMAZING tapes!!!  :-)

FWIW, Phish no longer allows FOB taping.  I had 14th row center seats for
Springfield and was told I couldn't tape from my seat.  Apparently this new
rule is from the band via Paul.  This wasn't much of a problem at
Springfield, where security and people-whose-seats-we-used were very cool
about it... ...we got lucky.

While I'm on the subject, did anyone else notice the annoying BUZZZZ coming
from the PA at New Years!?  Needless to say, my tapes didn't come out.  To
top it off, we slept late and missed the first 3 songs of set 1 of the WBCN
reboradcast; and (rubbing salt) my SV-255 munched my copy of set two.  I'd
like to offer a trade of any show of mine to the kind person willing to do
the phish.net the HUGE favor of supplying part of an FM->DAT seed of the NYE
show.  I need the first three songs of set 1 and all of set 2 before I can
run the tree.  Please mail me (maggard@subpac.enet.dec.com) for a tapelist.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
