I really hope my phisher-phriends can help me to track a tape for a long-time
phish phan.  This past summer, I was in Alaska (in the town of Kenai to be
specific) and when I pulled over to the side of the road to gather my bearings
(not Bering), I was spotted by a phellow in a white van with phish stickers 
abound.  He introduced himself as Dan Talbot, a long-time acquaintance of the
band of so much attention these days.  Naturally, the two of us were thrilled
to be meeting in such a far-off location with such common interests. Anyway,
I have since returned to the east coast (awww) while he reamins in the 
quickly approaching darkness of Alaskan winter (yes, it's true, the sun only 
shines for a couple of hours a day in the winter).  I have been talking to Dan
on the phone lately, and he was excited to learn that I've been using the phish
net to talk with other phans.  
Anyway- the reason for this post is to try and find a tape for Dan.  He thinks 
the show was in Olympia, Washington in March or April of 1992.  The cool 
thing is when Fishman is introducing the band (I assume during Cracklin Rosie)
he says:
	"On bass... Mike Gordon"
	"On Keys...Page McConnell"
	"On Drums...Trey Anastasio"
and finally...
	"In the audience... Dan!!!"
As you may gather, this tape has mucho sentimental value to Dan, although it is
not the first time the band has acknowledged his presence in the audience 
during a show.  
If you can help me to track down this tape, we'd both be quite happy.  Maybe a
trade can be arranged or I can have Dan send you fresh Alaskan salmon!!!
peace,  seth

Hi there all!
This seems to be my first posting of the new school year so a hearty hello
to y'all from up here in Northeast Wisconsin!  Anyway, I was reading a post
just now about the authorship of the song Uncle Penn.  Well, on my tape of
their 11/8/90 show in Madison, Trey introduces the tune like this:
	"OK, this next one was written by, um, Pendleton van Diver's (sp?)
	nephew..."
I hope this helps some....
Another thing I could add my 2 cents in is the debate about that 84-85 tape
with the Dead covers on it, including "Fire up the Ganja."  I was hangin out
with a guy at the Shoreline Phish/Santana show who had gone to UMASS a few 
years ago and remembered the "old" Phish scene.  He told me about a tape he
had of Phish playing in a bar, covering a tune by a Boston area reggae band,
which was itself a cover of the Dead's Fire on the Mountain.  This tune was
called Fire up the Ganja, so this tape could indeed be an original incarnation
of Phish, probably with the original guitarist who got religion and left the
band.
2 months till Madison!!!
Phish On!!!

Regarding the "Discipline" debate:

I don't belive that Phish has ever played any King Crimson at all,
but they DID used to do a piece called "Dave's Energyguide" (which
can be found on the Finbar's 1985 tape in it's entirety) that is
unbelievably crimson in quality. I, too, thought of Robert Fripp
circa Discipline when I heard it. The tricky thing is that THAT
1985 tape is the only place I've ever heard it played alone, or
where they've mentioned the name. They do play it, however, in the
middcle of a number of other songs (like Whippin' Post, Cities, a
few other things), and did as recently as 1990, I believe. I don't
thiunk they do it anymore, but it was quite a tour de force...
it's on a number of tapes, and I highly recommend searching it out.
It's usually labelled as "Jam" in the middle of other things, since
not many people know that it' called "Dave's Energyguide." Hope
I helped some.

Hey Neighbors across the hill!
        Would any of you be willing to get me two tickets for the Show
at Cornell, since you guys get to buy tickets first, I don't want to take
the chance of not getting a ticket, and anyway the General Public tickets
are mostly "Obstructed View" way up on the second floor, in the back.
So, if you would be willing to get me two tickets, I am willing to drop
off the money at your door, and pick up the tickets at your door,
leaving as little work possible for you.  This great act of generosity
and kindness would be greatly appreciated.   E-mail me, or call 256-9007

Hi phriends, sorry to take up phish space with this but i've
been flooded with mail (mostly from people from here) about
the Spins Tree so I kjust wanted to post a few things & then we can resume
our regularly scheduled phishing. The deadline for the spin tree
registration has been extended until Thursday, we can't accept any
latecomers, we are already totally revising the layout to accomidate all the
new people. As for the tapes, we are doing 3 shows on 4 tapes. One is a
sweet aud of the Roseland show on 10/1/92, the other are two killer boards,
one from 7 Willow St on 7/15/92, the other is the first set from Wetlands on
12/4/91, as well as the "A Piece of Glass" demo tape. Please try not to mail
me concerning the tree, if you have already signed up. All the information
is available (and will be reposted) through spin net. To follow this tree,
you really have to be over there (There won't be any more messages
concerning this tree outside of spin net)  To sign up, please send mail to
 "spins-request@world.std.com"  Currently there are some problems 
as we just switched over to a digest, so it's currently down, but will
hopefully be up any moment. Also, if you plan on being a branch, be prepared
to make roughly 4-6 copies. Thanks a lot for your patience...

Dear everyone:

Well, I'd like to thank ALL of you for making the first PhishNet
T-Shirt a great success - I'm seeing more and more of them
at shows all over the country, and it's wonderful! If anyone is
still interested in the first PhishNet shirt (from now on to be
called the 1992 Net Shirt), there are still 50 or so left, in 
Large and X-Large, $14 each.

But on to new things! It's creeping up on a new year, and
NET SHIRT II is almost ready to start the printing process!
The design this year has, once again, the words PHISH
and NET at the top and bottom, respectively, but that's where
the similarity ends. The image is that of a psychedelic, multi-
hued net swirling into the center, with a small version of the
Phish from last year's shirt swimming joyously in the center.
The words PHISH and NET are done in varying shades of blue
as if they were in a ripply pond, and the UseNet address will
now be on the BACK of the shirt, thanks to the comments of
many pholks who wanted a design without the text under it.
Accompanying the UseNet address on the back is a second graphic
in black and white which I will say nothing more about now -
let it be a surprise :-))

The one drawback to doing a shirt in so many colors, however, 
is that it can come in no other color than white, since the
process color inks used are translucent, and the design would
look totally different on any color shirt other than white. So
I apologize to those of you who don't want another white shirt
in their collections, but I'm still working on a solution....

Anyway, due to incredible (but slow) response to the 1992 
shirt, I was declared of questionable mental stability for
not taking advance orders. So this time, I have decided to
take advance orders and have my sanity regain its status
in the community. This year's shirt is going to cost $15.00,
since printing on the back costs more, and that includes all
shipping and such stuff. Anyway, advance orders for this
shirt can be sent to:

            Matt Laurence
            11 John Poulter Rd.
            Lexington, MA 02173

same as last year, along with size info (the most popular will 
be L and XL, but I'll get a few small, med and XXL if there is
enough interest). Orders for the last shirt can also be sent
there, and they are still $14 each. I'll keep posting updates on
the status of the shirts, but if you are interested in one, please
try to advance order - it will make life much easier on this end
(you'd be amazed how expensive it is to do shirts as colorful as
these in small runs...). So, thanks in advance for your help in
making it easier for netheads everywhere to find each other
and party appropriately!

We now return you to your regularly scheduled newsgroup.

Please keep posting about the Omar Saeed Quintet, ok?  It might be a long

about them in the meantime!
(Besides, I may have never heard of Phish if people hadn't clogged the

	I believe that you are referring to the story of Gamehendge...
	entitled 'The Man Who Stepped Into Yesterday'. This was,
	correct me if I'm wrong, Trey's senior thesis while studying 
	song composition. Now this is the part I'm not entirely
	certain of, was this at UVM or Goddard? 
	Anyway, that's probably what your tape is. On the subject of
	re-releasing this, I really doubt that they will release the 
	copy you have (the same that many of us have) because of the
	poor sound quality, my tape has Trey's voice on the right, and
	the music on the left. There has been some talk of
	re-recording this, but there is some apprehension on Mike's
 	behalf (I think.)

	Segments of the Gamehendge story have been performed along
	with Trey's narration. The two I know of are Nectar's 3/12/88 
	and Olympia 10/13/91.

	I hope this was of some help.

The Capitol is a great place for a show.  I've seen phish everytime there, and
they always pull it off well.  At the last show (which was sold out like they
always are) I asked a guy there how many seats were sold.  He was pretty rude
about the whole thing, but I got a number of something like 1875 or
thereabouts.  The sound there is alright.  Taping on the balcony gives you a
boomy tape (is boomy a word?)  Down below it sounds great tho.

First off, this is my first ever messahe to the net, and I'm very psyched 
about it. I'm writing because I'm interested in getting tapes of shows from 
the Spring 92 tour. I'm ecspecially interested in the Portsmouth shows. I 
already have three showsfromthe spring(Campus Club, Roseland, Binghamton) but 
I feel the need for more. I also have many other shows I'd be willing to 
trade.

I'm also writing because I'm from the Albany area, and have some inside 
information on the Palace theatre which will be the sight of a fall show. 
I've seen the Wailers and Third World and several other artists at The 
Palace. It's an old theatre with alot of character, however it's in a very 
seedy part of Albany. There can also be a parking problem, but there are a 
few parking complexs nearby. There is a balcony, and the acoustics are pretty 
good. It probably seats around 1000-1500, and there's dancing space up front, 
in back, and in the aisles. I'm sure it will be a good show.

Hey there everyone!

Here's the information I have for the fall tour besides the information already
posted:

1) Phish will be playing the WBCN "Rock of Boston" concert at the Boston Garden
on October 30, along with the Spin Doctors, Michael Penn, Material Issue, and
a few other bands which I don't remember at the moment. Tickets are available
through TicketPro (1-800-828-7080) for $10 ($3.25 service charge at least on 
phone orders). I called Dionysian Productions to confirm it. I don't know if it
is reserved seating or general admission. (I forgot to ask when I called for 
tix)

2) Tickets for St. Michaels College go on sale Monday, Oct.19 for students
at St. Michaels and Wed., Oct. 21 at the Flynn Theater box office for everyone
else. Tickets are $10 for students (1 ticket per ID) and $15 for everyone else
and the show is General Admission.

3) Tickets for SUNY Stonybrook will be $10 for students (2 tix pre student?)
and something like $16 for everyone else. As far as I know the on sale dates 
are still the same as those previously posted.

Also, I agree with Shelly, lets see some net.gatherings before some of these
shows and other shows on the tour.

to it played that way.  Until. . .
	Tuesday, the LAWN BOY cassette I ordered

the _cassette_ sounds like it is at the normal speed.
The cassette is new and it says it's a remastered
version of the original LAWN BOY release.
	Did the folks at Electra botch the title
track on the CD, realize it, and fix the problem in 
the re-release on cassette tape?  I heard rumour that
Electra did this without the band's approval.
	I _really_ liked the JUNTA tape I got from
Dyonysian, until the car tape player mangled it. 8-(
I hope Electra dosen't tweak anything on JUNTA's
re-release later this month, I need a new copy.
	The picture of Fishman on the inside of the

My last band played Jump For Joy, and I've been fooling around with
