does anybody have any info as to which of these shows will be GA, and which will 
be reserved seating?  or how about info as to what the venues are like (are 
there seats?  capacity?  etc.)  sorry to say, but this probably will factor into 
my decision of how far i'm willing to roadtrip to a show

yes, i know, i could just call the box offices, and i probably will

the only venue i've been to is bailey hall at cornell, so i'll share my 
thoughts:

large auditorium, seats about 2000; seats both on floor and in balcony; seats 
are way crammed together, not much room for dancing; acoustics are better than a 
gym, but pretty lacking for what an auditorium should be; only been to 2 
concerts at bailey, one was GA, one was reserved, so who knows what Phish will 
be (although my guess is reserved)

anyone else?

Yes, there was a big discussion of this many months ago.  The eventual
conclusion was that the Hunt's (or was it Fin's?) Bar tape with all the
Dead covers was NOT Phish (the band confirmed this).  However, the tape
more recently mentioned (with some Dead covers) seems like it IS Phish,
since it features Phish originals (Makisupa, Traffic Lt.) and Cities
(which they definitely used to play -- it's on an old song list I have
from the band's promo package).

So, I think we're talking about two different tapes here (either that, or
portions of two different bands' sets are mixed on the same tapes, but that
should be obvious from the recording).  Of course, that begs the question
of why all the Burlington bands of '85 were playing the same Dead tunes... :->

Anyone have the original postings on this issue?

Gosh, Jeremy, if you were wondering -- I'm glad you asked!
By all means, the phish.net is here for *everyone* to contribute to
and enjoy; if you have something to say, please do so!
(Even if you don't have much to say, feel free to just pop in and
say hello.  IMHO, the community here is a big part of what the
phish.net is all about.)

On a related topic - I saw the introductory message recently for
the horde mailing list.  If people feel a need for it, then I'm 
glad it's happening; but at the same time, it seems as though a lot
of that traffic has been coming through here (Spin Doctors, WSP, ARU,
etc.), and it doesn't seem to be bothering anyone (as far as I can
tell, we don't have a volume problem) -- so why should we fragment
ourselves if we're all happy together in this newsgroup / list?
I'm just asking, since I don't know how everyone else feels about
it...thoughts?

Yep.  He was at the new years 91-92 show in Worcester.  It was great.

Hi Shelly.....are you going to come east for the tour and visit us
in Vermont?  Huh, Huh.....are you??? nudge, nudge....... ;-)

No, I didn't get a chance to go on up.  It fell on a real bad night
for me 'tween a late night radio show and a late night at work... :-(

So, sez I, call Sean who said he was going.......ring ring ring.......
He didn't go either..............The local radio station dropped some
hints that Phish might show up to jam, but that was kind of expected 
by just about everybody anyway.  This brings up a thought that has been
going on in my head for awhile, and I haven't mentioned for fear of
flames..........See, I have a problem with this "hero-worship" attitude
that is getting heaped upon these guys.  Living up here in VT makes things
a little different for me in this way I guess.  You see, I work with someone
who lived with them and worked for the band in the Junta days and the 
Colorado 2-our days.  They are just regular guys........of course!
He gets a chuckle from the "Wow, I saw Paige in a rest area on the
Thruway in the middle of the night between......" posts.

To have them show up locally and jam with ARU/Shockra/your-name-here doesn't
necessarily shake the walls.  Shit, they show up here at my office to
visit my friend when they are home.  I also do a radio show at Goddard and
it is real interesting to hear the reactions by alums, etc. who knew them
when about the latest success.  Sure, these guys are awesome and I love
to see the perform, but they are not superheros and I don't think they are
comfortable with that .......This same buddy plays in a local bluegrass
band along the lines of Old and in the Way and if the band is in town,
someone almost certainly stops on by.  Anyways..........I'll get off
the soapbox and go home...oopps, I have to keep working.  Flames to 
say.goodnight.george.EDU.

Later on and have fun............Jay

p.s. The colors are peaking this next week or 10 days in Vermont.  Come on
up for the psychedelic natural fun.

p.p.s Hey Shelly, did I mention you should come to Vermont for the start of
the tour?????

inspiration from a short-lived (possibly Burlington-based) group called
Juncture.  Has anyone else heard this?  The person who told me knows nothing

tour lasts 25 days, and the band is off six of those
days.
  To whomever is compiling setlists for the Helping

Hey People,
	Here in Plattsburgh we pick up the Burlington radio station (WIZN 106.7)and a friend was listening yesterday (or the day before, can't remember which)
when the D.J. announced that Phish was in some studio in Burlington and pholks
were welcome to come on down and see 'em.  This is all the info. my friend had
and unfortunately he found me after the fact thus we couldn't go.  So I'm 
curious, what exactly was up?  Did they jam or were they just hangin' out?  Did
anyone go or does anyone know what I'm talking about?

	On a related topic, since so many people have heard rumors of Phish 
doing shows that have not been announced yet does anyone know if more shows are
expected to be added to their tour (I'm not asking specific venues but just if
they plan to add any more)?  Also, I hate to add to rumors but... I've heard
rumors around here that maybe there might be a Burlington Halloween show or at 
least a Halloween show somewhere, anyone?????  It be CRAZY as Halloween is on a
Saturday this year!!!

Hello out there...
A friend of mine said he saw a request for God Street Wine tape trading on 
the phish net recently. I used to hang with GSW a lot, and I have many tapes.
I don't have a lot from the last year or so, but I've got some sweet 89-90ish
stuff. If you've only recently begun listening to GSW, you should check out
some early stuff. They used to play a bunch of cool songs that they've sort of 
left behind.Did you know they used to have a full time trumpet player?
I'd be interested to hear how any of you first heard of GSW, and where you
first saw them.I'd post their adress so people could join the mailing list,
but I can't seem to find it. As far as I can remember it's:
				God Street Wine
				Spring Valley Road
				Ossining, NY
I do not know the zip code, and there is no house number.
I'd love to hear from anyone who wants to trade tapes or something

them back to you.

Hey,
I just had to wite to express my joy at the fact that it looks like the rumors
which have been floaing around campus for weeks may be true.
Phish will be playing at the Palace Theatre in downtown Albany.
It the same size as all the other theaters they have been playing recently(
about 2000 seats I think)
Another rumor is that either Widespread Panic, or Kindred Spirit will be
opening. Any word?

Spin Doctors are playing Univ. at Albany  for FallFest (I'm not sure of the
date yet, but I'll post it soon)
