@bob:

i respect the band a lot as musicians. do you hear me hating on 'em? not at all. i don't know enough songs to do a proper review of it, and i wouldn't do the band justice. besides, tickets press get are held back by venues anyway a lot of times, so it's not taking away from you -- and i know the fox will deny press tickets if there's a great demand for fan tix.

chill, dude. aren't phish phans supposed to be laid-back?

true.

i would never get in the way of an uber-fan wanting to see their favorite band, though. of all people, i sure wouldn't. and i know that phish means a lot to folks.

Noticed that Fox season ticket holders are already posting on StubHub. Ticket prices from $265 to $288 (upper balcony). This will end up being one of those shows that most of us just hear about.

by the way, the RFT security box asked me to type "mango"....How appropriate.

It really sucks that tickets are not going to be available at normal metrotix outlets. Seems to me that this is likely to lock out most local people from this show. This is a ticket brokers wet dream. Unbelievable that the band would allow this to happen. This is going to be a show not witnessed by many local fans. Really uncool!!

I must say folks last night was the most intense night of my life. I was released from the hospital this morning, the doctor said i was lucky to be alive. With furthur tests i might have suffered slight brain damage, the doctors are at this moment unsure.
Yesterday me and a few buddies decided to drop acid, and during our trip we decide to smoke bowls. We were having a great time up until my friend said "hey i heard on a phish board that if you put gasoline in the bong it will get you way faded." So being the stupid ass stonner that i am, i decided to indulge. We went to the local Chevron and put in $1 of premuium with techron into my 3 foot roor. I took the first hit. At first i felt really dizzy, i started vomiting, and then i passed out. That night i woke up in the hospital with the worst headache i have ever had. Needless to say i am luck to be alive.

I must warn everyone to never try anything like this again. I realize i have a slight drug problem and i am now enrolled in a treatment center. If i can give anyone advice it would be to never try anything that is out of the ordinary, no strage drug combos. BE SAFE OUT THERE PEOPLE!

I borrowed this c.d. that has Grey cover and all the songs are recorded from 1984-1986. It is really cool to hear these songs in their infancy.

Here is how they are listed...
Alumni Blues, And So To Bed, You Enjoy Myself, AC/DC Bag, Fuck your Face, Divided Sky, Slave to the Traffic Light, Aftermath, Ingest, NO2, Fluff's Travels, Dog your Dog, He ent to the bog, Runs like an antelope, Minkin, Letter to Jimmy Page.

Any one else dig this album?

Holy shit...I'm in my friend's room, now. I don't even know what the fuck just happened. I was going out for the night about to grab food, when I realized after I got to the lobby that I forgot my ID card. So me and Ryan shoot back up to the 8th floor, and when I go into my room, its locked. No biggy i think, so i bust out my key and enter. I hear a shout of "holy...fuck out"...which I assume was him trying to say "holy shit, get the fuck out" and I see my room mate sitting in the middle of our COLD TILE FLOOR (i just thought it was weird and uncomfortable) literally dousing himself in hair gel all over his body. He has one of those big bottles of V9 or whatever hair gel, and he was naked, and it was all over his chest and legs and hair and I walked out right then and got out of there...

SHould be awkward when i return later tonight...what to do?

In physics today my teacher appeard to be bleeding from his ass. And by the end of the day the blood spot was bigger. A few friends of mine took pics with there phones, and ill try to post them.

I waited outside for phish tickets. Luckily my girlfriend got picked second and we got Phourth row centered tickets. But there were so many die hard fans who didnt get tickets. Screw the people who bought tickets who aren't real phans. Sorry to those who didn't get tickets.
