...and I say "great!" I really didn't like them at all. I remember their performance on SNL a couple years ago and IMO, they were awful! I figure, if you're going to appear on TV, this is your chance to maybe expand your fanbase and get a few more CDs sold. But the songs they picked...OY VEY!
Anyway, good riddance to phishy rubbish.

I am from Vermont and many people there liked them (obviously) and I never saw the point. We already have (or had) a Grateful Dead and they do it just fine.

I saw this news earlier today and I feel great about it. Screw those hippies. Not keen on the Grateful Dead either.

I don't like the Dead either, which is why I find Phish particularly annoying. What I meant (I guess) was there is already a band who does that jam style of hippydom justice. We REALLY don't need two.
Kathryn, yep, I am from Middlebury, VT. My mom still lives in the lovely state.

i have a bad feeling that this will mean that more hippies will now find their way to Primus shows. it had already begun, but now the floodgates will be open. i went to UMASS Amherst so i have some tolerance. that was almost ten years ago and my super powers are now fading.

Comparing The Dead and Phish?
The Dead is tired jams - yawwwwwn!
Phish is at least quirky and upbeat with their music and I actually enjoy quite alot of it. Although since 97 their live show has gone straight down the shitter and I commend them for calling it quits before they make giant asses out of themselves.
Bye Phish
See ya around |

I was born in Burlington, Vermont. I spent the first 5 years of my life there. I've been back a number of times since moving to Michigan. But it's been some time now. Last time I was in VT was summer of 1999. I need to get back out there.

I kinda liked their "Bouncing 'Round the Room" song.

I remember waking up to that song once. (In '95?)
Very pleasant memory.

Well there's more than just Phish for these dirty hippies with their horrid music... Heard of String Cheese Incident. A friend of mine wants to go to a festival in Nashville that's nothing but these shit bands. Jam bands my ass, I don't want to watch these stoners dick around on guitar, much less pay to do so. I almost saw String Cheese Incident because I wanted to see the opening act(The Flaming Lips) but in the end decided I'd wait for the Flaming Lips to play with someone else I would actually like to hear. The same friend that wants to go to that festival followed String Cheese Incident around on tour, I think that would be like hell for me, seriously.

I'll be spending about five weeks in Burlington this summer. Where can I expect to see some good shows? Any cool, intimate venues?

One of my students asked to be excused from class for a week so he could follow String Cheese Incident. I flat out said no. Later in the semester, I cancelled class for a week "due to illness" so I could see a bunch of BF+theCs shows. My dirty, hypocritical secret. |

I still see it as a good call. Nothing good can come from a band like the String Cheese Incident, except maybe their ticket system, anything to rival ticketmaster is nice.

Yes, unfortunately there are still hippies about. When I saw Dylan there were a bunch of hippies there, flowers in their hair spinning around like morons.

This can only mean one thing: set your watches for a reunion tour in twelve years (or something like that. I guess the lack of certainty ruins the "set your watches" bit but hey...)
