Thanks for posting that, love the story of hearing Tweezer on the radio with his daughters! Some sweet quotes in there:

"My dream is that one person one day would hear some song that I wrote and have it brighten their day a little bit," he says. "I absolutely live for that, and if that can happen, then it would make me really, really happy. That's pretty much the extent of my wanting to have a hit."

"What I'm doing when I'm staring out over the crowd," he explains, "I'm listening for the music coming out of the air and then I'm just playing that. A lot of times I try to just stare up into the lights till they sort of blind me and I start to see colors and stuff. And if I look right into the lights, my glasses have moisture on them so they start to break into prisms and stuff and then voom, I'm gone."

& definitely still talking around the elephant in the room...

"[Phish ending] was really a success in that sense. I had to get out of [Vermont], I moved, Fish moved, we dropped the giant overhead and all the pressure. And the social scene that we had, that was just..." He trails off. "The end result of all that was that I was losing perspective on the band and the music. I couldn't hear it, I just couldn't. I didn't understand what was going on, but it was just too much in some way, and I lost my ability to hear Phish music."

I liked the story of Trey hearing the California love Tweezer on the radio, but he got the location wrong haha. That was in Oregon.

The part that says "It's no longer the story of that brilliant, weird, bushy-red-haired kid who got suspended from the University of Vermont for stealing a human hand and a goat's heart from the science building.", a friend told me she read about this in a book about Phish but I don't remember what it was called. Does anybody know which book it may have been?

I read about it in the Phish Biography.

Nice
