Our Fishman,
Who art in rhombus,
W00kie be thy name.
These hippies come
With guitar and drum
On tour as it is in Gamehendge.
Give this day our daily toke
And forgive us our WSP stats
As we forgive spreadheads that come to our Phish shows.
And lead us not into the Biscuits
But deliver us from Umphrey's

Who turned the lights out?

It's one of my favorite Phish albums. Say what you will about Friday and Thunderhead, but Anything But Me is probably my second favorite original slow song (behind Fast Enough For You), the title track is cool, Pebbles & Marbles, 46 Days and Walls of The Cave rock SO hard, and best of all, Seven Below and Waves were instant favorites for me, from the very first listen. Great album.

Oh, GM.N

I'm not sure why it didn't click with me back when it came out. But here I am over ten years later, and I can't stop listening to it. Maybe it was just like a fine wine and it took a few years to mature. Both the album and myself.

@mattsox94 - I totally failed at college in that I don't think I had a weekday morning where I could sleep in past 8:00 til my senior year. (due both to class and work-study.) But that was ok, as finishing classes early allowed me to play a lot of pickup basketball in the afternoons. A lot.

@johnnyd what are the chances of us discussing the intricasies of the Jam Band Grading System in person tomorrow? On a more serious note, what is my best bet for stopping off 89 somewhere to grab some Heady Topper? I'm meeting @supperballing up there and he is dying to try some.

Very high. Based on the last time I saw Pork Tornado, my opening bid for them is C-Grade Bar Band. That is up for discussion.

Go right to the source for the Heady Topper - the Alchemist cannery. On a Wednesday, they should definitely not be sold out. Less than a mile off Exit 10 (Waterbury/Stowe). Check google maps, and let me know if you have questions. They are open til 7:00, you can get tasters there.

Not sure what time I'm heading up. Most likely carpooling with one or 2 brahs from down here...will def keep you posted.

I agree.

Billy Breathes was the first album to drop when I became a fan. It's a good album on it's own, but more meaningful for me because I went to the store day one to buy it.

Hoist came out a few months before I was introduced to the band.

@johnnyd C-Grade Bar Band is fair. I will definately be hitting up the Alchemist tomorrow on my way up. Might fill my trunk if they'll let me. Think I am going to head up early and make a day of it since I have no work. Meeting @superballin and @officerjimlahey at some point, not sure when they are headed up.

Jimmymac03 2/05/13 9:29 am

Hoist was my first. Still my favorite album too... no second favorite. My dad thought it was awesome that Phish was from Vermont so we got Hoist. Story of The Ghost was the first to drop once I was a full on Phish phreak. That is my favorite album.

Farmhouse is a decent place downtown Bton to sample a variety of beers. But I've gotta plug Waterbury as well, esp if you're going "day trip" mode. There are 3 different places in town (walking distance of each other, about a mile from the Alchemist Cannery) where you can get a variety of Hill Farmstead and Lawson's beers on tap. The Blackback Pub, Prohibition Pig (the Alchemist's original spot) and Reservoir all have great beer lists, and serve food. Check their sites for exact hours, just in case.

nope she has a person that comes to her house and gives her massages and she used to do non surgical cosmetic crap ie laser scar treatment and peels.

i have given her flowers, a dried fruit and nut basket, cookies from dean and deluca. i am thinking a fresh fruit and preserves basket

I sent a Twat to the Nugs.net people last night asking them to eliminate CD tracking on their downloads.

I suck horribly at Twitter though. It has it's own lingo and mannerisms that I haven't mastered yet.

Twitter and Facebook are the ways to initiate change in this world. Grassroots at its core. If you get enough people piling on via social media, you'll undoubtedly get a response, and likely action.

Maybe I'll look up Nugs.Net on the Facebooks tonight and post on their wall about my CD Tracking gripe.
