Morning all. Shit continues to be nutso here.

Round Room has still not clicked as a full album for me. Of course, the songs I like on it, I LOVE.
View Spoilers

@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.
Early isn't too bad. I'm done classes early both days so I can go do work, do homework, run and of course listen to Phish. I'm trying to get through a show a day and my schedule helps.

DriedupGoliath Morning all, later post than usual since it's been a hectic morning.

Slowly getting back into the Grateful Dead again. I originally got into the Grateful Dead by walking around an FYE, seeing the cover of Live/Dead, thinking, "That looks cool," and listening to a sample of the first song on it, which of course, is "Dark Star." Hearing Jerry's guitar sound instantly hooked me, and I was off, downloading shows left and right. I eventually heard all I wanted to, and searched for the next band to dive into like that. Logically, it was Phish. Now I'm slowly moving back into Grateful Dead land. An earlier forum post has piqued my desire to listen to 11/17/73, it looks very tasty.

@Axilla_part_2_Not_Part_1
I mean, who hasn't had their penis twisted that hard?

@mattsox94 and @johnnyd
I only ever took one 8am class in my 4 years of college. My typical schedule was wake up at 11 or 12, have a few classes, work as a supervisor at the dining hall, and come home and do homework (beginning of the week) or drink (end of the week)

Also, I wish I wasn't about 8 and a half hours from all this great beer in Vermont. Heady Topper is currently my most wanted to try beer on my list. Once I have some time I'll have to make a weekend of it if Joelle wants to join.

Same with me. I believe that owes to the forums inablility to make a collective decision. Nobody stepped up and assumed the role of "big toe" on those decisions.

You don't think a semi-organized barrage of tweets at Red Light Management and Phish would at the very least get noticed by them, possibly get a response, and perhaps create change?

Look at the recent Applebee's debacle, or Shapriogate. They're getting attention and responses.

In a word? No.

There's zero motivation for Phish to make a change. "Boy, I wish these tweets would go away, let's announce the dates!" There's nothing unethical about their practice and it really just sounds like one of the biggest #firstworldproblems ever. They do what they do for a reason and I would be very confident that there's more in play from a logistics and contract standpoint than anyone will comprehend.

...and this Shapiro(vice) thing is even worse. Embarassing. Get another f***ing hobby if you need to harass a comedian.

JayDubya Permalink
JayDubya A barrage of tweets at Phish and RLM like "release the dates yo" would go unnoticed certainly. But a valid argument as to why it would benefit everyone might at least get a second glance.

RLM is in the business of making money, as is Phish. The sooner we get the info the more fans are likely to be able to make dates work for them. And perhaps it's too late this year, but in the future maybe they start planning earlier?

I realize it's a longshot but I'm having more fun this morning worrying about this than my actual job. So humor me.

muggleballs Good morning!

Part of me doesn't want dates because I'll just get the depression if there's no Vegas shows. Or I'll still be waiting months later for west coast dates

But having dates now would also make me happy because I could spend my time planning my girl terr trip and potentially starting my phishy decoupage project

Life is so hard

@ericwyman - of course its about the biggest first world problem ever. Please realize (if you havent wasted the 10 mins reading the thread) that its pretty much tongue-in-cheek idea designed as much for personal entertainment as getting results.

I give a shit too. I also agree with wanting the damned 52 glitch gone and also the ability to quote yourself without hassle. KT can be useful to respond or correct something you said in a previous post if the 5 minute edit window has been missed.

You bet, just, like I said, double check the hours.
Blackback serves the Mad Taco that me and @birmy are always talking about, but not sure when they open.
The Reservoir has very decent bar food at good prices (and 38 draught lines). Pretty sure they are open for lunch.
Pro Pig is like a smokehouse - lots of pork. Outstanding cocktail menu, but I think that would be my third choice of the three. I don't think they open til evening though anyway.

Jimmymac03 @johnnyd leaning towards Prohibition Pig if I can. I talk with the chef there on the phone all the time. Would be cool to meet him face to face. I also judge restaurants on what they purchase from me and how knowledgeable the person seems about what they are purchasing. Prohibition Pig orders some awesome stuff from us. I was sold the first time he asked me if we could get Pork Belly.

Ha! Prohibition Pig -> Pork Tornado just makes sense! Hope they are open for lunch. If not the resevior would be cool too. I speak with their chef as well but not as much as Prohibition Pig.

Not sure if you watch log news but WCAX had a great piece on Three Penny Tap room last night. We sell to them as well and they are def in my list of places to check out.

Can't argue with that!
Actually it seems like their new chef is doing much better with the food. We tried them a bunch of times from when they opened through about 6 months in, and the food just wasnt very good for the price. But recently we've been hearing some good things - good enough that we'll definitely give it another shot.
