I am listening to the show at Fins in Va Beach from 94. All acoustic. Such pure Keller. I love this almost as much as the loops he pulls off now. I can totally see why old KellerFreeks are not into the LOOP!
i hear ya on that. i love the loops but i love acoustic too! i was REALLY hoping he was going to play all acoustic during last years "Acoustic Planet" tour. that would've been awesome.
see... i tried convincing some friends of mine that old acoustic keller may be just as good/even better than the loops. thats the stuff i really dig...even on his FREAK albumn
First time I ever saw him was back when he looked like a caveman inbetween sets at a Stringcheese show and he didn't loop. While I love the looping he does now - it would be cool to see him get back to tha basics for a tour.
I would love to see an All Acoustic Keller show. Maybe we can all get together and pay Keller to play a show like that for us. Shouldnt cost to much if we all throw in on it!
My brother and a few of his friends from Rock the Earth had Keller play at Pie Party outside of Pittsburgh on May 12th, 2001. I unfortunately was unable to attend as I was down in Florida. I do believe he played all acoustic for the show and back then he hardly charged them anything. The artist for Phil and Friends made a poster commerating the event and it adorns my wall.

keller acoustic kicks so much ass....its what i fell in love with....but i think too may of us, get stuck in the past with how things used to be......i've just learned in the last couple years.....we all just gotta go with the flow.....everybody was so down on phish's new sound, but i loved it.....keller's loop jamming is so unique, and it really gets a crowd funked out!!! i mean real funked out....his show at SKI JAM was fucking unbelievable! but, he did play organic acoustic tunes as well.....we all just got to surrender to the flow.....its like when you fight a mushroom trip, its only down hill from there....just got to surrender, and let it take over....and let the music do that...you'll find you'll get everything you want and more.....
