I'm finally attending my first Phish show on 11/20 with my 20-something son (his first Phish show as well), it's so close to home that we'll probably even take a Metro bus to/from the show (and a cab if the show runs insanely late). Any advice for us, along the likes of "don't take the brown acid" or anything like that? We are both really looking forward to the show; I've listened to one of last year's Deer Creek, and three sets of music from Indio. I just know I will need to be very well rested for this show I really thought I'd missed every chance I'd ever get to see those guys, learning of this tour was a real surprise.
i love when people go to their first phish show. i love seeing there faces when the energy in the place is overwhelming. i brought my cousin's boyfriend and during the wilson chant he was like "DUDE THIS IS FUCKIN DEEP!!" haha blew his fucking mind. that was the hartford show. IMO the best show of the summer tour!! i made some chocolates for him he was beamin!!! haha have fun!!!
its going to be amazing! i went to my first in camden over the summer. we just got tix for the 11/24/09 show in philly for 35!
Well i just got back from the first night of the tour in detroit and it was a rager!!! I dont think their is anything you "have to know" just enjoy the show sounds like a great thing to do with your son they are playing amazing
i hope for how ever many i see them in the next few years i hear "heavy things" once. i hope they play it on tuesday in philly! oh please! im debating about making a sign saying play heavy things!
Almost time to go. I'm hosting a small afterparty and drum/jam session after the show too so I'm enthused re that as well. Wish I had time for a nap!
I caught Detroit too. I had a blast and thought it was a decent show. Had to check out the legendary Detroit venue before it got torn down. :cheers2:
