I'm talking about Phish of course! We had a rockin time as always Sunday night in Bethel Woods - site of the original Woodstock festival. A killer bbq (my sister Sara is a whiz at setting up complicated things like grill devices on the spot) and some delicious brews (thanks Bron!) set us on the right path. Our crew was augmented by Vinick, who finally popped his phish cherry in time for his 30th B-day (which he shares with Bob Dylan, who just turned 70 - we're seeing him in Tel Aviv in under 3 weeks!), Bron's awesome wife (Michal) and in our car, a cute-as-can-be 7-month pregnant Simone who was grooving hard with our unborn child, baby bump in tow, my brother (and the most serious musician in our crew) Mo, and my good, good friend Noam, who as usual showed up with no ticket and got into the show for $40 even (face was $45 for the lawn - no idea how he always pulls it off!). We also ran into tons on people we knew there, including Bars - been ages since we chilled at Phish together - and Howie F.! Also ran into Raffi G. - they were right near us on the lawn.
The show was a great time as always with perfect weather, a great setlist and some sweet ass jams. So what's with the title of this post?
I just downloaded the entire show free on Phish's live download site - all I needed was the bar code on my ticket stub. And the just dropped prices on lawn tickets to $45 - and that includes a free high quality download of the show from the band! How many bands would do that for their fans?! Thanks again for the sweet memories - we'll see you next summer no doubt!
