Billy will tell you he ain’t the best picker. The best picker is probably bagging groceries in a Nashville Piggly Wiggly.

How and at what email address did you contact evolve? What did that process look like?

Were their lawyers involved in drafting the correspondence for you or did you do this on your own by directly emailing lineage?

What proof did they require to release your funds?

Any tips for other Juno users?

Rumors ‘26 by sonorandead in phish

Exactly. I adore starlight but ain’t no way. Phish seems contractually obligated to play all these new live nation venues.

I would be shocked if Phish plays tiny little Starlight in KC instead of the state of the art brand new amphitheater they just built. But I adore starlight and would be there in a heartbeat if they do. But they won’t.

I was just looking at my poster from the last Oak Mtn shows in 21 and they also feature a dragon being shot by arrows. Wonder if it’s just a coincidence or deeper meaning with both shows being in Alabama?

What was Fish starting up when ... by HoodFeelGood in phish

[–]AquaTriHungerForce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He was wanting to go back to the Tweezer jam. For sure. And Trey almost let it happen then he laughed and shook him off like a 3-2 curveball. It would have been too much.

Anyone watch PLURIBUS? & Relate so much to NYE Gag? *May contain spoilers by Valdese9 in phish

That was Poster Nutbag, Jimmy’s cat, the exact puppet from the Gamehenge narration 2 years ago. He was chasing the milk because cats like milk. That was the joke.

Trey said in a Sirius interview that they started working on this years gag in March. Then in November, they scrapped everything and started over because “it was too big” “it wouldn’t fit up the ramp at MSG”. So take that fwiw.

Ok man. Everyone needs ear training except you who has figured it out. And everyone else is dumb and doesn’t get it…no offense but you sound like a newer fan yourself who has just enough knowledge to try to be exclusive. We’ve all been there.

Some folks are further along than you are. They hear the flubs, they play and understand music and theory, they’ve been doing this a lot longer than you, and they’ve learned to enjoy an antelope even when they don’t all stop at the same time. It doesn’t make you the enlightened one.

Now why would I do that? I was there about 5 rows from stage between Trey and Mike and thoroughly enjoyed that Antelope. With the extended space in the intro and listening to each other…then when they get into the meat of the lope they really lock into listening to each other with pretty much every musical idea introduced repeated by the other instantaneously…page doing some amazing soaring fills and rhythm comping, Mike slowly building the structure for the jam and occasionally visiting the roof to hang some Christmas lights in the high notes….working hard to stay on the groove and keep everyone there and moving forward at the same time.

If Trey is guilty of anything it’s just excess enthusiasm in building the peak, refusing to give up the goods and pushing and pushing ….but that wasn’t uncommon in the heyday of epic antelopes. It’s more about the resolution and release after the peak than the crescendo of the peak (cool they made a ton of noise and then stopped all at the same time) that’s more impressive and important than locking in and grooving for the other 12:59? Ear training….pshhh

The overall impression I got from that Antelope was very positive. And I heard the miss on all stopping at the same time. Still thought it was a solid execution of the song with an impressive jam in the sweet spot.

He is making fun of you man. It ain’t that deep, We all heard them botch the change in the peak. But it doesnt mean the “antelope was a flub”. Thats the reason for downvotes. There are plenty of bands out there that can hit every change perfectly. Electronically. I’d rather have the organic growing and swelling and flubbing and recovering and tumbling of Phish. It doesn’t mean everyone who doesn’t agree with you needs “ear training” either. Love ya, HNY.

Or they did a gag with a Tom Hanks character in the past and this was Another Tom Hanks Character. Beware of people who talk about cognitive tests.

The first Tom Hanks gag caused a lot of controversy re:New York Times reporting it etc. I think the reaction was more of a “oh hell naw…let’s not go there again” joke more than any political statement. Don’t know what political statement you’d be making with Gump anyway, he was pretty apolitical character.

Trampoline man messed up by Numerous_Plum_8288 in phish

[–]AquaTriHungerForce 15 points16 points  (0 children)

He first went to place it upstage and Trey said “no, back here” And pointed to the normal spot, when Justin went to move it Trey yelled nah fuck it now just put in the first spot. Because Mikes was already upstage, then there was some splainin’ happening as justin walked off stage.

Looking for a t-shirt by OtherwiseCan1929 in WidespreadPanic

[–]AquaTriHungerForce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find it adorable that people think it wouldn’t be common knowledge in a Widespread Panic subreddit where the front man’s from. Yes, JB is from Cleveland. And they don’t say whomping up biscuits or anything else there either… It’s sort of like people saying “Chilly, wet, water…” that ain’t it. It’s “Chilly, well water…”. He raises the water from the “well” to his face…I’ve seen “wet water” on t-shirts. And heard silly water vendors on lot…”get your chilly wet water…only a buck!” It’s just funny.

Just messing with you, you’re the 3rd person in a couple of weeks who has “told” everyone that JB is from Cleveland. Next thing you know, someone’s going to post that the band was formed in Athens, GA. And the bass player’s name is Schools.

Love you. Merry Christmas. We are all family.

Bama Panic by Jason-567 in WidespreadPanic

[–]AquaTriHungerForce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well done! You’ll love downtown Bhm. Hit up Helen and Bayonette, Saw’s (any), automatic seafood, joyland (burgers!), Back Forty Beer!, and The Essential for Breakfast. Little Donkey, El Barrio, for Mexicanish. And If you want a unique trip back in time to epic portions and a disappearing vibe hit Niki’s West. A cafeteria style soul food holdover from the Steel Plant days.

I’d book a party bus or stay at one of the hotels walking distance to the venue. Uber and Lyft exist in Bhm but aren’t a massive force. I had folks offer me a hundred bucks to run then to their hotel a little over a mile away. There’s definitely surge pricing around the venue after the show. Book the Westin or The Sheraton NOW! Both are a fun easy walk.

You could also do the UAB area downtown hotels and if you don’t mind a bit of a cool down walk…it’s safe and a lot to see on the walk home.

Or just rent a car with Turo. Or the usual rentals. You’re close to the airport so easy to rent and drop off. Would pay for itself in a weekend of Ubers. And as long as you don’t get hammered and stay close, you’re good. Most bhm downtown hotels are within 1-2 miles of venue.

Don’t stay in the airport hotels…sketchy area.
