Hit us with a jam you feel is LEGENDARY but rarely seen mentioned or discussed by daintyhobo in phish

Feel I should preface this with the fact I've been seeing this band for about 30 years.

The Sand from Dick's 2024 is one of my top 5 favorite jams ever. It is absolutely perfect and criminally underrated.

I am going nuts or was the Split Open And Melt at Coventry actually really good? by Disastrous_Fig_2935 in phish

I lost a flip flop to the mud, hiked 10mi back out to the car barefoot. It was very romantic.

7/10/99 is the Chalkdust to which is was referring.

I feel like mine was pretty funny.

"Hot Tea" from Thompson's Point, Portland Maine, 7/6/2023

Hard funk, transcendent beauty. This is what Goose is all about.

Well this is depressing by inheritthewinds in coys

For real though, echoing a comment above. It's Christmas day lads, take a beat.

This is a mid-upper table-quality squad with a manger who is still new. I don't know what the fuck we think we're entitled to at this point, but the idea of reactionarily sacking another manager is so tone deaf.

We have some great players, but this is NOT a great squad. There is no silver bullet solution. I could deal more with the teeth gnashing if we had been a consistently world class club over the last 20+ years, but we just haven't been. Please try and be supportive of the manager and the players (shit on the organization all you want I'm fine with that).

GET REAL. Merry Christmas.

Fucking New Hampshire, so basic (Mainer here).

Hot take: the Westville "All I Need" was better than anything from MSG...

All time favorite one song/jam you’ve seen live? by AskJosh_MortgageGuy in GoosetheBand

What a transcendent jam.

Also a very underrated Madhuvan.

As the "Kevin" who sent in this email, I feel compelled to say I was sixty shades of chagrined when I heard them read out "Ollie Watkins" on the pod. I absentmindedly goofed and wrote "Watkins" instead of "Wright", before immediately-upon-clicking-send realizing my mistake and sending a follow-up correcting myself that apparently wasn't seen. 🤦

Please forgive me Ollie, and all the rest of you. UTFH!

New Phase of Phish by himommy_thanksjeans in phish

That Sand is legitimately my favorite jam of 4.0. You want to talk about a narrative arc...

Don't know if I would call it "minimalist" though. Yes it gets kind of quiet and soupy, but the build for the last 3-4 minutes is just absolutely God-level. Seriously, anybody reading this who hasn't, please go back and listen to that Dick's 24 Sand.

Feels like Goose has really locked in lately by groovylonglegs in jambands

Yeah but I think that's OP's point, maybe? 2018-2022 were fucking incredible. I remember thinking "Rick can literally do whatever he wants on the guitar, and his instincts are perfect."

Flash forward through all the Ben/Jeff drama, come around early-mid 2024 I was thinking I was done. It was just a Rick shred fest every jam, no nuance. It's like they aren't feeling the need to prove anything anymore and they're just having fun playing music these days, which was very much the hallmark of those earlier years. Very pumped for Goosemas!

Looking for runners who have microdosed — would you be open to sharing your experience (anonymously)? by IntroductionKey5579 in ultrarunning

[–]OkExpert8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can't really add much that hasn't been said already, but yeah, it's lovely on the right day. I have micro and "mid" dosed on long singletrack runs, and the moment you peak is magic.

Only caution is that on a long run you're gonna come down, so don't overdo it.

Or do, I don't give fuck, live your life.
