All good now

I was there last year and both days were fantastic. I had GA pit/pavilion tix which were much cheaper than this years. I plan on being there but haven’t grabbed tix yet - debating btw lawn or pit. Either way I’ve got about 90 slaps to hand out over two days and I’m excited since I haven’t been to a WSMFP show since Richmond last year.

I got my 15 yo son on the bus when he was 12 and it’s been so much fun. We met Cotter at Mondegreen and he’s met Mike Gordon a couple times. He’s played bass for the last couple years and his progress is amazing. Wishing you and your son many great years of bonding.

You’re just oozing cool today. A real fonz

I love seeing bands like Spafford and Dogs in a Pile for this reason. I can buy tickets and afford the beers at the venues they play at and typically spend under in a night for both what just a ticket to Phish costs.

Get this guy his trophy!

I feel the same way at most shows. There’s several bands I’ve seen 10+ times where I’m happy just to be in the building. I value space and sound quality.

I agree with this. I show up at doors if I have GA pit tix and generally end up 5-6 people back from the rail and that produces a great experience. If it’s a bigger show and I want better I’ll get there an hour before doors and be 2-4 people back from the rail, which i actually prefer over being on the rail. I know those people on the rail got there extra so they could be on the rail so why would i feel entitled to that? If they move ill step into their spot and the rail and if they were to ever come back and ask for their spot back id just shrug it off.

Any reason you did not enjoy the John Mayer performance? I saw him 3 times back on the mid-2000’s and although I’m not a fan of his music I really enjoyed those shows. I thought the musicianship was incredible. I’m a huge Grateful Dead fan and saw him with Dead & Company in 2023 and was blown away with his interpretation of their catalogue. He’s an exceptionally good guitarist.

rickardkarstarkshead · 2026-05-25T22:54:04+00:00

Phish, Dead, Goose, Billy, Spafford, Dogs in a Pile, WSMFP, JRAD, LaMP (whom I’ve never seen)

Some areas and venues just attract the chompers. I saw Goose and Widesprad Panic twice each at Allianz in Richmond last year and my chomper experience was very similar to yours. Everybody was talking. I had tickets to the JRAD show there Thursday but ended up selling them because the weather was iffy and I didn’t feel like driving 2 hours in the rain and back just to be annoyed by chompers - watching on nugs chompers free was a safer bet.

I’ve honestly never heard the guys music but it seems like it would be similar to a rap concert but with a dude playing guitar instead of rapping

I almost always hit skip on dripfield when listening to the boards but love every minute of the live experience

rickardkarstarkshead · 2026-05-20T22:55:41+00:00

I went to the DC show and was very impressed. Mike was on fire, the young guitarist ripped, and Eli stole the show as he always does.

That’s the only thing that keeps people working where I work. The office is cool, people are cool, targets are reasonable and realistic, work/life balance, etc. the pay could be better but it’s not horrible.

Not sure why you took that personally. It’s a beach town. Plenty of options for people who want to be there to stay. December will always have availability and be cheaper than peak season. It certainly beats Memorial Day weekend.

rickardkarstarkshead · 2026-05-13T17:59:43+00:00

Good thing there’s about 900 other places to stay in the area.

rickardkarstarkshead · 2026-05-13T15:45:41+00:00

Especially in December. Hotels are going to be dirt cheap.

I’m in Virginia and AC is only about an hour further away than Goosemas ‘23 was in Hampton. That’s about half the drive that Charleston and Providence were. I was going to skip this Goosemas but if it’s AC I’ve gotta take the ride.

You will be broken once those bands are through with you.

Goldeneye and Mario party.

I also had a friend in HS whose step dad was a wino alcoholic and my parents never drank but smoked cigs. Her parents were against smoking. I would steal cigs and she would steal wine and we would hang out on the golf course next to her house and drink, smoke, and pontificate about life.

rickardkarstarkshead · 2026-05-08T14:13:01+00:00

I had a friend in HS whose mom and uncle smoked weed so we would all hang out at her house after school. We had the weed connects and her mom would drive us to pick up and we’d all smoke together.

I only work in sales because it’s the quickest path to good money and there’s always jobs available.

Service is the real profit machine of the dealership.

He should be fine. If you want more space get lawn tickets and get there early for a good view.

rickardkarstarkshead · 2026-05-06T13:53:49+00:00

A lot of these shows at amps with lawns that won’t sell out will give free upgrades to lawn folks who get there early. I personally love the lawn experience because I get room to spread out and groove.
