[Cubfanbudman100]

I could play the bass like that, I just don't want to...

[Phishboy26]

That girl does the same fucking dance the whole show.

[brianberek]

i think right there was the peak of 97, the best of Phish, the best stuff, the best year, you just heard it right there

[julia17long]

THIS is stoner music. Not Kid Cudi.

[unclejunglebass]

@jazzyrocka12 indeed.

[Stereotypeomega]

[Gradey3]

[Freedomisnorml420]

@Gradey3.......why not have candles on stage?

[jckofod]

After Jerrys death they started doing that

[lilcha85]

@Gradey3

Trey started burning them after Jerry Garcia died

[puntiagudos]

fucking intense!!!!!!

[dphayes5]

How come fish is wearing a shirt?

[lilcha85]

@dphayes5 Fall 97 Fish wanted to be more classy

[slackasaurus13]

he he....Mike was going around the parking lot in a golf cart that day..... unbelievable....

[Adamboms]

is it just me? or do the audience members all look completely wasted

[randomwootahhhhh]

come on, its phish. what do you expect there? americas best and brightest or a bunch of stoners?

[jazzcatuna]

You're an idiot. Phish is the best improvised music on the planet other than jazz. They have a following of idiots like you, plus the more educated music fans.

[Adamboms]

well Iv'e seen people do drugs at concerts but this is more than I've ever seen, that guuy with his shirt off looks like he's tripping 12 tabs of acid

[bikeMass]

Lucky guy.

[0724500]

If you'd heard all that went down, it would blow off both of your (little) ears.

[jojojigaboo]

@0724500 y u fish phaggot punks talk about gd?just stick to this gay ass bullshit teenage frat boy phake phunk band!

[Rjc0316]

ooooh wow.. seems like youve really looked into things randomwootahhh

[smokesomebuddah420]

dude... its a phish show

[Adamboms]

ive seen phish live before, awesome concert but they werent a tenth as wasted as these guys are

[brettt401]

i live about 15 minutes from weekapaug, Rhode Island, where this song is named after. The street signs are heavily guarded. still trying though

[ShawnyMartin]

i think rhode island police have other shit to worry about than guarding street signs haha, like the ridiculous availability of drugs.

[x16bitrevenge]

haha drugs arnt a big deal anymore.

anyone can get them anywhere.

just gotta know the secrets.

[markrulesallnow]

tight ass bassline!

[BritaniaRuleAgain]

this just gave me a tight ass smile

[ShawnyMartin]

gives me a tight ass hole

[acidmorrison420]

hahaahahahaha my bad i'm tweekin

[kossna]

A tight ass-smile? :)

I love xkcd references

[iphonescale]

iPhish Instrument for MooCow's BAND Application has arrived!

I got so excited about the tour... I had to make a instrument :)

Peep out my channel for download info.

woohoo!

[KanuZankoro]

Can someone tell me some other songs where the bassist slaps like this?

[frilloman828]

foam, ghost

[jeffsal]

Buried Alive

[fassman316]

One that popped into my head right away is You Enjoy Myself, about halfway through the song... during the "Boy...Man...God...Shit" part Mike slaps through the whole section. Heavy stuff, man.

[lilcha85]

@KanuZankoro

Mike Gordon plays a mean bass. He's more known for his creative "lead" basslines, than his slapping. But here are a few others you may like. Search youtube for a "Foam" from '92, "Brother" from '96-'98, "Split Open and Melt" from '94, any "Ghost" from '97-'98, a late 90's "Wolfman's Brother", "Shafty" and "Tube" from the Island Tour, "Cities" at The Greek last year.

If you are not sold after these, you have no hope! :)

[blastp]

this is all Mike on this one. awesome

[tootles548]

I was at this show and actually remember when the storm came up and jumping into the womens restroom with my girl. The next day we went to the beach in xtasy. Awsome time, cant wait to see you Phish back in action, 2009 bitches!!

[wyget]

where did u see their joining bak together in 2009?

cus theirs nothing on their website

[tootles548]

Its on their website, they are doing three nights in Hampton, VA. Then their going to announce more dates to follow on early 2009, look around the site you'll find it.

[wyget]

sry i thought u were reffering to a tour

i saw the shows wen i looked yesterday but i still c nothing on a tour

i hope they come to atlanta if they do though

[EchoCannon89]

these DVD clips should have a lot more views, this is Phish at its peak in '97

[DnMZen]

so great when they show the fans. a lot of phish videos are missing that key ingredient.

[gearsighted]

This was my first phish show, absolutely amazing experience, raining, lightning, and some of the greatest live music I could imagine. I"m psyched for the DVD!

[cletusthefetus4]

only 8600 views, and this should be in the top 100 youtube music videos

[aypee16]

i love phish but they are a bunch of nerdy guys ahah

[cletusthefetus4]

? These guys have more talent in their fingers than your entire family circle.

[melondy69]

thank you cletus

[TheEccentricHippie]

Did anybody listen to the live stream yesterday of this on LivePhishRadio?

[evilsponge7]

MIIIIIIMKE

[iamjenhearmeroar]

pretty fucking awesome!

[vandyke1920]

I wanna be that guy in the front with no shirt!

[TheEccentricHippie]

I know him, his name's Michael Ebinson. Haven't seen him in years. We used to smoke pot and go to shows all the time with a bunch of my old Phishheads... Wonderful times...

Well, I'm gonna go take some medication. I just got Gordon'd big time.

[nastyb00b00]

i just got gordon'd...damn

[aurzada]

Gordon's head bop is the rational response to that. A perfect compliment to his groove.

Wow, is this ever listenable and infectious. Sold.

[KyndestKid]

Phish is sick... send money!!!!
