Phish - October 20, 1998 - Guyute

[joeoldstate]

How many people were at that show? Sure must have been a fun time...

[axelmowmers]

Amazing!

[griffinmpable]

god fish is just so in the zone his drumming is absolutely flawless in these

[cranegirl99]

thtz my bday(= October 20, 1998

[liamesau]

My dogs name is guyute

[phishinvan]

I wish there was a "Fishman Cam" for this whole video. He seriously needs to do a drumming DVD. He has much knowledge to drop. I love this band.

[xanos4225]

I died from taking a Mitsubishi Triple Stack E pill at Alpine Valley in 2000. It was during this song I passed out and died. Then when they sang "I'm bouncing like a new born elf" I came back to life and puked my guts out. True story.

[WastedChannelName]

this is the night i was born!

[Phishboy26]

Back in the day from 94-98 nobody could touch Trey when it came to tone. He had i think 3 or 4 different rigs during those years but that is what made his tone unique.

[NHDrummer93]

im in love

[gryffindor863]

I think some of them were actually nervous during this. I can tell by the way their playing, at least mike and trey, the really tense hands and the need for improvisation right after they mess up

[Jobinationator7]

mike looks bored : /

[jets9119]

best guyute ever. hands down

[Freedomisnorml420]

@jets9119 i'm going to have to disagree....listen to the version from live phish volume 20 (12/29/94)

[PhactorPhiction]

Life wouldn't be the same without this band. They just f'ing rule!

[matthewshelvey]

6:35 the ultimate trey face.

[TheGuelahpapyrus]

@ phoundwaldo if you like fishman on this track, you need to listen to the 10-20-10 version of guyute in Utica, NY. I was there and fishman lit the place on fire with this song.

I just wanted to say that I wish PBS had used a camera man, or whoever is in charge of switching from camera to camera, who was familiar with Phish. They missed a lot of great stuff on this track by pointing the camera at the wrong guy at several different points in this recording. Other than that, this is awesome.

[PhoundWaldo]

fishman most under rated drummer ever. No other drummer could bring to this music what fish does

[Freedomisnorml420]

@PhoundWaldo i agree 100% but i think its also safe to say all 4 of them are the most underrated musicians on the planet.

[ABBPhan81]

1:45



[jesuslovested]

absolutely amazing. i don't understand why some people hate on this song. i thought they were going to throw this out in charleston... but my friend my friend somehow squeezed it's way out of the jam.

i love watch page keep time on this song too. he's a musical genius... well... they all are.

[notmefuckingname]

this is and will always be one of my favorite songs and favorite phish break downs

[prophetdude2]

Oh, my ears

they're just awful.

[nakedpools]

Yes Trey is good, but Page has my vote for most musical in this band.

[joeyac14]

trey is insanely the best

[seilndy]

MY B-DAY IS OCT 20

[ColonelForbin1971]

I can't express the amount of joy this brings me. 

[mywire]

Best Guitar Tone in the Business !!!! Enjoy !!!!

[mywire]

The Best Guitar Tone in the Business !!!! Enjoy !!!!

[pcburgh01]

Trey nailed that. I don't play but that can not be easy! That's why we love him folks!

[thezepp925]

@ 7:49 its like trey's hand got too hot from ripping too many crunchy riffs in a row, he needed to cool his hand off

[concretejungle80cruz]

trey's tone sounds so good here! I wish he would go back to this rig on or after this current 10' tour! !

[TravelinMan555]

I like this show on TV ! it's my precious memories. Thank you for uploaded

[griffinmpable]

3:18 is magic

[Fonix79]

'98 was such a sick year for them

[astocker08]

well i wouldn't say underrated... just, never enough praise could be given to him as a singer/guitarist/musician that he deserves. ! in addition to Page.., Mike,.. anddd I can't forget Jon.

[matthewshelvey]

4:31 = jizzz in my pants

[achildwithoutaneye]

3:52

[tynnsey]

i just came

[Kbasa1]

Trey, Gordon, and are spot on in this, as usual.

[Pixieonthe7]

what a song. what a fuckin song. Can't stop the madness!

[DannoGolightly]

favorite phish song.... this is kinda the "creepy uncle version" but.. still good...

[KyndestKid]

Trey is a Jedi!

Boogie on...

[popomczowzow]

my summary of this song:

*beginning

*whistling

*trey playing guitar better than you can in your dreams

*fast loud trippy part

*trey kicks more musical ass

*slow quiet whispering trippier part

*basically the beginning again

*end

[AtmaRising]

the best, simply put.

[samoshillamo]

where is this?

[Rome012]

ha trey looks so funy

[UmphreysProwler]

Its pure music genius.

[lo7angus]

nella parte centrale assomiglia mooolto alla song della PFM Celebrecion XD....rimangono sempre dei grandi

[phasinated]

That's why we don't want no nice guy.

[tkok]

@phasinated nice guy

[mikegordon420]

MIKE FUCKING GORDON!

[briannloo]

Amen mike fucking G

[LSDandDMTargoodforme]

guyute was the ugly pig

[jgariano3]

An epic tune!

[happystupid75]

I'd drop $40 for these sessions on DVD. Such a great time for Phish... such a great environment too.

[PUIncubus]

thank u for for putting the Sessions at West 54th up! ..... they are amazing... i only had a few downloaded.... i love youtube

[StinglyJ]

epic!

[Rosario3338]

Trey has to be the most underrated guitarist ever.

[aznmetalmunkey]

@Rosario3338 I think thats the best part about him, and its probably what he wanted..

[Malzarin]

@Rosario3338 To people who have a clue, he is not. I had the good fortune of seeing this song the 2nd time they played it live, it has remained a gem to me ever since.

[bbrj127]

I love the whistling at about 0:50

[richiemabie]

BEST TONE IN THE INDUSTRY

[jamesbrevard]

@richiemabie I think Frank Zappa is the most underrated guitarist....My opinion...

[pazleen]

Trey is totally fucked. Like, bat shit crazy. But in a good way. :)

[richiemabie]

he has mental issues

[tim3Child]

seeing this song live was so fucking epic

[everythingever]

I just saw it live for the first time last less than a week ago. Ahhhh, sweet bliss.

[ugadawgs1984]

Story of the Ghost album is sick. This is a great example of why. How many twists and turns does Guyute have? What a song... Kind of crazy such a work of art revolves around the story of an ugly pig who danced a jig...And how scary/creepy/strange is "I'm bouncing like a newborn elf, I can't believe inside myself, Guyute glances in my eyes, and manages to hypnotize...me as I sleep the sleep of death he sucks from me my only breath...even crazier on the album.

[TheEccentricHippie]

I agree, it's great. But they didn't write this for the album, they were performing it in 1995.

[dadlergo]

trey. PBS. no commercials on PBS. silly trey

[sd42790]

i love when they throw on little compositional changes to their heavily composed pieces, like the extension of the whistling section towards the beginning. Thanks for the upload!

[everythingever]

I believe this song, more than any other, shows Trey's true compositional genius. Listening to the orchestral version on his solo album "Seis de Mayo" also helped me confirm that :)

[rancidpunkskunx]

this song amazes be too, one of their greatest compostions. This video is by far the best version too

[Sean123771]

this song amazes me man

[beanpies]

Ditto fo sho

[Wedge7]

thanks for uploading this
