Phish - 04.02.98 - Tube

[eceveritt42]

One of the sickest jazz tunes of all times, and you do look good.

[jonphishman]

damn i look good

[pcburgh01]

I was jumping the wall right at :33.......by :40 I was groovin like motha fucker.  Miss the jammy Tubes. This and Superball day 2 favorite all time TUbes.

[tennesseevol]

i wish they played tube like this still. god, everthing is so forced now. oh well.

[alexkickscan]

6:14 beautiful save of a potential huge fuck-up

[treethuggerben]

@alexkickscan what? thats how the change is supposed to go

[alexkickscan]

@treethuggerben Not quite. I think the band misinterpreted Trey as signalling a start-stop not the switch to that part of the song. Thats why everyone stopped and then picked up when they realized Trey was going into the outro-jam

[JWBear77]

where.it's.at.

the surprise Island tour and this thick bust opener.

nothing compares.

[herbalmedication]

What a way to start the weekend

Brings back memories of jumpin up n down front row with a 90's bullcut

Hampton was boxed within 30 seconds

The fun.....

I knocked on it some more

[cfeeney00]

Fishman is so ridic....

[taylor410ce]

i love this song but i can't out what it is about. does anyone know?!

[RandalPMcMurphey]

@taylor410ce Seriously... no.

[420callmegod]

@taylor410ce  Doses.

[taylor410ce]

@420callmegod cool. 

[ezekieloak]

@taylor410ce I think it's about dedication to being intelligent and knowledgeable but still lighthearted, maybe even silly and having fun. In a lavatory. In Las Angeles, you know... where it all began.

But is it not stupendous?

I mean, who can argue with the thesis that is this song?

It is exactly like an affirmation of either God or Robert Palmer.

You can't disprove it, either way.

Stupendous!

Y Porque No?

[Imspacedbro]

@taylor410ce a travelling caravan trying t o keeep it together on the 405/101/5 interchange

they were the best band of the 90's and are still the best band today. this was my first concert and even though i've seen some sick shows since, nothing compares to the island tour, my fav 4 days in life

[BamaPhish]

It's so stupendous... living in this tube, ya dig?

[phattskis]

Simply a wonderful start to a great long weekend :)  Glad I flew in from Amsterdam Panic to catch the Island Tour! :) thanks for sharing--have had the cds for ages but haven't seen the video since that night :)

and, yeah, the first jam was sick and kept getting sicker!!

[fiofunk]

i pay SO MUCH HOMAGE to silverchair............you gonna be at the gorge? fair trade & love for what you've put out for us masses on u-tube. the closest thing to being there online. well done & beyond~ Thank you

[Hendrixphishinfloyd]

Oh and the stash from this show is absolutely off the hook, unfinished and abotu as dark and trippy as any ever played. Very good show!

[aspazmodic]

unfinished and dark: 11/23/97

[Hendrixphishinfloyd]

This is probably my fav live version of Tube. It's just so funky in the middle and jams out a bit better than most..Nice opener..

[pcburgh01]

I didnt realize at the time how good this opener was

[JavaHeadStone]

page is a wizard on the clavinet

play more clav, man!

[luka307]

18000'th

[harmoniousthreads]

seriously, this and pyite... best funk they got.

[skinny326614]

and yem of course

[toddbolden]

moma dance and ghost....the list goes on and on!!!!

[danogzilla]

2001

oh damn!

[ezekieloak]

This is such a fake-out. From the start it sounds like PYITE.

And then, well, you know... The asteroid crashes and

BOOM!

[babner]

trey does that a lot while getting the groove set for either song.

[thomasmoredamian]

Dull...unimaginative....retro.­...same ol' thing that thousands of other bands are doing/have done/will do. No wonder people buy the tired hip-hop crap, if this kind of stuff is the only alternative....

[johnnyBird512]

go blow someone, know it all.

[newton2013]

5:43 Someone save trey from burning in that spotlight.

[Only8ToesMatter]

My first show... My first live Phish moment.... Hooked for life.

[jbinthesky]

pphhiisshhh

[smizhead]

wintickert p withlethorn hooooooo hooo haaaaaaaaaaaaaal

[uwarules]

i love live phish videos where you can see the whole audience bobbing randomly in perfect time, awesome post

[StarCraftWhore]

WOW! i have been searching for this song for ages and could never figure out the title until I stumbled on this just randomly searching. This is an awesome phish song! :D

[puffnstuff0240]

you like starcraft? solid game

[StarCraftWhore]

Yup, and phish is what i usually listen to as i play it. ; )

[JokerVA]

Does... anyone know where i can get this song

ive been searching for TUBE for ever but i keep getting first tube...

[TheFinalCut2207]

Its not on any studio albums... although there is a torrent to the bearsvilles sessions that has a take that almost made it onto BB or SOTG... I can't remember which.

Its on some of the livephish release to... depending on the show.

My personal fave is 12/7/97... whith the post tube jam> slave.

This particular version is from the Island tour... all fours shows are available from livephish.

[puffnstuff0240]

12/7/97 is some serious funk.. the bassline after the second stop/start is disgusting, the post tube jam is slanky as well, im glad you brought that up, 97 and 98 (98 is my personal favorite) bring the serious funk, no joke

[tristramshandy3]

12/7/97 was a great show. but checkout the tube and antelope and bathtub from st louis 7-29-98. SICK!!!!!!!!!!! One of the best shows I ever saw :)

[thomasmoredamian]

FUNK??????? You don't know what funky is, if you use stuff like this as your standard of funkin', puffnstuff!

[scrimnot]

Hampton Comes Alive, a six cd set released in '98. It's on there

[sneakonproductionz]

that one is crazy

While not as musicly crazy the miami one that they finished the next night freaked everyone out

[lexicaljewel]

HOSHIT! That MOMENT! Oh my god! These videos are killlllllling me, dude!

[grailmastah]

hmmmm...i never heard about that, i can't say i would know for sure, I will have to research that, but it seems plausible...i never knew what they meant by it, it just sounded like Endo,,,,,,thanks for the tip, and any way to prove that would clear my conscience.......yeah tube, though, sweet...i keep trying to get my time machine repaired so i can go back to the late nineties and cruise up and down the rockies, kickin jams...seeing me some phish gigs.....

[barnetj1]

more phish plz!

[KristopherApa]

So stupendous, living in this tube

[itsallHOOD518]

one of my phavorite phish songs. love me some tube

[grailmastah]

check out those endo clouds!!!! sweet groove

[RebubulaXsea]

remember snoop doggs "rollin down the street,smokin INdo(indoor),sippin on gin and juice"??? I think its Indo not endo?

[phantomgirl1126]

[RebubulaXsea]

woops, looks like myself and the "grailmastah" wer incorrect.

[girlphriend]

If i wasn't married, silverchair...
