Phish 1998-12-28 The Mighty Quinn (Quinn the Eskimo)

[ErnienSBuf]

Song sounded ok. I'm a deadhead & seems to me even though dead do alota covers too most of phish fans that ive talked to & know seem to have a favorite song they play but its a COVER. Piss on Phish nothin like good ole grateful dead.Phish originals suck imo. Though havent been able to get thru many of them b4 ejecting or changing them they just dont hold my attention!!! This was 1st one i can remember listened to all of it & was bcuz was typing

[kyediggity79]

@ErnienSBuf Well thank god you are on here posting shit telling us fans how much you hate phish. Just means less douche bags like you wont take up my dancing room. When did it become cool to go to videos watch them and post shit about them. I LOVE the dead and Phish and my friend the guitar here blows Jerry outta the water. So go some place that you like and quit wating everyones time!

[kyediggity79]

@ErnienSBuf Piss on phish good one bro thats about as original as wsp sux. Did you think of that all on your own or did you have help from your mommy??

[TheSanityInspector]

@ErnienSBuf There's enough success to go around, and enough bands to please every fan.

[1234captron]

Enjoy Phish, But just reminds me of Allman Bros and Dead

[mbglosser]

i absolutely LOVE the Dead.. and i hate when people compare Phish to the Dead.. but honestly... Phish's Quinn > Dead's Quinn...

[SILVERWITCH1070]

You can like or hate the vocals, but remember the original Dylan? Loved his songs, hated his voice.

[YurikiHyuga]

I think Trey has a great singing voice. Once of the reasons why I like Phish so much... he sounds unique. It's mostly the instrumentals though!

[Hunsanity]

who even cares about singing.. what are you a bunch of women? go listen to some celine dion or Whitney houston you schoolgirls.. this band isnt about singing.. its about light sabers and instruments.. do better youtube commenters

[benjaminMisiuk]

@Hunsanity Hah right on bro! You fill my heart with laughter and joy.

[bellpurdue12]

wait...is that a caterpillar?

[slowhand633]

you gay if you don't like this

[ninfam74]

Page isn't a good singer? something must be wrong with my ears then

[eatmyrainbowfarts]

lol, we are singing this and dancing to this in a show.

[danimg23]

trey doesn't even sing this song kids. its mike. and he is really a mediocre vocalist. trey is actually pretty decent

[nyjbp1]

trey is a self proclaimed bad vocalist, but hey shitheads, he wasnt voted in the top three guitarists of all time because of his voice. eat shit haterzz

[cbarrett34]

true, phish can't sing, they can play, but their vocals are very average

[swill5191]

I'm sorry, but nobody can sing Dylan like Garcia... just compare this to July 88... Jerry and Brent had VOICES, something nobody in this fucking band has.

[kyletheoriginal]

You know something crazy was gonna happen after Trey broke out that loop at the end.

[heady420420]

i love the phish. if you dont like the phish you clearly dont understand it

[Godhand4505]

these guys are not that good. just my opinion but i cant stand them!!!!!!! 

[qu1et]

music starts @ 1:00

[DelaCaseas00]

@qu1et thank you

[DAVINOENTERPRISES]

My 1st show!

[itsmillertime321]

i swear tdunski had the same seats for every god damn show in 98.

[r0llskyay0]

definitely kinda about the drugs

[nyjbp1]

@r0llskyay0 your an idiot ive been totally clean n sober for six months n never have i ever had a better time at phish shows. look at ur name rolls k yayo maybe its bout the drugs for u which is cool man trust me i wish i was able to endulge like a normal person, but its an experience if u actually appreciate the music

[Rome012]

hahahaha the worm, and fishman has a viking helmet on hahah I LOVE PHISH

[leroimoore41]

@Rome012 fishmans dress and viking helmet make him a one of a kind guy...incase no one already knew

[danimg23]

@leroimoore41 henrietta!!

[murphmanin]

love it! they do it some heavy justice

[shansman1]

dank quinn! its the best encore song in my opinion! perfect nite cap!

[Zilla2251]

SOMEDAY THEY'LL GET TO PLAYING IT --- if Queen took this long in a concert, the crowd would have rioted.

[ridesdeepsnow]

@Zilla2251 maybe because the people going to Queen concerts were jackasses looking to riot. Oh my God it took a whole 1:01 to get going. It says a lot about TYPES of people when you speak about genres of music and the people who are involved. Just for fun go watch the Crazy types leaving a Insane Clown Posse type concert, talk about some people who have no class and will never make anything of themselves.

[wharfrat89]

Bob Dylan wrote this song...Phish covered it...Two great artists....So why is everyone bitching?

[Kindtrades]

yeah if you guys don't like phish - you simply don't get it - which if fine, I mean - different strokes for different folks.

but they are 110 steps above the rest. They pull off everything from deep space jams to something as happy as the mighty quinn. what an epic moment this must have been.

and I've been to 120 shows since 6-30-2000... so I get it. cheers, and enjoy yourself.

[spreadneck7]

@Kindtrades When you think you get it you don't.........

[matthuzilla3]

and eveybody's gonna wanna dose 4:31 mark :)

[murphmanin]

@matthuzilla3 yes pleeeze

[Worden26]

yeah really whats up with the inchworm humping the stage..

[BlinkBeer]

I'm sick of hearing people dog Phish, Every band evolves, even led zeppelin, the greatest true rock band of all time. If you watch their London O2 arena concert in 07, they dont sound anything like the zep of 75' but that doesnt mean they can't put on a show better than 99.9% of the people in the world. And if you dont get why people like Phish, then they arent for you. And thats cool. Different stokes for different folks!

[spreadneck7]

Your a fool, every song off Led Zep 1 was someone elses song. Plus more. Phishes 2001 is a rip off of this one 80's band. But yah Zep is not the greatest by far.

[tristramshandy3]

@spreadneck7 phish's 2001 is a cover of eumir deodato's version, which is from 1974- it won a grammy :)

[spreadneck7]

You are correct. I picked up on it when I was watching "Being There" and figured it was some band from 1980.

[beowulven]

Why do I not hear the genius that folks hear in this band? I clearly don't get it. Maybe if I tried weed...? Ugh, just... just terrible.

[guitangelod]

listen to ANYTHING from 1993 to 1996 and tell me any of it is anything but a million times tighter, more innovative and so fucking spot on more than any other band of this nature. They became millionares by this time and didn't rehearse as much and didn't have any more to prove. They have everyone they need that know they've pulled off stuff as a band that NO ONE could pull off as a WHOLE BAND.

[pinkfloyd42819]

no, what you need is patience. its not about the drugs, AT ALL

[hethradiah78]

I don't get why people hafta be negative assholes 99% of the time on the internet, when their say means absolutely jack-squat. Millions of phishheads can't be wrong. You on the other hand....

Live and let live.

[bigcuff09]

More impressed with there good times bad times cover. Thats rockin, not this. Is that a glow worm?

[quinnmcnelley]

quinn is me

[pauly7917]

Quinn->Bowie

[tbengal55]

WHY IS EVERYONE SO HATEFUL? Personally, i think Phish rocked this tune. Goes right into "ghost" also. That's the great thing about a cover haters. Phish took this song and put their stamp on it. People will no longer be like " is that Manfred Mann?" no. This is obviously phish. which is GREAT!

[mvpujols777]

I think they did very well here but let's face it, Grateful Dead did it this way first.

NOTHING BEATS THE DEAD

[philrunsmarathons]

i dont love trey but i do believe he cares about people having a good time more than jimmy buffet's cheeseburger margarita paradise bull on the vegas strip

[ronoman88]

People pay large amounts of money and time to commune to watch this drivel. They enjoy this sh-t as much as any kid seeing the Backstreet boys or Toby Heath. Absolutely "cosmic".

[decmasta]

i think trey put it fucking right when he said you like us or you hate us... so go the fuck away

[shanewilburn]

@decmasta This was my first of many shows, and although I am 32 and have 4 children now, I would still love going to a PHISH concert over any other concert I have ever been to!

[sometimehuh]

whats with the slug ?

[skankinlemon]

hahah starting at 3:10

[ronoman88]

Who cares who wrote anything. Any band this bad should be an inspiration to millions of young bands. What a huge nightmare. They might be worse than Jimmy Buffet if its possible.

[NCC1712]

I care who wrote songs like that. ;-) But though cynical, your post doesn't lack a certain amount of truth. To be honest - come on people, this version IS crap, isn't it? Possibly even as bad as the Dylan original, and that means quite something.

[Sk8nguitar44]

He did write it dumb ass

[RebubulaXsea]

sorry,Original Bob Dylan, made popular by Manfred Mann. And then totally rocked out by Phish.

[mjwaters2]

i didnt tell anybody but phish is getting back together...i got a friend on the inside ;)

[buckminster]

sweet cover, but what the hell is that green thing crawling across the stage.

[tmbgnicu]

Ah, the old stage set up. Good 'ol days. Great way to end the first show of the holiday run!

[wholewheatbagel]

phish blows my mind everytime

[errandwolfe2001]

And as for applying lyrics, you try remembering all the words to around 300 songs and let me know how you make out. Phish is all about the energy pal.

[sturgis16]

bob dylan wrote this song jackass

[RebubulaXsea]

BOB DYLAN DID NOT WRITE QUINN. Just like Phish never covered Gin+juice. (the gourds) Fucks sake people.

[sturgis16]

actually you're incorrect. dylan wrote this song in 1967, one year before manfred mann released it. i encourage you to look further into it.

and i don't remember saying anything about phish covering gin and juice?

[allforyouz]

Yeah. Bob Dylan wrote this song. Dick

[Lockdown427]

They arent't good at applying lyrics to songs.. shoulda hired robert hunter..

[Lockdown427]

They arent't good at applying lyrics to songs.. shoulda hired robert hunter..

[unclebilbo2000]

your a fool please don't watch any more phish videos or post on them

[RebubulaXsea]

yeah Tom Marshall is shit with lyrics. Did u smoke ur lunch or something?

[blackrhain009]

yes prias me im the mighty Quinn

[jdtylers]

The Dead they aren't.

[mpurves98]

they ain't Manfred Mann either, but they're pretty good.

[RebubulaXsea]

come on now! u sayin MM is better than Phish? if so, great its ur opinion, but thats just crazy. Are u familiar w/ other MM songs?

[unclebilbo2000]

yea your correct they're phish!! they are two completely different bands/styles. educate yourself please.

[rcnrcn2]

Your name says it all spankum.

[TheREALspankum]

wow, thanks for not editing out the first minute of nothingness, fukin hippie slacker

[QuinnCassidy]

listen to immortal technique..

[matthuzilla2]

everybody's gonna want to dose!!!!

3rd row center ilse, and ohh shit head's up for the david bowie!! very special night!

[quinney3441]

i am michael quinn the eskimo but you can call me mighty

[skatebord222]

Quinns my first name realy:)

[maheo13]

one of my favorite tours, my b-day is new years day. and this douche bag doesn't know what he's talking about. penis breath

[tiegs]

can't these PUDS come up w something original - they try to tour like the GD, then they even cover what the GD covered. I hate these slobs even more now - irrelevant bozos. what's w the viking hat on the drummer - so dumb.

[ginophish]

Pfft... I love the phish haters. They have absolutely no clue. stay in the frat house where you belong.

[unclebilbo2000]

ya for real tiegs dont go too far from your frat house with all the other tools. if you knew anything about the dead theres no way u'd slam phish, oh wait, if you knew anything about phish u wouldnt slam them. granted it wasnt the meanest eskimo from trey ever, but it still was a good tune. check out the hamptons live and trey just blows bob's original guitar away, fuckin' great shit man

[Lockdown427]

I like dead I respect phish but they still arent good lyricist..

[allforyouz]

well blowing bob guitar away isn't the hardest thing to do.

[DAVINOENTERPRISES]
