i was a big deadhead back in the day and drove from nyc to virginia to see phish for the very first time at this show. when this song began everyone freaked out, girls were crying out in joy, and smiles were everywhere! i was blownaway!
I remember making my girlfriend at the time come with me to this show. She was a huge deadhead but she despised Phish. Her face was priceless. Just one of those things. Great moment.
Well. if U don't wanna stoop to Lisa's level why call her an ignorant moron???? I think this is a girl who's on my FB. Not sure but somebody sent this link out. Anyway she always has strong opinions. They don't bother me at all as everyone's entitled to them. Besides calling Phish Phans Phools I agree with some of what she said. Oh well. Tributes to Jerry are cool but taking on Terrapin is not gonna be in whoever tries to do its best interest if you compare it to the Dead.. It's awful
IMO this is a perfect example why The Grateful Deads music is better left un-resung. Why listen to this when you can get the real deal easily!?!?! Phish is nothing more then and amatueristic band that have a bunch of fools following them around thinking their some sorta Dead Head. A true Jerry fan wouldn't listen to this for more then a minute. Not to mention your supporting a sheep in Mike Gordon that like to take pictures of young children. He almost got himself killed for it. Get a life!
I wont stoop to your level and get in a "Youtube fight" but use this website and enter, 'Prague Ghost' or 'Good Times Bad Times Phish' or '6/13/94 Reba' or '12/6/97 phish' or '10/31/94 Reba' or... well you get the idea you ignorant moron. I realize Phish, Trey mostly, has declined significantly but to describe them as amateurs is just incorrect. Have a good day, hope you figure it out.
@MsLisaharding sobertrey i will stoop her level because she has no idea what shes talking about obviously, Lisa you should realize that they are similar band knowing that they are both jam bands.. there not copying the gateful dead they a merely doing a cover like they would to ANY other band that has good songs, I also love the grateful dead i grew up listening to it but to say 'some sorta dead head is idiotic because they have just as large of a following and half of it is old deadheads.
@aliendogtwistaogkush Man I'm surprised u Phish Phans are responding w/ all this name calling and negativity. Not a Grate showing at all~~Reaching for things like " they have just as large of a following" is obviously insane. Who cares who has more fans but facts are facts. Nobody will EVER MATCH THE DEADS MASSIVE FANBASE! To say 1/2 of Phish Phans R D' Heads may be true but.., Oh whatever, just be real. If ur gonna post obvious falsehoods maybe just listen 2 the music! And thank god we have it
@MsLisaharding They aren't amatuers. Phish just play a completely different style than the Grateful Dead. Phish is derived from Jazz and Rock, where as the Grateful Dead is Folk and Bluegrass. (My opinion) I personally am a Jazz/Rock kind of girl and adore Phish more than an other band. I feel bad you never gave them a chance, because they are absolutely beautiful!!!! One day you may open your heart to Phish and that will be a beautiful day! Listen to their original songs! Bug :D
@WharfRat44 Man these posts....They are addicting! haha..To each his own as far as what u like...A Lady GaGa fan will say the same about her as Dead Heads and Phish Phans say about their love of their band. "THEY"RE THE "BEST"Just because I love the Dead and saw nearly 400 shows don't mean The Grateful Dead are the best...Just my fav...This shit about who's the best should just stop....I gave Phish many chances "44" including seeing them & this Terrapin crash but that's my opinion..Peace folks
If a person likes one band and dislikes the other when it comes to the dead and phish its pure blasphemy. If you like the dead, jerry would cream his pants over phish, and clearly we all cream our pants over the dead. So it's one in the same..
I'm in a Phish mood and came across this randomly. I'm only a minute into the song and tears are in my eyes. Of course there is no other like Jerry.....but this is a beautiful tribute..Oh to have been there.
i was here, and didnt know what was going on right about a few minutes in to this song, very interesting reactions by everyone in the crowd began to surface..some of doubt , some of joy, could Phish pull this off????thanks Phish, and thanks Jerry!!!<3
@VaderHold It is a graphic done for a Colorado band named DeadPhish Orchesta, if ou google them you can find the art work, and there might be some more information that way. Oh and DeadPhish kicks ass!
At 3:08 when Trey goes into the solo, I get this wave of overwhelming happiness where I physically must start dancing of I feel my head will explode. Also, the cheer at 4:00 just fits so well, I feel it's part of what makes the song so sentimental. I'm feeling the vibes from the crowd 13 years later, through the computer . . .
I was at this Va beach show and tour, this was an amazing show, so GRATEFUL for Phish for playing this for me, who never got to get down to Jerry, tears + chills still. The loudest I have ever heard a Phish crowd roared! I saw the Steal Your Face embedded over the waves of headz in the crowd, a full moon over the stage. We were all in awe after this. Thank you for a real good time!
Both of the bands just seem like something that was there long before the actual bands. It is some sort of true beauty that is some how channeled through them.
What I love about this was this was one of the first times they even acknowledged the Dead in anything. They didn't like the comparisons all that much.
Great cover, although trey never could quite capture the emotion that jerry expressed while singing this song. Its okay though, no one but jerry could =). Awesome job though trey.
was ten rows back...seems like forever ago....heard pre-show whispers about what might happen.......this blew us away......one of those moments you look at the sky and just enjoy every second...and I am not a fruit-loop fan.....just freakin enjoyed it....thanks for this one!
this is beautiful for sure-too bad I couldnt make this show-feelings of joy and sadness at the same time for all Jerry meant and still means-while a group who played in his honor the encore gives us so much today!!Your'e legions only grow stronger Jerry!!(~);-}Just got back from Phish late Summer tour thru Chicago-you boys are rockin for sure!
The Dead played a lot of dismal shows? Too much credit? Maybe in your lifetime. Respect. Don't be stupid. You're showing your lack of even a clue. This is an amazing and respectful tribute to the band that made it possible. Puhleez...
Phish shows will never be the same as Dead shows, but that doesn't mean they aren't good. I loved the few Dead shows I saw and every Phish show I have seen... If musicians didn't learn from each other there would be no real music. Anyways check out the McLovins they are an amazing young band.
I believe Dark Star Orchestra does a better job with this. Good that Phish is paying respects to the GodFathers of Psychedelic music that has morphed into "jam" bands. And it is good that the crowd is into it. Trey sounds uncomfortable singing the song, and the magic that is there when the Grateful Dead played it is just not even close to being there. Not Phish bashing, as I saw them with less than 200 people in 1993 and began listening to them in 1990.
I had the great privilege of being at this show back in '98. And it WAS a huge surprise for us. I can still hear a female friend of mine gasp when she realized what song it was. Such great memories.
I was at this show. it was in va beach it was near a full moon and there was a riot in the parking lot because scott gorman threw a beer bottle an a mounted police officer.
Im pretty sure they never played VB again. If they did it was only Once more. Sucks cause Its a Awesome town packed with hippies and sailor custees
I am true blue Dead Head and this fucking cooks! Gnarley cover....great Dead song with Trey's voice. Jerry was noodling in the sky watching this for sure!
Ive seen in the last 35 years over 400 shows by the Grateful Dead - Garcia Band - Bobby and the Midnites - Ratdog - Phil & Friends - Other Ones - The Dead - Furthur and all the cover bands. I like Phish but loved the Grateful Dead. This - well this is WONDERFUL - FUCKEN WONDERFUL - excellent job by the boys here. Well done - Thank You !!!
Was 5th row with one of my best friends.....goosebumps EVERY time I listen to this. The build up of the crowd noise as people started to recognize the first few rifts was incredible!!!
I was at this show. Man..what a treat. I saw the Dark Side of the moon set they payed in Utah, but it doesn't compare to this on lone song. I miss my old Phish. Ahh Picture of Nectar days..what sad times are these when drunk 16yr old rich kids come to shows and ruin a good time for everyone. Just chill and enjoy the music for what it is. art. and half of these assholes couldn't even appreciate what gravity this one song phish played for the true followers. sigh.
@Ninjasofshadow How the hell can a 16 year old be rich? You sure it's not you that has a bad attitude? I have been going to shows for just as long as the next person. The kids at the shows are no different than me when I was 16. They are kids having fun; the crowd is very much the same as it was in the 90's. You want to brag and say it was better and it's being ruined now, but fact is, it's not yours and you have to share because Phish is for everyone; not just the posers that know it all.
@pcburgh01 WELL spoken! People love trying to make it seem like THEY were there, man! And it was special, and you totally missed it! Those people make me sad. I don't want to live in a world where I think the glory days have come and gone and all the newest music sucks.
@migbee It's just as much fun as it always was. Yah, the band is not experimenting like they used to and I would love to hear Who teases, Zepplin teases, Deep Purple teases and all that jazz....but they really have a sound now that is refreshing and POLISHED! Man o Man they were so great the past 12 months. It's about the music and in typical Phish fashion.....they keep out doing themselves. cheers man. see you in the lawn.
IF you were there and remember that feeling and crying and hugging and singing, and crying, and dancing, and smiling, and high five-in, and crying, when they went into this song... You don't need to explain to the haters.
@crimblegnome I remember thinking really, they're going to tease terrapin, then the chill ran down my spine and back up again when I realized...phish is preforming terrapin station....unreal!
@crimblegnome im about to cry right now! that had to have been beyond describable feelings. i feel it though... all of us who are tuned in know whats up. its just sad, i want the haters to feel the love that we all get to experience. then they wont be haters anymore! and the world will be that much better
Obviously if you hate Phish and they cover your favorite bands song you're going to bitch. I love Phish and it still pisses me off that they covered Roses are Free like ten times last summer (exaggeration). However they cover the dead so rarely you can't help but be stoked to hear this (unless you hate Phish).
@48amg Didn't they get their start doing a lot of dead covers? I really don't know, but heard from some friends of the family that i should give them a listen, that they were heavily dead inspired, and even played a ton of dead covers very, very early on... Hearsay for sure, but my source is as reliable as hearsay gets lol. Anyways, i personally don't care for phish too much, but i do love the tribute. Though Phusionblues your wrong about that, the dead never played it this poorly, but still...
@48amg And somehow I missed all of those Roses, and Ween is like one of my favorite bands ever... god damnit I was caught in like 2 hours of traffic before Bethel.. didn't show up til Wolfman's brother... Still a great show tho, and I got a miracle the next night!
okay listen..this song is beautiful period. now we all know that the dead is the fucking greatest band of all time. phish the the second and them playing this is just beautiful. wuite arguig everyone and just smoke a bowl and enjoy how beautiful the dead and phish are...peace and pot
@thepgranby I'm pretty sure you're missing the point. It was a great nod to a band they had so much respect for. You do realize that there were a lot of deadheads on phish lot in 98 right? A lot of people moved on when Jerry died, but a lot of people jumped on phish tour, worked the lot and bitched about the music. I'm guessing you were slanging grilled cheese in the lot and missed the encore ?
the dead flubbed as well. thats what its about improvising. its good to hear either band flub once in awhile. so you know there human. o and point at the flubs to me jackass
this was great. Didn't change the song. Didn't try to upstage the song
Just a well played rendition to a song I love. Trespect

phish and the grateful dead = two great bands that can't be replicated
both groups embrace improvisation- jazz improv, blues jams, experimental sounds etc

you gotta respect both bands for their fearlessness and willingness to take risks
don't understand why anyone would be on here wasting time hating on these musicians

I was at this show. it was in va beach it was near a full moon and there was a riot in the parking lot because scott gorman threw a beer bottle an a mounted police officer.
Im pretty sure they never played VB again. If they did it was only Once more. Sucks cause Its a Awesome town packed with hippies and sailor custees

I was at this show. Man..what a treat. I saw the Dark Side of the moon set they payed in Utah, but it doesn't compare to this on lone song. I miss my old Phish. Ahh Picture of Nectar days..what sad times are these when drunk 16yr old rich kids come to shows and ruin a good time for everyone. Just chill and enjoy the music for what it is. art. and half of these assholes couldn't even appreciate what gravity this one song phish played for the true followers. sigh.
Ninjasofshadow 8 months ago
@Ninjasofshadow How the hell can a 16 year old be rich? You sure it's not you that has a bad attitude? I have been going to shows for just as long as the next person. The kids at the shows are no different than me when I was 16. They are kids having fun; the crowd is very much the same as it was in the 90's. You want to brag and say it was better and it's being ruined now, but fact is, it's not yours and you have to share because Phish is for everyone; not just the posers that know it all.

@pcburgh01 WELL spoken! People love trying to make it seem like THEY were there, man! And it was special, and you totally missed it! Those people make me sad. I don't want to live in a world where I think the glory days have come and gone and all the newest music sucks.
migbee 6 months ago
@migbee It's just as much fun as it always was. Yah, the band is not experimenting like they used to and I would love to hear Who teases, Zepplin teases, Deep Purple teases and all that jazz....but they really have a sound now that is refreshing and POLISHED! Man o Man they were so great the past 12 months. It's about the music and in typical Phish fashion.....they keep out doing themselves. cheers man. see you in the lawn.

IF you were there and remember that feeling and crying and hugging and singing, and crying, and dancing, and smiling, and high five-in, and crying, when they went into this song... You don't need to explain to the haters.

Obviously if you hate Phish and they cover your favorite bands song you're going to bitch. I love Phish and it still pisses me off that they covered Roses are Free like ten times last summer (exaggeration). However they cover the dead so rarely you can't help but be stoked to hear this (unless you hate Phish).
48amg 9 months ago
@48amg Didn't they get their start doing a lot of dead covers? I really don't know, but heard from some friends of the family that i should give them a listen, that they were heavily dead inspired, and even played a ton of dead covers very, very early on... Hearsay for sure, but my source is as reliable as hearsay gets lol. Anyways, i personally don't care for phish too much, but i do love the tribute. Though Phusionblues your wrong about that, the dead never played it this poorly, but still...

@arlog11 The dead played lots of really dismal shows. I think you're giving them a wee bit too much credit.

@48amg And somehow I missed all of those Roses, and Ween is like one of my favorite bands ever... god damnit I was caught in like 2 hours of traffic before Bethel.. didn't show up til Wolfman's brother... Still a great show tho, and I got a miracle the next night!

@thepgranby Can you point me to a dead version of the song where there isn't a flub or Jerry actually remembers all the verses? Thanks

that's not the point
it's the dumb fish fans saying ow perfect this is
they sound bland, terrible vocals, etc
thepgranby 9 months ago
@thepgranby I'm pretty sure you're missing the point. It was a great nod to a band they had so much respect for. You do realize that there were a lot of deadheads on phish lot in 98 right? A lot of people moved on when Jerry died, but a lot of people jumped on phish tour, worked the lot and bitched about the music. I'm guessing you were slanging grilled cheese in the lot and missed the encore ?
