Phish 1998-10-31 Sneakin Salley Through the Alley

[sirTev13]

2:15-2:30 the funk is too thick and the camera gets out of focus

[MrNatesnumberone]

Page so sick

[TheArsenalgooner]

Hmmmm all these jam bands covering this? music is good-damn good but the vocals and the "jam" remind me of a bunch guys at county fair from the local church. No sex. no fire. some soul? perhaps.

[Mdsnows]

Page looks like a mad scientist on the clav.......Doctoring up the funk

[npaolucci2001]

thank god for the good ole days. WE RULE. you know who you are!!

[reddgrove]

Mike is on top of it... wow

[rippednmean]

@reddgrove he always is

[1blastman]

Check out Lee Dorsey's original version. This Phish cover is really good, but Alan Toussaint's music is best when sung by a fellow New Orleanian. RIP Lee.

Toussaint is very much alive and will be at Jazzfest again this year. Catch this musical genius when you can.

[passthedoby]

This is truly, makin music, right here.

[slowdeepnharder]

I was graced by the flow that be to be at this show!! Um has any one found my sanity or my shoes yet?!!

[pcuda73]

wow yochanan you're nothing but hot garbage who knows nothing about music you probably listen to staind and kings of leon you tool loser

[yochanan12]

The day Trey Anastasio dies will be a good day for me. It shouldn´t be allowed that somebody like him makes music.

[matthewshelvey]

@yochanan12 uhhh why cause trey's a jedi?

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN I HAVE FOUND THE SITH LORD

[stewart591]

the best sneakin for sure, page fucking kills it

[Cooleemee43]

@rockstar2192 - Outstanding, I didn't know that, I just looked up Lee Dorsey's version on the tube and what a pleasure it is to hear it. After listening to Dorsey's original I believe Phish is performing Robert Palmers version of the song. Its such a great song it would be hard to go wrong with any version. I have played Palmers version live and it is just so much fun to play, a true croud pleaser even when they haven't heard it before. Thanks for the info, Cheers!

[Cooleemee43]

I wonder if the croud knows this tune or are they just happy to hear a cool funky tune? Either way they got a winner, originally Robert Palmer, backed by Lowel George and the Meters, pretty sure.

[AtmaRising]

never realized that trey was using the twin reverbs in 98. thought it was later. glad he's back to his traditional rig with the custom languedoc cabinets, although he's only mic'ing one of the cabinets. i think the head he's playing through is the old boogie head from back in the day. not sure. any corrections, please correct me. Phish is back for another 25 folks! it's the best thing that's happened to us phans!!!!

[TheGunk17]

My 1st Phish show, Terrible seats but great set.

[ajbellis]

8-8-98 > 10-31-98

[folsomg1]

As a proud owner of Robert Palmer's Sneakin Sally album ....I say, well done...now add the rest of the tunes....one of the best ever.

[chukhustle]

i agree 8-8-98 is the best one i've ever heard that show was sick the whole show is funked out

[stewart591]

by far the best sneakin sally. pages badass clav solo is dope

[icecoldhubbas]

Trey kills me with the chicken head move.

[skinny326614]

please check out the version of this song from 8-8-98 in Columbia, MD. best version ever played by this funk machine known as The Phish

[cryingmelodies25]

video?

[chukhustle]

i was at this show it was great. the punch u in eye is the best i've ever heard. utah was better darkside 2 dyas later . i've seen every show they 've played at the thomas&mack center. great video thanks.

[JizzFaceLover]

A co-worker of mine is friends with page, we're going to see them at Hampton and hopefully they'll let me go with him to backstage, that would be siiiiiick. Cause he's going backstage, that's for sure, but hopefully he'll be able to say, "he's with me" and I get back there to and meet my heroes

[fluffhead717]

did you get backstage? from what i saw, the band didn't hang out too long after the shows... they left almost immediately -- or within 30 minutes after the shows were over.

[BrickLaneBetty]

Incredible. The most mellow looking boho guys and they can get in the Louisiana grove. I LOVE IT!

[smokefreshtrees]

Musician423 = a square

[sneakonproductionz]

no... I like the square.... or honestly a standard band set up would be best so everyone could cue on fishman for time changes in jams if he wants to start a new time signature

[MULTMATRG]

2:10-2:40 is some of the funkiest grooves ever. The crowd gradually picks up on it and starts going nuts. Nothing remotely compares to the energy of a Phish crowd

PS. Tdunski = Rutherford the Brave

[MusicIan423]

actually the crowd went wild when they changed the lights... that's usually what leads people more, the lights, rather than the sound.

[jam4jezus]

are you blind, def and dumb? the answer is yes. although the camera is shaking you can clearly tell the lights do not change at all. CK5s lights never hurt but by no means are necessary to enjoying a funk fest like this. Go stare a strobe light and stroke yourself idiot, thats obviously what your into.

[MusicIan423]

wow. is this what a phish crowd is like? A fellow fan makes a mistake and instead of calmly correcting him you flat out insult him? Fuck you guys. I'm sticking with the Dead.

[icecoldhubbas]

Keep it real brother

[matzxeo4532]

good riddance

[icecoldhubbas]

me luvs The Dead as well.

[cryingmelodies25]

you just don't get it my friend.

[icecoldhubbas]

jam4jezus---knows what he's talking about. CK stands for Chris Kuroda. Don't give this guy a hard time. He knows whereof he speaks.

[icecoldhubbas]

Deadhead for Ever!!!!!!

[laylad420]

thanks to the kind soul that posted this vid, it was my second show complete sickness too fucking funky for words

[puffnstuff0240]

i think mike is all up in the shit... page too kudos to the whole bee boppin shindig though

[GTPanic33]

great cover for phish.

[pantex1928]

Allan Toussaint would be proud

[friscobay01]

Im very glad to see this. I've probably listened to "live phish 16" about 276 times.

[mkultra9]

Thank you Robert Palmer, and everyone who influenced Phish.

[thebrothersfood]

:)Happy

[nugstoker]

I remember being ultra funky during this song, definitely a highlight in the night, drove all the way from New Orleans (passing up a hometown WSP show) to see the one and only fab four phreakin funky Phish! Thanks so much tdunski, epic footage!

[cobaltskystudio]

This song rocks a**- Phish does it well!

[getyoualittleslice]

tdunski - I appreciate you putting these vids up, brah. Takes me back to the best time in my life. Hopefully we will be able to see the boys again soon!

[pauly7917]

Sally

[snowman11686]

tryin to talk, double talk, get my self in trouble talk, hahah been there done that phish is tha shit

[iketurner7]

hey tdunski fire your editor! its not quite sincronized. I was at this show on the rail and this was the throw down.

[stoopitstoopit]

good job on getting addicted to heroin trey...rehab is a bitch..

[reburgnairb]

1800 views in only 6 months. In the first six months in which that Avril Lavigne video was posted, it was viewed over 30 million times.

[scootilybootily]

it's probably better that people don't know about this shit

[GDarkstar74]

@scootilybootily no way! haha, but really the more people who hear it, the more will like it. I think people are easily put off, subsequent to hearing their studio stuff, but you'd be hard-pressed to find a better live show out there. I think any knowledgeable music fan should appreciate that. Phish is already huge.

[wwwdeadissuecom]

I'm always blown away by the camera work on some of these bootlegs...I can't remember being at a Phish show in the state of mind where something like that would be possible...especially in the 2nd set.

I'm so glad there are phans out there w/ the discipline to pull this off!!!

[moonpainter]

hahahahahahahahahhahahahahahah­ahaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

[saholben]

thanks....bows down

[dbuzz]

ship it to tdunski

[HarpuaND84]

tdunski is definately the man. where can I get an actual DVD?

[mikemalnor]

tdunski is the man. How did you get all this video?

[dhaselton]

tdunski, i want to buy you a beer. Good work!

[phunkybiotch]

I want to buy him a case of beer.

[phunkyglass]
