re: OT- Match this live performance..

That's pretty good.

Everyone goes through music things in youth that may not be the best of choices. Regardless, I had a great time at those shows as well as the three shows I got to see of the Dead before Jerry died.

And, just to throw more kindling on JD's fire, by 98 Phish shows were over run with frat boy pseudo hippies and HS kids looking for "dank", mushrooms, or x. Couldn't even enjoy a show with out some gutter rat bumping into me and asking for drugs.

But, the music is still good. My mother was a friend of Captain Beefheart and knew Zappa - she found Phish to be reminiscent of those artists. As I heard a lot of Beefheart and Zappa growing up, I did as well.


To each his own.
