PHISH RELEASES 11/14/95

is this a proxy legal defense fund for trey's recent legal troubles?

Why don't they just release a DVD through Dry Goods-Only and save people all the trouble of going through all that crap to watch it on a real television screen instead of an f'n I-Pod.

mcmurphy,
convienence

Stash.

Should we send $$ or dope?

Wow, some of you have brilliant comic minds. NOT (Borat)

Remember having this tape for years, and of course now its lost in the ether. Yeah, the STASH is kookoo crazy, love it, nice work Phish archive. Keep em coming

toeknee420, that is fu$kin funny!

toeknee420 def send tha diesel and some freshies hes prolly feinin actually prolly not he chillen like scarface with a mound of dope instead of coke treyface

Hey kewl,

what are you trying to say?

Hey kewl,

what are you trying to say?

What he's trying to say is "who cares?"

What he's trying to say is "who cares?"

I agree they should release a dvd instead, i for one will not be getting this show on the acount of i do not have a creit card. Someone should make a torrent...

The Rocky Top is worth the download alone. Trust me.

They should get back together.

why are yall bitchin about a new live phish? live phish is the shit.

yep, this is great news!

sweet show

Let me start off by saying I've always LOVED the music of Phish, but their live releases as far as "sound quality" leave much to be desired. It's almost as if certain levels are tweaked a little and other things are turned down. Sometimes it's too much high-hat or not enough bass or no Page what so ever!
Ever since the "LIVE PHISH" releases,I have struggled with the overall production of the live shows. The sound quality is better on the free download websites than it is coming from Kevin Shitpero at the Phish vaults. It just doesn't sound like the Phish I saw over 60 times...It just doesn't sound...good. I'd rather listen to an audience generation than a dry, over produced "soundboard" copy.

That Stash is nasty. Real nasty.

just wanted to say chuck and al from moe made top 20 new guitar gods from rolling stone

i think kewl got some of trey's dope. mcmurphy you can burn the video mp4's on to a single layered dvd using nero,which will play in most dvd players that can be viewed on your full screen tv, then sell them at shows for a buck, before you know it you'll get your 19.95 back. bylimb your nuts, get rid of the tape hisss and audiance 'legs. sbds and matrixs are my hear candy. i probably won't download this one but if they release pittsburgh fall '95, i'm on it. live phish should do a survey of what we want, can you say big cypress!!!!

That's sweet, but when are they gonna release a Coventry DVD?

Wow, all these people knocking this really need something else to read. We don't really care if you don't like it, or thinks a defence fund for Trey, yall are just pissed that cheese is breaking up and being just like Phish, Phish with a fiddle. Get something better to do with your time than rip on the band the made this entire board possible (trust me the Cheese and panics fan base alone would have never got something like this going). Go support your favorite band, and stop knocking other people favorite. Dildos.

Coventry paled in comparison to IT and Cypress. Nostalgic and magical as it was, the conditions were herrendous. Nothing will top the late-night tower set from IT or the "we're all super jacked on drugs, adrenaline and the love of music so let's play for eight hours," from Cypress. No DVD will ever capture those moments for me, and no DVD will ever capture the moment during "Wading in the Velvet Sea," when Page broke down crying on stage at Coventry. The experience is in being there.

Ever heard of the GRATEFUL DEAD discophunksterz? Phish made all this possible...

I'm definetly not knocking on Phish, they rock, and I'm looking forward to hearing this.

WHITEHALL, NY – Former Phish frontman Ernest “Trey” Anastasio pleaded guilty to two counts of felony drug possession early Monday morning at Whitehall Village Court and will serve jail time. In exchange for his guilty plea, prosecutors agreed to drop the remaining felony drug charge and all 3 misdemeanor charges stemming from Anastasio’s DWI arrest in Whitehall on December 15, 2006. Although specific terms of his plea are not yet available, it is expected that Anastasio will serve 4-6 years in prison for illegal possession of heroin and prescription pain medications hydrocodone, oxycodone, and the anti-anxiety drug alprazolam.

Anastasio pleaded not guilty last month to misdemeanor charges of drug possession and driving under the influence of drugs, but new felony charges were recently added following new findings in the case. He was recently interviewed in New York City regarding his drug arrests and admitted to be a narcotics addict. He noted his days during the last six years of Phish opened a door to many of the darker drugs he was able to avoid during their early years. He also thought ending the band would help beat his demons on his own terms. Phish disbanded in 2004 following a two-day farewell concert in Vermont. Since then, Anastasio and the other members of Phish (keyboardist Page McConnell, bassist Michael Gordon, and percussionist Jon Fishman) have toured with various side projects.

Anastasio is expected to serve his sentence at the Federal Correctional Institution in Otisville, New York. Terms as to when his sentence will begin have not yet been disclosed. Phone calls to Anastasio’s management company Red Light Management in Charlottesville, Virginia confirming this report have not yet been returned.

havingagoodtime, I shoulda clarified, I understand the Dead made this scene possible, but Phish carried into the Next gen, 2.0 if you will, jambase and jambands.com etc would not exist without phish, pending Jerry dying when he did.

A DVD would be nice but with Apple's release of Apple TV, MPEG 4's are now wirelessly viewable on your TV. You guys gotta catch up with the technology. DVD gets scratched, gotta buy a new one..mpeg is a file, smart.

Willie - What is your source for that article? (4-6 years in prision for Trey)

Willie's article is a fake that has been floating around for weeks. Pay it no mind.

TREY WILL SERVE NO TIME.

" live phish should do a survey of what we want,"

seconded

Yeah the story about Trey going to prison for 4-6 years is FALSE...

Also why the hell wouldn't you want soundboard???
The quality is far superior

I agree with McMurphy. It would be nice to see some of the old stuff on DVD. Not this download bullshit.

Hey Kevinp17, I don't have "tape hiss" shows anymore, and the "by the fans, for the fans" audience shows that I do have sound fantastic. I do have plenty of SBD and Matrix shows, and of course, those shows sound great, especially any of the Europe 97 shows. Yet for some reason, "Live Phish" sounds overproduced and plastic...not true to the actual sound and musical wizardry of Phish! Even if Phish takes a survey of what shows they should release, they must do a complete overhaul of the way these shows are produced. I guess I'm spoiled by all the Betty boards and Latvala releases...

How come nothing is ever "good enough" for Phish fans? As a pretty loyal one myself (65+ shows from 96 on), I am more than abliged for the memories, roadtrips, amazing phriends along the way, and obvioulsly the soundtrack to my life thus far. If someones not bitching about quality, it's about why something was done like this or that. Fuck people, instead of bitching on here why not mail Trey a letter and tell him how big of a homo he is...fleeing the scene of the dopest band ever, only to get caught with H. Way to go you fuckin LOSER. Anyone want to get a petition going to have Fish, Page, Gordo play again?!!
Sidenote....cheese is melting, finally. Thank you, as that was definitely time wasted.

Great to see they're releasing more from the mid-90's! In my opinion, 96 - 97 were the hay day of phish. I'd like to see more releases from this era when the band really seemed to be in their prime. Love the music regardless of it's format. We've gotten pretty spoiled.

i wonder if trey was already using H at this point in his career

i was just fucking around treys the shit i could care less he he likes dope sucks for him but i was just kiddin . but i prolly couldn't get treys dope cuz he did it all

I love Trey, but like the Jersey kid he is, he'll know I'm busting his balls... Right Trey?? zzzZZZZZzzzz Ah shit, Trey nodded off again....

bring back records

make a new cd sober trey.

The main benefit of a DVD release would be a 5.1 audio mix. Sights are great but give me high quality sound.

Listening to my AUD of this - wow what a STASH!

Brothers and sisters! Let's stop fuzzing and just listen to some good bands. To say that Phish solely carried the torch for the Grateful Dead is insane! Panic and Phish in their prospective regions kept the jam vibe goint. Panic with their cross of the Dead and Allmans combined with their impeccable lyrical ability brought Southern rock and that aspect of the Dead back. Phish with their mixture of Dead and Zappa and just plain whimsability got the Northeast back into hippy music. These guys like and respect each other. Dave Schools favorite memory is of Panic and Phish getting Jagered up and nearly getting booted out of a venue in Atlanta in the early 90s. This Panic fan says stop this stupid fan rivalry and admire in our prospective glory!

thank you cmaxwell that is a great point im a huge panic fan but still love phish. they are both great in there own ways they both helped out the scene and most of all they do respect and like each other. The fans try to hate each other and compare who's better all the time, but neither of these two bands sit around and talk shit about each other, but that is from the panic side of it, a small few phish fans just insist on making it a rivalry and that phish is waaaaay better but um phish doesnt even make music anymore anyways props to both bands, trey just chill out for a while and get better and see everyone at langerado!!

cmaxwell, WSP, in my opinion, is more representative of the southern-rock/new orleans sound traditions than the Americana/western/psychedaelic traditions of the Grateful Dead or the jazz/fusion/funk traditions that Phish was usually tied to. Though all three bands jam (and jam well), they are very distinct in their approach to music.

why would you people be glad to see cheese gone. cheese is the shit.

you guys all suck. stupid hippies. Styx is the greatest band of all time!!!

just kidding. But I agree, whats with all the arguing?? I've never really got that. Why does everyone talk about the past and who inherited what from who. Personally, I don't groove at all to WSP, or to cheese. I wouldn't follow them, I'll see them if they come through though. But I will travel to see Yonder Mtn, Hot Buttered Rum, Blue Turtle Seduction, and (non jam band) Mason Jennings.

We all like to dance to a good jam, as long as we're all supporting live music--the more bands the merrier, why does there have to be THE ONE TRUE BAND?? That only happened once, and since then there have been many wonderful jam bands. And a lot of them don't need stadiums to fit in--it makes the friends you make at shows that much more intimate.

phish owns WSP! PEople, lets stop the bickering they both are great, but there is no comparison

THANKS FOR THE NEW RELEASE...

hikerobby makes the point there is no one true band! If we got into ticket sales, we would be in the destructive world of hip hop. Everybody is bringing something to the table in the most earnest form of art. Let's hate pop in all its ugly forms! A buddy of mine who dabbles with the guitar gave me the light I needed to appreciate Phish. His view is that as an amateur player it is unbelievable that they execute the chord changes and other technical aspects they did on a nightly basis. So again, let's all dance and enjoy some good music!

And lexslamman, thanks for the post. Let's all admire some damn good art together, and do a little intelligent debate!

Raoul Duke: Look, there's two women fucking a polar bear!
Dr. Gonzo: Don't tell me these things. Not now man.

Best Stash ever played. I was at this crazy show. Only a couple hundred people there. It was in a tiny Gym with the bleachers off to the sides of the stage. Just floor space in front. Trey lost his mind during this show...and so did many others there. After all, it's Florida.

Woke up to 5-21-00 Radio City Music Hall.....if you havn't played this show in a while, please do. WOW. Dirt, Diesese, First Tube and a 26 minute Ghost...my face is melting and I'm sober, well there was a really good batch of brownies last night.....just one more tour, PLEASE.

FORT EDWARD - Rock star Trey Anastasio will appear in court this afternoon to answer felony charges that he possessed heroin and a variety of other drugs as he drove through Whitehall in December.


Anastasio, former leader of the rock band Phish, is facing felony drug possession charges and driving while ability impaired, a misdemeanor.

He was arrested early Dec. 15 after police saw his car swerving and allegedly found him with an assortment of prescription medications, including hydrocodone, Percocet and Xanax, for which he had no prescription.

Washington County District Attorney Kevin Kortright said Anastasio was carrying more than 60 pills, weighing more than a half an ounce, enough to warrant the felony charge. He also possessed the unknown substance, which was then identified as heroin in the State Police laboratory.

Kortright has said it is unlikely that Anastasio will receive any jail time
