I like them, I have fun at the shows, but I can certainly understand why some people don’t. If I don’t like another bands song I don’t have to wait 13 minutes for it to end.

Songwriting is everything. And they don't have it.

Do you even Divided Sky bro?

It's a masterpiece composition by four nerds from Vermont in the 1980's.

Their songs can be kinda goofy and nonsensical.


So, like Frank Zappa, The Beatles, Ween, P-Funk, Cream, Prince, and Paul Simon et al.

And Tool


This is a great point. I hate Tool, but have enough acumen to know it is great music from top shelf musicians, but it isn't my cup of tea. I can see how people can hate phish in the same way I hate tool.

People that worry about “fanbases” are douches.
Well, it’s the fan base, all you fricking dirty hipsters, AND the shitty ‘music’.

No one with an ounce of musical talent would ever say something like this. I don’t like a lot of classical, jazz, country or hip hop, but just because it isn’t my cup of tea at the moment doesn’t mean it sucks .

If Phish, Grateful Dead, or any other jam band was playing in my back yard, I wouldn’t even open the blinds.

Easy answer, because Phish sucks.

The fans do not make it easy. Phish is my favorite band, but I don't completely center my life around them.

Saw them in Huntsville this Summer and they are still an incredible show.

Listened to Colorado 88 yesterday and that album still hits so hard for me.

Blinds wouldn't save you...the phans would already be in your kitchen drinking your beers and foraging for sustenance from Little Debbie.

Because they're a shite arse jam band and like alot of jam bands, they play to themselves and are often indifferent to the audience.

super duper mega THIS

the MB was nearly killed early on when the phish bishes (and this term includes widespread pubic and others of their ilk) used it as sort of a teenybopper clubhouse, hijacking every thread to post fanboi worship of their idols -- kind of like the letters section to 16 magazine. Eventually the mods stepped in, but the board has never fully recovered.

I'm not one to throw my status as a war veteran in somebody's face, but I don't expect youngsters to understand what we went through during the Phish-American War.

The vicious sniping, the unbearable torture... Not to mention outside agitators infiltrating and causing dissension, these dirty America-hating hippies calling us horrible names.

I'm not asking for any thanks for my service. Only understanding for what I and my comrades went though.



I feel connected to you now.
