Im 40 and wish I started listening in 1.0 I grew up in Cecil County MD so I could have gone to epic shows in Jersey Phili and MPP which I did but not until 6-27-10 6-7-09 7-30-03 2-22-03 (while at University Cinci ok not east coast there) and now I live in OH so Blossom is my venue every 5 years it seems
@@justingroff3682 MPP 6-27-10 was my first show! (That I got into anyway) They actually recorded that one and have it up on apple music, just noticed the other day and was pretty stoked 😁
This was one hell of a weekend. Managed to find my miracle a couple times and the music was fantastic. I remember watching this after it came out and seeing people we saw and recalling the camera crew around us. Good times. I even got to show Mike where the drum circle was.
God I miss those days. Phish was so freaking good until about 01. I saw most my shows from 97-99. Phish was just so good almost every single night for the whole 90’s. Obviously by 96 they really got big. Many feel it was due to what happened with Grateful Dead. I think they would of been big either way. I miss those days a lot. Ah to be young again. Getting older sucks. I’m only 43 but still.
I saw all of my Phish shows in the 90’s until last week seeing them at Madison Square Garden on the 30th and New Years Eve. First time seeing them in 24 years and while they are different now, they are still excellent. The New Years Eve show may have been the best Phish show I have ever seen. You should check them out again, they still are at a really high level as a band.

My 2nd and 3rd show. We took the ferry over each day. It was the summer before freshman year of high school. Our parents took turns driving us each day. Growing up in Burlington during this time was amazing.
This is magic, I’m gearing up to experience Dover.Mondegreen 2024, and seeing this is wild!!! I also really like the ads. “I feel more comfortable here” - lollipop gifter, I really agree with that when I go to Phish shows.
How was your experience? I thought it was an amazing time but there were also a lot of things they could have done differently. All things considered I was pretty lucky, had a great time and will deffinately be at the next one, though hopefully it's somewhere more appropriate than the Dover location.
@@kevinr.3542 God I thought the same thing. Before 9/11, Before hiatus, Before President Trump... I was in college and my biggest problem was having to go to the post office to get a money order to do Phish tickets by mail.
Great times!!! the crowd is so young here. I ran into some old friends from the touring days the other night at a JRAD show, I was with my wife and kids and they with there's. Let the good times roll.
I remember reading something about this in the Doniac Shevice. We got the tapes a few months later. Mail order was good times. Look it up kids. I was only 15 then but still wish I could have been there...I made it to Big Cyprus though. I ordered those tix over the phone. Still listening 30 years later ; )
I remember signing up for it at a show in 94. They had a pen and clipboard to sign up. God I miss those days. All you have to do is watch this and you know why they were the best years of the music.
I met Mike Gordon at the 1st Bonnaroo at about 3am. He was wearing a hoody and hat and was with this cute little mama. We could tell they were going “fast” and my boys and I were going “real real slow.” I asked him if he needed a “parachute” or some “landing gear” if you catch my drift. They said yes and I gave them both (2) 10mg Valiums from Roche (the ones with the V punched out) and they ate them. However with the (2) 40mg OxyContin they licked the coating off and then crushed them up between a dollar bill on the hood of my moms Volvo wagon. When I finally sold the Volvo 2 years later in 2004. I put flyers up in all the dorms and buildings at Michigan State University where I attended college at the time, and in description I put an asterisk saying *Mike Gordon from Phish and his Lady friend once sniffed (2) 40mg OxyContin of the hood of this car at the 2nd Bonnaroo in 2003 ! Car sold that night. Lol 😂
Yeah I was at the New Years Eve show. Also saw them the night before and that show was my first Phish show in 23 years. Those were both great shows and the NYE show was definitely the best performance I have ever seen. They are a little different now from the 90’s but I embrace it as I have changed over the years too and I think they sound as amazing as ever.
I got on the train in 94, was a jr high school kid who caught my first taste in a car full of teen age girls older than me driving around smoking weed for the thris time, went home and later listened to anything i could find by phish. Bmg used to be this cds by mail order and i got six dead cds when i was like 12 with oermission from my parents. My first show was minneapolis, told my mom i was gonna visit my grandparents and drove five hundred miles to see phish. Ended up winning backstage passes and i think i freaked fishman out talking about the daniac shevice, and i asked mike about bass since i was in jr high jazz band...next show wouldnt be till alpine 2000. That show was so much fun, my best friends camping "nugs" i wish i could go back to that moment. Such good friends, now my best buddy is gone and others have moved away and never hear from them. So strange how our youth just disappeared...
Wow I don't know how I've never seen this I guess because I didn't watch T.V. in the 90s! This show was really 🔥! Such great times and good vibes 4 all! No smart phones no computers only people, music, and fun!
My first Phish 'experience' came from CT worth my boy Charlie snd stayed with my aunt/ uncle's/ cousins for 3 nights. Unfortunately never got show tix but the parking lot was GREAT in itself. MANY good memories☝️🙏
It was the "religious decade" of my life. I was in my 20s, looking with pity on these lost hippie partying types who were all my age. In hindsight, I should have been there having some fun.
I didnt see Phish till summer 97 after graduating high school. But i can definitely tell you that summer 96, southwestern Ohio was flooded with White Blotter. Literally couldnt give it away cuz everyone had so much
Wow this takes me back. I remember watching this in my buddy's basement summer after Freshman year of college. FUUUCCKK I wanna go back! Things were so simple then!
FUCKING AWESOME, DUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!! You're a part of the greatest piece of rock film ever captured. Every time I see that ending, I pretend I'm there. Cheers, Jim.
I stumbled onto the Flatbed Jam just as those folks did, but earlier. At one point, the truck started slowly accelerating, and we were damn near sprinting to keep up. My tour buddy got tripped up and fell, so I went back to help him, but they sped off soon thereafter
Me in my Blind Melon shirt 9:31 . Impacted Wisdom teeth started in Alpine Valley and I pushed it to the Ball in pain but I had what I thought was the answer, at the time, also a bottle of listerine and a bottle of water in hand.
Saw a festy wedding at IT we later spent a few days at Acadia National Park all of us tripping face, climbing a literal straight rock face there call precipice trail. Which we didn't know what precipice meant and figured its just a hiking trail. So at the top it was super foggy only 50ft visibility just tripping hard, smoking on top this misty mountain like in our own private world, this couple walks up to us seeing we were smoking, turned out to be the couple that got married at IT like 6 days earlier. Was kinda special since by then all the kids were gone from Maine saw a few first few days after the show. Not to mention on top the mountain with the fog so thick if they were 40 ft further away we never would of seen them
I'm so glad you commented because as I was watching this taking a ride down memory lane, I saw you longboarding and in my mind thought, "this dude just woke up and said I'm gonna ride this while everyone else is packing up to go." Now I know what you were doing and now makes perfect sense! Thank you.
Phirst show was Charleston West Virginia '93 & Widespread Panic opened. It's referred to as the "GameHoist" show. They did Gamehenge & Hoist in their entirety. 2nd show was Cinncinatti Zoo '93. I saw the Gr8ful Dead 40+ times w/ Jerry Garcia from 90-95.
Probably coolest and an absolutely incredible band, note:I saw Fishman bathing in the tub, hilarious. 1st night straight magical blissful 🎶 in double time electric funk
One of the things that burnt me out on Phish was the fans. By the early 2000s I was done with the bull. A lot of grifters to deal with as you hear Bounc'n for the thousandth time. I can remember a lot of beggars. Rude, mean beggars. Got sick of it. One half would at least try to sell you a grill cheese for $5. The other half would berate you for existing. And that's why I hate hippies.

My first Son was conceived at the Clifford Ball. Good times. My first show was 12/31/91. It blew my 17 year old mind. At 44. It still does =]

My first show was also NYE @ Worcester Aud. So crazy the progression of then till today.
@johnfede7057 it's been great. I feel like I grew up with Phish. They are more than just a band.

“ waiting in line looks like a good time to me” this mayor gets it
I was 14 at the time. I lived in the next town over from Plattsburgh. So glad my parents let me go!

So stoked we still get to see these dudes play music together.

Wowza! How do I get back to the mid 90's!!?? I think as history reveals itself this was truly "The Golden Age!"

No doubt about it. Proved it again on New Year's. It's just an evolution of the band...
