I was on the rail for these 3 shows and this little rain section was fantastic :)

[@jantinucci]

MAN! I'm envious!!! You have a lifetime of greatness to explore! Are you new to discovering Phish or the Jam genre? String Cheese Incident / Widespread Panic / moe. / Disco Biscuits / Govt. Mule / JRAD / Tedeschi Trucks Band / Twiddle / Lettuce ........ Good gosh! I could go on! Enjoy!

[@PhuryousOne]

Good lord, the sound is crisp and full of punch. It sounds great!

[@michaelc3693]

Nothing in the world like being in the pit at a Phish concert during a rainstorm. I hope that is what heaven is like, dancing in the rain during a Tweezer jam that goes on for eternity...

[@foryourconvenience4503]

That's poetic as fuck.

Whoa whoa whoa.. outdoor venue?

[@brainj5752]

Ah yes.. the Mexico venue.. warm rain betcha

[@johntuseth635]

The level of musicianship Phish has is so high above any other band it's amazing. They can play so many different styles their shows can have completely different vibes which I love.

[@pauljasper5049]

You obviously haven't heard of Jimmy Herring and Dave Schools.

[@johntuseth635]

Lol I've seen panic multiple times too Phish is my fav tho

[@HGZMO]

Dig the evolution 2016-2019. More crunchy and digging the tone and current trey era. Cheers

[@lindsaywren4696]

Yeah everyone needs to check out Aquarium rescue unit... Or listen to shows when Jimmy played on stage ... I personally believe he was more machine gun than trey... Give a listen for y'all self

[@picklejalapeno]

this randomly came on one day when me and my brother were listening to the dead, & it caught my attention so fast I loved every minute of this and I always come back to this performance it’s amazing! I’ve been a Phish head ever since

[@dalenedavis73]

Real jam session on this one. If this doesn’t move you to another level of love.... you are not listening. This band is just in a zone. Love it

[@chriscovino9246]

This string and the Tweezer/ Caspian from Magnaball bring it hard.

[@nathantodd2757]

Kinda new to Phish, reluctant Deadhead, but this is by far my favorite so far. Holy shitake! Phunkin so hard, and then u realize it's raining... Just got emailed that my first show was postponed a year....waaht waaahh! Damn COVID!

[@Msmokav68]

It'll be worth the wait!!!

[@JohnSmith-fq7hj]

Trust me i am so pissed about the summer. was lookin to be pretty sweet i cant travel anymore so just the noblseville shows for me. but phish was set 4 a 3 day run here for the 1st time in years so dissapointing

I remember being there in the glorious rainfall, dancing with abandon, enjoying every moment!!!

[@kenmurphy6792]

What !! My "namesake" is a "Phish-Head" ?!? Lol !! ~~ I've never been to a Phish concert myself. Guess you could say that I'm just discovering their music. I understand they .. "helped to "spawn a new wave of bands oriented around group improvisation and extended instrumental grooves" .. (according to Wikipedia) .. "Phish is an American rock band that was founded at the University of Vermont in Burlington, Vermont in 1983. The band is known for musical improvisation, extended jams, blending of genres, and a dedicated fan base. The band consists of guitarist Trey Anastasio, bassist Mike Gordon, drummer Jon Fishman, and keyboardist Page McConnell, all of whom perform vocals, with Anastasio being the primary lead vocalist. " ~~~ "The band was formed by Anastasio, Gordon, Fishman and guitarist Jeff Holdsworth, who were joined by McConnell in 1985. Holdsworth departed the band in 1986, and the quartet lineup has remained in place since then. Their lineup stable, Phish performed together for 15 years before beginning a two-year hiatus in October 2000. The band regrouped in late 2002, but disbanded in August 2004 after a farewell performance at their Coventry Festival in Vermont. They reunited in March 2009 for a series of three consecutive concerts at Hampton Coliseum in Hampton, Virginia, and have since resumed performing regularly." ~~~ Guess I had better start "catching up" !!! ~~~ **Kenneth Michael Murphy ... ```````

[@JohnSmith-fq7hj]

Yeah bro weve all checked the wiki page no need to paste it here lol jk

Welcome! Phish is always under the radar until you find out that they are HUGE! Guess who plays MADISON SQUARE GARDEN in NYC for New Years’Eve??? That’s reserved ALWAYS for PHISH. They are The biggest and the fuckin baddest in all the land!!!!!

[@bryansmith3009]

Welcome

[@juniperpruniper4935]

Ultimate troll job

[@lloydlanglois7958]

These guys do most of what they do spontaneously. Frigging amazing band!

[@MrForestExplorer]

I always felt Phish somehow tapped into the Galactic Maya and their next-level super-advanced psychedelic civilization. Read Daniel Pinchbeck's "2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl" for more on this idea... (about the Galactic Maya, not Phish's connection - that's all my own felling). Stoked they're playing in Mexico on the regular now.

[@PHGRP]

This is exactly why I don’t trust KZbin. I don’t believe 47 people exist that would downvote this video. ITS A CONSPIRACY I TELL YA!!!

[@mattferrara6472]

I'm not even thru the Sand yet and am just gigging in my car. So nice I love 3.0

[@WesMcClung1]

Haters can complain all they want, but I think 3.0 (2012 to today especially) is putting on some of the best shows Phish has ever done. Sure Trey needed some time to adjust to playing and jamming sober, but you can tell that he's pushed through to another level of mastery (Case in point: Alpine Ruby, Tahoe Tweezer)

[@mattferrara6472]

Wes McClung Bakers Dozen is disgusting!

[@benjaminlux8501]

Excellent full sound on this clip! and good, funky playing that is tight, energetic, and right in the pocket..Laser-Phocused Phish! Wish I could have been there..although I've been to more amazing shows than one person should be allowed perhaps; after discovering them in 1989, and starting out to shows the next year, I'm just grateful they're still going strong and keeping it interesting! Keep on jammin'

[@donnajess]

I've enjoyed watching them evolve over the last 27 years that I've been a phan. In fact, I honestly feel like they're part of my extended family, like we've all grown up together. I love my Phish Phamily so much!

[@TheRealForrestGeorge]

if you can heal the symptoms but not affect the cause it’s quite a bit like trying to heal a gunshot wound with gauze if you instead attempt to wrest the pistol from the hand then I would not be able to equate my life with sand flowing through the hourglass pushing through the funnel turn once more while racing all your siblings for the tunnel slide and let the silicone embrace you as you fall then bounce and land you let your brothers crush you to the wall I would choose my own religion and worship my own spirit but if he ever preached to me I wouldn’t want to hear it I’d drop him, a forgotten god, languishing in shame and then if I hit stormy seas I’d have myself to blame

[@TheRealForrestGeorge]

I feel I've never told you the story of the ghost that I once knew and talked to of whom I'd never boast But this was my big secret how I get ahead and never have to worry I'd call him instead His answer came in actions He never spoke a word Or maybe I lay down the phone before he could be heard I somehow feel forsaken Like he had closed the door I guess I just stopped needing him as much as once before But maybe he's still with me the latch was left unhooked He's waiting in the wind and rain I simply haven't looked
