Phish - 8/10/2018 - "Runaway Jim"

[@brucebrandy9433]

The Runaway Makisupian Jimalope....I was and still am astonished at this genius.

[@ryanst.pierre1862]

A rare animal indeed

This is a go-to video to show people phish. An absolute mastery of their songs and playing together.

First song of my very first show in '98. By the time I got home from that show I was 17! Jim was my 1st lot shirt. Always will hold a special place for me in the Phishverse.

[@Soul-OnFire]

Thank all the gods that there is a PHISH on this silly ball of mud. 👍

[@jbcbhbrb]

At MSG a few years back, I had the pleasure of sitting with Mr. Anastasio (Trey's Dad). We were chatting a bit during set-break and I asked him if he could hear the band play any song, what would it be? He thought for a second, looked at me and in a voice that can be best described as Frank Costanza (from Seinfeld), said "I think that I would like to hear, a Runaway Jim." They didn't play it that night, but I remember seeing The Dude of Life a short time after that show and was telling him about it, and for some reason I mistakenly said that Mr. A had said "I think that I would like to hear Run Like An Antelope." Which The Dude had co-written, he seemed a bit disappointed when I quickly corrected myself. This medley of the two made me think of that.

6-16-95 was my favorite Jim and is from the same venue. Great YEM too at the same show with Boyd.

[@marccasadei6943]

I gotta know how much of this was scripted. I know their improvisational skills are off the chart, and Kris in the light booth is as locked in as any member of the band to any song they want to pull out. But seriously, that is too smooth, too tight. Just an amazing performance to pull off like they are just messing around

[@johnmartin5153]

Solid song structures with designated improv sections. The listening exercises they used to do is how they honed the ability to hear another member change just one note in a mode or scale and everyone adhere to it instantly. That is the true skill of phish. Other than that maybe a hey page let’s run makisupa out of runaway. That’s basically what’s going on here. Got to take into account they’ve been running through these songs for decades at this point. This is no big deal at all to them

[@colinferris5590]

So I'm pretty new to Phish but I really like them. Can anyone explain the joke there where John says "let me string together some words."?

[@davefuck5251]

Colin Ferris the line in makeup policeman is I sat down on my couch and rolled myself a blunt that's why they are laughing

[@Soul-OnFire]

Well it’s kind of an inside joke in which Trey seemed to be putting Jon on the spot by saying, “what’s that you said Fishman?” Knowing that Jon was not ready (he didn’t even have the mic in position) And in other ways the band likes to put Jon on the spot purely for amusement and comedic reasons. For example when they have Jon take front and center to single Prince’s song ‘purple rain’ which he sings beautifully of course 😉 and also usually is accompanied by an outstanding vacuum cleaner solo. (If you have never seen or heard this then please please do look up a video or copy of this fine specimen) But to sum it up I’d say that simply, As best friends do, Trey likes to try and tease Fish a bit, (it’s not quite so easy to play an instrument perfectly and improvise something genius to say) Trey makes it look easy, Page as well, but Fishman is more like me and blanks out a bit, stuttering until Page rescues him from Trey’s impromptu mid-song spotlight. (All in good fun)

[@deweytucker5413]

They have improvised the lyrics for several decades. Ran out of words and just laughed it off.
