Phish - 7/30/14 "Meatstick"

[@coletaylor4014]

I think I've listened to this like 20-30 times this week.

[@aidanclarke4676]

[@emanuelarriaza3710]

Saw them yesterday and it was time for the meatstick

[@SAEmusic7]

Phish 3.0 has officially found it's collective "voice", IMHO. Love it. Meatstick (musically only) always makes me think of fire on the mountain but this funked-out version is just nuts!!! x-D

[@Piperredworm]

always gets me too, that fire on the mtn into.

[@Piperredworm]

Piperredworm always

[@joeyaracri8176]

Does familiarize fire on the mountain, I do agree.

[@joeyaracri8176]

Joey Aracri Syntax error?

[@LacedBacon]

almost the same chords, just a "halfstep" down ;D

[@Someonece]

That Fuego tease was sexy. Really fun night glad I got to hear it live

[@Someonece]

This is still my favorite show I've been to. First set was fun as hell, second set had great jams including this one, and a Lizards encore! Hopefully I'll see one soon that will top it.

[@bozokarl]

Damn /I gotta go see Phish again it's been like 10 years since I saw them last.

[@glass9411]

bozokarl Well? Have you seen them?

[@Roll_Todd]

I think 1.25 is the sweet spot

[@bryansmith3009]

Mama in the front row had the dance down so awesome

[@imribs]

I was at both P-town shows and this Meatstick was the highlight for me. If you could only feel the base moving through your body.

[@brendanmcmahon1162]

I love when that happens! I swear to all that is holy that Halloween 2014, don't even remember what song, Mike dropped a bomb and time slowed down and I was, without the slightest effort, shifted about a foot backwards and to my left at a 45 degree angle

[@Dunderfut]

I'm never gonna forget those two incredible nights. My first Phish show/s. Perfect venue for it. You guys killed it. Never danced so much before in my life lol. Can't wait for the next tour!!

[@brentmahlman]

5:50 is nasty! That's officially what I'd call a "soup kitchen from Dirty Mike and Da Boyz"!

[@dedfishj]

phish's fire on the mountain

[@brendanmcmahon1162]

Excellent point, but I much prefer meatstick to fire on the mountain

[@sc300man]

I definitely see your point. I love Phish, but Fire On The Mountain is a whole other level.

I'm trapped here as my senses bleed I can't recall which things I need You show up late and stumble in Unsure if you are still Corrine My captive gaze inside your eyes Reveal a thing you've tried to hide Attempting to record this view Reflections drive me out of you Time for the meatstick, Bury the meatstick, Take out the meatstick time Whoa, shocks my brain Whoa, shocks my brain But long before this scene concludes The end I'm seeking still eludes My every effort to apply My will to moments passing by But every time we say goodbye The pain I can't identify Reveals to me the hidden door That leads to several moments more Time for the meatstick, Bury the meatstick, Take out the meatstick time Whoa, shocks my brain Whoa, shocks my brain (Japanese lyrics) Meetostikku jikan Meetostikku kakushite Meetostikku toridashite jikan Tou tou atama ga shock Tou tou atama ga shock

[@genuineimpulse9134]

Thank God, NOW I can really embarrass my wife, singing the Japanese parts!!

[@matthewhelander9800]

Always loved this song and no dance moves attached , all fall down again, snooze oh snooze then afterwards it all comes back in focus again (shocking is the finger in the light socket too ,after warned is the jolt ) to spin the lyrics is just the cog in the wheel, personally I love or live for a good nap

[@SignManJoe]

Did Charlotte, MPP 1&2, and these 2. Awesome run for my ex and I. It was our first pit experience. Great memories. Lizards encore kicked ass. Would give anything to relive those moments with her.

[@barrymccockner458]

I know that feel.

The first time I heard this song on acid I heard one voice traveling through a microphone to another microphone was pretty stellar

[@roncv26]

I had some liquid, and I threw on Live Phish volume 11 and just bugged out and got weird for about three hours. Another time I just threw on Story of the Ghost and got weird. Giggles abound! Perfect Music to trip to, this, Ween, and you got a throw on Tool.

[@toridark325]

@@roncv26 my favorite thing to do other than going to a show live. Those nights can really get weird because you don't have to figure stuff out, like where's your car, the bathrooms, your name... It's what my fiance and I like to do for a date night, I always somehow love him more.

Remember Atlanta 99 they closed the first set with an instrumental version of it then encored it think there was a little drummer boy that night

The thing about Phish is when they’re good they’re better than any band, and when they suck they suck worse than any band.

[@johngiuliano8750]

PhishGuy20 They don’t often suck but their occasional sucks boldly suck where no other band has sucked before

[@johngiuliano8750]

PhishGuy20 Mexican Cousin, Anything But Me, More, Friday are a few songs that take up precious David Bowie time

[@Anthony-df4bs]

Am I missing something here? What is the obsession people have with them?

[@cheebalasvegas]

you are missing it, move along.

[@MARLEYFANcbr]

What you are missing is: extended jams, deep bass, amazing drums, perfect keyboards, crazy light shows, crowd involvement, hot ladies, community, having fun with thousands of your friends, a lot of weed, wild weekends, touring the country and much more. It is never too late to join in the fun, you would love it.

[@mauryfeinsilber1059]

I went to my first Phish concert this past July, doing so more or less for the heck of it, and it was a fantastically beautiful experience I hope to never forget, utterly sublime. I think the thing is seeing/hearing/feeling the music being performed live and being with thousands of others who are just having such a great time and who seem so glad to be sharing it with you, just dancing and letting go, that's where it catalyzes into something that I'm not ashamed to say was a truly joyous and spiritual experience. I'm about the same age as the guys in the band and saw people there who were older than me and yes, there were even babies and children, the common thread being everyone having a great time! I, too, hope you'll give it a try and, indeed, join in the fun.

[@flapjackmcbud4611]

basically, you have to see them live

[@MARLEYFANcbr]

yup. Phish is great on C.D. but unless you see them live you really don't really see the whole picture.
