Phish - 02.22.03 - Piper -- Weekapaug Groove

[@heathers1025]

I don't know HOW Fishman does these shows! He's literally a machine.

[@UglyToontown]

Heather M Sweeney How about Gordo when he starts slappin' at 13:28? Animal!

[@njtranzitband8818]

hes a god

[@thejamnasium6447]

if you got paid as much as he does per how you'd be a machine too

[@PatrickS503]

Happy 20th anniversary

[@keithmoore4334]

trey was lit up.....doin the creeper dance around the stage. they were badass back then. I remember those years.... not that they aren't now but they were on a different level then.....

[@Dandrsn420]

This was my first (of many :) phish show. Know why the crowd starts going crazy around 1:40? I WISH the camera man caught it. But staff members came out of all the entrances to the arena with with wheel barrows full of glow sticks! It was the most epic glow stick war I have ever seen! Thanks for the video anyway, great concert. Make sure to check out bathtub gin from this show. By far my favorite bathtub gin jam ever. Hopefully I'll find footage of that glow stick war someday ;-)

[@SpidermansBro]

I made my kid in the bathroom at setbreak at this show. Had one of the suites. Private bathroom. Kasey Kasum (spelling?) bought 2 of the tix (got 18 for 1600). One of my favorite Phish lil runs.

[@timharper4246]

I love stories like this😅

[@PhantasyKingpin]

Thank God I didnt know about all the phish on youtube back in when I was still in High School in 05...I would have never graduated!

[@brokebloke6291]

holy shit i had to make sure my youtube player wasn't up in speed ! damn mike!

[@ctuman]

alot of people knock on '03... i wanna do it again. it was probably the last year phish really went out & explored. it was dark, dirty and a new sound over the tour... they set out to push the limits and there are some great things in 2003. This being one of them.

[@mountainsinmistheals1149]

ctuman think I missed 3 or 4 shows in all of 2003. They took it deep every night. People have come around on 03 and now realize it was a great year. Sure they had "off" nights and some jams never took off but they were taking chances (also band and crowd were fucked up in 03)

[@juansepulveda3160]

Trust me people sleep on 04', probably my favorite Piper is that year's SPAC performance of it

[@Obiwannabe]

Who knocks 03 it's pretty highly regarded.

[@TwinPawsFWWM]

these nights in Cinci were the best shows I ever saw, what a blast

[@timharper4246]

​@@Obiwannabeid say most people sh!t on 03-04 and i don't understand why

[@elee2968]

Was just listening to a random tune, noticed the date and was like ohhhh, wait, I was there!!

[@Doopes]

this was a sick weekapaug though... great transition!!

[@kevinmurtagh4996]

If I were at this show, I would have maybe had a seizure when they fully dropped into Weekapaug. The excitement when Trey started teasing the riff, and then Mike starts the bass line, must have been palpable. But once Fish starts THE Weekapaug drumbeat, that’s when I might have fainted or something lol. Just so great.

[@phishingtube]

No other phish like it. The best

[@rja861]

Have to watch every time it pops up again on my home page. 6:33 blast off

[@aaroncooper5762]

I still remember the glow stick war. What a great run.

[@laurenelter1614]

I remember that too!!!

[@edwardharlan]

Great run, Great shows and a really fun vibe....good memories of the Cincy 2003 shows!!!

[@experimentalelectronica5016]

The red haired one is pretty inventive with.. I counted like 10 seperate guitar tones..Hendrix would shiver in his drawers.. and then Paige side sounds like George Duke...

[@calvinbaxter7151]

@@IgnatiusChinaski i mean i bet jimi would get a shiver. Bc good musicians and moment creators recognize when others are doing something amazing. Comments like these seem kinda ego based. Jimi and trey are different but kinda the same in the big picture, no?

[@Obiwannabe]

I LOVED the growl of the cooking Reverb tubes its so sweet.

[@kevinmurtagh4996]

It looks like he had the deluxe going through a 4x12 cab. Is that what he always did when using the deluxe? I swear I’ve seen the deluxe itself mic’d before...

[@Obiwannabe]

@@kevinmurtagh4996 I remember on trey tour that year it was by itself. It was a weird time, maybe they were still playing with sound, but yeah I see what u mean.

[@christophergoff102]

Always a delight SC!!
