A Phish Story

You probably know by now that I am a MAJOR Phish Fan. I first saw them in 1994, and by the third song, I was totally hooked. So when I heard about a special 2 day Phish festival just 90 minutes from where I was living, I was dying to go. The only problem...camping and lots of Phish music. To me that sounded ideal, but I couldn't get anyone to go with me, so I missed out on The Clifford Ball. They called it The Clifford Ball after an aviator by that name, and over 70,000 people were there, making it the biggest Phish concert at that time and the best attended rock concert of 1996. AND I MISSED IT! HOWEVER, they have just released a 7 DVD set of the entire event, with lots of special features in the packaging, like stamps and postcards! Oh yeah, and the music... it's always about the music. Enjoy this taste from the DVD.

World's Worst iPod: It's a Miracle by Barry Manilow
It's a miracle that both Jonathan and KItty wanted to hear Barry Manilow this morning. They were not alone. Plenty of Fanilow's called in to vote yes. One caller claimed to have seen Manilow in concert 25 times!
A Fine Monday Afternoon

Hey everybody, we were thrown for a loop by the twist this week, but were able to make one of our "oldie but a goldie" songs fit the mold. We have a few songs that we have played consistently over the years, and we are very happy that we will be...

Twist and Turn
We just received word of what this weeks twist is, and...oh boy. We need to take our "signature song" and cut it to only 2:30 without going over. Amberstein does not simply play 2:30 versions of our songs...so this could be interesting. Last...
