Phish is back!!

[Adam8281]

In case any Phish fans don't know, Phish just reunited to play 3 concerts in Hampton, VA last week. These were their first shows in over four years. (They'll also be doing a tour this summer - I hope I can see them in Asheville.) To celebrate, Phish is giving away free 256kbps mp3s of ALL 3 CONCERTS (about 10 hours of music), and they sound AWESOME! You can download them from their website.

Just downloaded the first show yesterday!

Gin and Juice was never covered by Phish. It was a mislabeled mp3 that got put into circulation over 10 years ago.

This song has not been performed or recorded by the Vermont band Phish .

It was originally done by Dr. Dre, Snoop, and a NYC hip-hop artist named Phish, and has been covered by a bluegrass band from Texas called the Gourds. The latter circulates on MP3, and is sometimes incorrectly labelled as by Phish.

etree is usually lossless (flac)

Sometimes you will see shn files (I don't know why shn)

Converting to mp3 is easy enough with foobar

shn was a popular precursor to flac, this was about 8 years ago... holy crap 8 years.

 

[Adam8281]

I will say after listing to the first two concerts in their entirety that Trey's singing sounds worse than usual IMO, although the music sounds good as ever (and that's really the only reason I love Phish, since the lyrics are mostly meaningless anyway

:thumbsup:

pretty epic. Hampton 2003 sucked so much I didn't think they would ever recover. 1st night 1st set would have blown my mind.

Hope they're tight again. As in mid-late 90s tight.

 

[Adam8281]

I've listened to the first two concerts so far (will listen to the 3rd tomorrow), and so far the 1st night 1st set is definitely my favorite.

I mean, Suzie Greenberg? wtf awesome. one of my favorite memories was a Suzy ->Haley's at the MCI center in...98? 99?

Divided Sky is my favorite, then throw in Chalkdust and Stash, Bowie, Fluffhead...wth? that shit should be illegal.
