After 106 Phish shows, it's safe to say, I'm a one guitar per band man.

[deadphan]

I was raised on a heavy dose of southern rock, The Outlaws taught me at a young age that there's no such thing as too many guitars

that was a fun, fun, FUN weekend thank you!

and i took Jason to see Colin Hay for his birthday two years running. we both love his music. nice guy too

[tyedyedee]

OK, i wanna play
(this is wicked hard except for my number one!)



hands down, number 1 is:
1. Neil Young and Crazy Horse in Boston (just blew me away! )
2. Jackie Greene in Pawtucket on Sandy eve (best all-around venue, company, atmosphere, show )
3. Chris Robinson Brotherhood at the 'dise in Boston (SO good! )
4. Phish in Worcester (hard time picking one show over the other, but i have to give the edge to the 2nd night )
5. Mule at Mtn Jam (again, hard to pick, but i have to give the edge to night 2, even tho it was colder than a witches tit )


Honorable mention goes to Ryan Montbleau Band, however, the 4 shows i have seen this month were ALL pretty freakin awesome, but the most memorable (for me) was the "Get Off" cover on Boston night 1 with a sit in by the opener, Mike Doughty...it was truly epic and once Carl hooks me up with copies i will be thrilled to listen to it over and over and over

[Dr. Lostreality]

oh if only I went to 5 shows in 2012. My life is sad.

[Jersey Thug]

yes yes...terribly sad. a happily married, published college professor with a baby on the way. nope, there's nothing exciting about your life at all

[James420]

Phil Lesh and Friends at the Capitol 11/18
Phish at Bader Field
Phish at SPAC
Rev Tor at StrangeCreek- The Band tribute
Phish 12/29

[gregoir]

It's interesting how people perceive music. I thought Phish 12/29 was the worst Phish show I have seen since Coventry

12/29 was definitely my least favroite of the run It was still a decent show though.

[gregoir]

12/29 was definitely my least favroite of the run It was still a decent show though.

I thought 12/29 and 12/30 were both pretty crappy. I really dug the Carini on 12/30 but that was the only thing I found to be really interesting from those two shows. Everything else was fairly standard or even below standard. Oh well. I still had fun.

[jg]

1. Avett Brothers at GOTV
2. Guns N Roses at Webster Hall

[Jersey Thug]

scratch that last one. i forgot to mention Galactic w/Corey Glover at the Stone Pony and that show was teh tittybombs.

and my honorable mention has to go to Cabinet who threw down HUGE at Mighty High Mountain Music Festival.

(thanks to the "new music that blew you away" thread for reminding me of this great set. i worked my bootie off that weekend feeding the talent and had forgotten how much i enjoyed Cabinet!)

[insolent cur]

That was fantastic too! Too may to narrow it down to 5. cur, did you ever get a recording of that Malone Bros. show?

i'm pretty sure i downloaded one...maybe off of etree. i'll check some hard drives here at home.

[Lemireacle]

Thanks! i'd love to grab a copy of that show!
