Im going for a quick Phishing trip later this summer

Photobucket I decided Sunday that I will be going to a couple more Phish shows this tour. I might hit up Pittsburgh on Thurs for a quick trip, since I have off on Friday. But I have to be back in the Philly area at noon for lunch with a new friend. She is more important than standing in a field with smelly hippies. The scene has changed, its younger now and the knowledge for the music is lack, rightfully so, with the quality of music being played is totally wacked at the moment.

Im feeling a llama opener, they havent played it yet but im feeling it.

Late August I will be attending the Merriweather show down outside of B-more. This venue is actually pretty cool. It has a summer camp feel to it. The sound is average at best from the lawn and its pretty steep. I dont have tickets to this show yet, but if they keep flubbing songs, I feel like I wont have a problem picking one up in the parking lot. Also, from the feel at Camden, there are a lot of tickets floating around right now.

After the Merritweather show, I plan on getting in the car and driving all night to the Saratoga show, several hours north. This will put me in a good situation to sleep during the day and have enough energy to make my way back that night for work on Monday.

That will conclude the summer Phish tour for this year, not sure how well it will end but it should be a good time. Like I said, the crowd base is a little young and dirty but the few older heads who still show up are quality people with a knowledge for the music. Im just adding to my show account, thats so lame. Actually, not to long after this mini-tour, I will be flying to Red Rocks to see Ween and visit a couple friends out that way.

Ween is a whole other story...
